2010 FLHTCU/ new headers/ emissions
Hello all, I have a 2010 FlHTcu , and the first thing I did was change pipes. Stock headers, Bassani Open BaffleS. The sound is butter, but not loud enough for me, and very hot running. I learned from here that the 2010's have the cat in the headers, and I can get new ones from a number of places. Super!
Here is my question:
Im in Tucson AZ, and have been researching the EPA rules about messing with removing the cat, and of course thats a no-no. Doesnt bother me really, as I have run straight pipes on my past bikes (1976 Flh Electraglide & a 2000 Dyna wide Glide) I never had emissions problem come up.
My question is, If I change to new headers, will I be able to pass emmissions? Or does it come down to paying to switch out headers every time I need testing.
I would do it myself, but I'm disabled & just can't do it anymore.
thx

Oh yeah - hadnt thought about that...since they became standard in 2010...and an EPA requirement - you're probably screwed if you remove it at all
