EPA/Pipes
This EPA thing has me a little confused. What would you do------I'm installing V&H BS Staggered; but from all of the articles I'm reading----it's not suppose to be done on 06 Models. The dealer said that they would put them on and don't worry about it. The parts manager said that he has a guy who will take care of me when it comes time for inspection. Again, I'm new to Harleys---Do the stock pipes on the Deluxe (06) have CATS vs the BS Staggered? What I'm afraid of is that since I'm in the military---I may move somewhere where I can't find someone who will "take care of me" when it comes time for inspection. Please advise me. The rules; in my mind--say don't do it--but it seems that none of the experienced Harley guys will be paying any attention to it.

RE: EPA/Pipes
This is an item of much debate.
If you want to be technical, it has been illegal to replace your pipes since 1979.
I just read a pretty good article that spells it all out in one of the mags this month. I will see what it is when I get home tonight.
Just for the record, I'm also military and I plan on losing my stock setup this spring on my '05 Softail.

yes, I have done my own research and I also saw the article in the mag this month. I have it around here somewhere. So I agree---it has always been illegal but I truly don't understand why it is gaining so much momentum right now.

Change the pipes, and enjoy.
