Yep...living your life CAN result in death.

Best to stay inside and NEVER go out.

I bet cash money its the catalytic converter. Every time he rev's the engine the needle spikes. How about trying it on a non-cat bike...now that would be interesting.

Don't laugh but if you want to see that needle spike....put the meter in front of your dishwasher at home while it is running...meanwhile while I am worried about EMF I look in my mirror and.....

Yeah they don't even show what kind of bike it is. I know the stator kicks out a huge amount of EMF so who knows. Some are trying to say it will cause colon or testicular cancers.
My thing is I ride close to 15K a year, plus with all that **** we breath in ... I don't know. Two of my riding buddies have dealt with throat/mouth cancer in the last couple of years, but of course they may have picked up that virus that causes cervical cancer in woman through oral sex, but that's another discussion. Of course the last time we discussed that kind of thing, the thread got removed.

I dunno but I wouldn't think that a cat would have anything to do with electric or magnetic fields.... more like the stator someone mention...
