I removed my catalytic converter and it has been one of the best things I could have done. It is a pain to remove but it is worth all the profanity uttered. The removal of the cat along with an free flowing exhaust can allows the bike to breath and signifcantly improves performance, engine temps and sound. I have over 1000 miles on mine without it I have had no issues.
Hey fellas, Im new to the site. I work at a Yamaha dealership and my cost on the exhaust is $550 so before I take my two favorite tools (BFH and a pry bar) to my cat I wana make sure it is worth it. Pros vs Cons sorta thing. Any mileage increase or decrease? Do you have any other mods that might contribute to the benefit of no cat? Ive got smog caps and the next day or two a sprocket. Not too worried about runnin lean without the cat.
