hi all, i know this has been covered somewhere along the way, but i had the header pipes off today off my 1200, i decided i was gonna de-cat it the cheap arse way!!( only untill i can afford the remus pipes!!), smashin that cat out was 'kin ard i'll say!!, but i managed to smash about 85% of it out leaving a nice big passage for all them lurvly gases to flow out!!, the bit i left in was the bit i couldnt get to, or see for that matter coz of the bend in the pipe, anybody see any reason whether this should matter???, i mean will the bit i left in stay put or over time do think it will burn/break up??, coz its 'kin ard stuff!!!

It might be a bit late, but mark71 did a very neat job of his "catalectomy" -

The pics show how neat he managed to make it. You need to scroll down a bit to get to the pics.

yeah, saw that mate!, neat job, ive considered going that route, its gotta be worth considering if the end results the same as using the remus headers just without the cost and still looks standard!
