Just FYI for Connecticut Spyder Owners, CT DMV does not require emissions testing of motorcycles, so removing the CAT is not a problem. On the other hand, BRP would probably say that it violates the warranty. But then again, riding them probably violates the warranty.

Removing the catalytic converter MIGHT cause you warranty trouble :shocked:...
IF, the part that implodes; can have the source of it's damaged traced back to the shenanigans that were pulled in the exhaust system..
So if you tear a handlebar grip, or your headlights burn up; you're still going to have an intact warranty to replace it! ;)

If you remove it....KEEP IT! And if necessary you can reinstall it BEFORE you take it to the dealer for service.

That is the way to handle it. Get rid of the POS and if you need to put it back on, you can.

Ever done some kind of study as to the removal actually worked for the vapor smells? I have seen some messages saying yes others no.

I ordered an Attwood blower to pump cooler air in to the new intake and it came with a warning label... I wonder if they knew I was installing it on a Spyder....
