Thanks to all who responded to my post about the exhaust dilemma with the
air-cooled California models. The crossover is know longer available from
the dealer or anywhere else. I am leading towards switching over to federal.
Include the cat but seal off the EGR. I'll have to mount the O2 sensor
somewhere where the two legs come together. I will also most likely go with
BusDepot for parts. We do not have emissions testing here in Billings,
Montana. Mostly do to the pollution from 3 refineries, Billings is exempt
from any Federal law. If you live here it's like being a smoker whether you
want to or not. That plus I will be relocating in the near future.....

Thanks again
