    Angry Catalytic converter removal

    Anyone changed over the exhaust system on a 2016 F3-T to an after market muffler like Two Brothers. They have a muffler which will fit, BUT leaves in place the catalytic converter.. Which in turn, robs power from the bike. I am looking for an after market unit which give good sound and allws for the removal of the catalytic converter. Suggestions?

    Thank you in advance

    Spyder #2 - 2012 RT SM5. Traded in after 24,000 miles.
    Spyder #3 - 2015 F3 SM6. Put 13,000 miles on and sold it.
    Spyder #4 - 2017 F3 SM6. Too good of a deal to pass up!

    I used the above mentioned Lamont "bypass/test" pipe and kept the factory muffler on my 2016 F3L. I think it sounds great. You might want to try this first. You may not need an after market muffler.

    I have Lamonster's cat bypass pipe with an Akrapovic muffler on our 2014 RTL. It sounds awesome!

    One of our group just put the Lamont's bypass pipe and baffle on his F3 with the stock muffler and it sounds great.
