"I started with the Sert but soon took it off... and had a Thundermax with Auto tune put on."

This is what I was referring too.. And whatI was asking about...

 

Sorry man I though you asked how did you take the sert off. I must not of understood the question !

 

Oh !
When I started with my bike and the D&D pipes I had a Sert installed and dynoed at the dealer. Made more changes and it needed to be dynoed again. Was having a problem with the sert too. When I did the 103 build I took the sert off and installed the TM A/T and that's when I took the sert off.

 

This is just what I needed to know, thank you!!

 

Your Cats are in the Mufflers though, Correct? I am reading the Cat was moved to the Header Collector beginning in 2010 I believe?

 

Mine is an '09 and it was in the header pipe assembly.

 

catalytic converters became mandatory in '09 in california, and '10 for the rest of the country. surprised that one model would have a cat if not required by law. perhaps all bikes built after a certain date were cat equiped, regardless of the year model?

 

My question is, I'm gunna take my cat and baffle out of my stock 2014 SB (cats in the muffler for my bike) and put on a DK baffle. As far as the law goes, all I find on it is from back in 2010 people talking about it, are they actually enforcing this cat change or anything? I'm in TX btw and they do inspections, anyone know if they check exhaust, (first time with a bike registered here) because from what I gather really only California is the only ones making a stink out of the cats

 

So in the still relatively free state of South Carolina, we have no inspection for cars or motorcycles. I believe North Carolina has no emissions test for Motorcycles either. So what gets my goat are that I've seen too many people complaining about these sorts of things, yet they still vote democrat. So anyway, my jeep cat sounded like a maraca it was rusted out so bad :-)

 

It seems as though bikes without cats isn't a big deal, from what I see, sales on pipes without them hasn't suffered?
