Call me a tree hugger, I don't care. I feel the need to help keep the air that we breathe as clean as possible for future generations (I have a one year old son). So here is the conundrum: I want a better performing and cooler running bike but don't really want to remove the catalytic converter. Is this possible, or should I just go in the corner and drink my soy latte?

I vote for the corner...

 

Take the cat out and wear a gas mask. You can get one for your kid as well.

 

Trade up to a Prius

 

Ha Ha, keep the comments coming. Seriously though, I am sure that many states will follow California's emission control laws. I would be a little nervous if I was in the after market exhaust business.

 

Pretty soon they'll have people farting in plastic bags to have it recycled.

 

you know, I am sick of hearing this bs. Stay away from my toy's, the average bike rider puts 5-7k on a bike. This crowd is going to ruin the only piece of nostalgia around. go find a corner and drink your latte or whatever. I guess you want all the roads swept up to so you don't get dirt blown in your face

 

Sorry, but I do not want to see the Republik of Kalifornia used as a guide for laws throughout the nation. I love the environment as much as the next person but California takes everything to the extreme, like say, their emissions laws, traffic laws, right to bear arms, etc...

Glad I live in Texas.

 

... or a Volt or Leaf ... seriously, I vote corner, too ....

... must be the hormones from the soy talkin' ....
