Catalytic Converter

Hi All
My handbook says my Firestorm is fitted with a catalytic converter. I assume it is in the exhaust end cans. I have Carbon Co tri ovals fitted so will she fail an mot on emmissions?

Not likely
They don't do emmisions tests on bikes

So fit a jet kit and juice it up a bit

Grant (Silentjewel), no worries for Mot time then

Hope you got your fuel guage sorted ,us guys with the older 'storms dont have them fitted

...just the wee red light

Just the later ones had fuel guages fitted Mike , after doing a search on here it seems 2001 onwards had them as standard

RLOD is all ive got

Maybe confusing the PAIR system on US bikes? Never heard of a cat on one though.

After I'd typed it I thought "someone will react" and sure enough. What a cute little pussy.

I can't see how you know that cat had been drinking.

Surely he'd have fallen off?

Don't come much narrower than a cat's.

Still, I guess it's all to do with what you've got to insert.
