I keep an extra headpipe on hand so I can gut it for my friends buying new bikes. I've done quite a few of these for people.

 

PM sent...I think. I'm trying to do this from my Android phone here at work. Things don't always work right though.

Like spell check. >.<

 

I have also gutted mt cat and cut it like JC Turbo did and buffed the welds down to where you could not tell it had been welded back. The heat shields cover the welds. I kept my original pipe and went to the dealer where i bought my Limited and they gave me a take off pipe from a bike that they added aftermarket exh on before the owners took delivery. They would not take any money for the pipe. I have the screamin eagle mufflers and they have a deeper sound now but not loud at all. I am pleased with it. The bike runs better and much cooler.

I have a 2010 Ultra Classic,Wife is screaming about the excess heat, came from the dealer with big sucker intake, race tuner, and SE fatShotz mufflers. I then did the SE 103 kit. With this combo, I would assume that retuning would be in order???

 

i was at baer harley over the weekend and i saw a guy buy a 2011 sg w/103 package so we were talking and they pulled his bike out and that thing sound great.i said what exhaust you buy he said none he cut the baffles out of his stock and was going home to gut the cat.he also said there was nothing that had to be done to the ecm.his dad was there with a 2009 sg and his sound even better and relized his dont have cats he said the same no problems plus he had his since the end of 08.also the dealer did the install on the new bike

 

Nice job. Bought a catless head pipe for mine as my welding is less than perfect, trust me. Guess you migged it, right?

 

You could always cut the pipe, take the cat out then take the pipe to a local muffler shop and have them weld it. I bet it would only cost you $15 at the most.

 

Watchin this

 

Whatcha watchin for? Get to cuttin. Very easy to do. Getting the CAT material out takes a while and local shop charged $25 to weld it back together.
