RE: CA emissions controls



Has anybody converted their CA spec bike to a 49 state model (i.e., removed
the extra crap)?  I'd be interested in taking this step, but am concerned
about my lack of experience in this area.  I am under the impression that
this is a simple process on some bikes and much more complicated on others,
depending on the CA spec mods.  

I know that the CA mods on my '98 Trident essentially emasculated the poor
bike (from a stated 98 HP to an anemic 77 HP).  So much so that rather than
reverse engineer it, I traded it in for the Sprint after only a few months.

The CA bikes have the emissions canister on the top side and then the 
headers have a catalytic convertor brick in the collector (where the 3 
pipes come together).
