Bassani Exhaust

Emissions Info

Federal E.P.A. and state laws make it illegal to remove properly functioning OEM catalytic converters from vehicles which are operated on public streets and highways.


Bassani Xhaust Motorcycle products are designed for use on motorcycles with non-catalyzed exhaust and/or emission systems. Use on motorcycles subject to E.P.A. and/or CARB (California Air Resources Board) regulations constitutes tampering and is a violation of Federal / Local Law unless it can be shown that such use does not cause the motorcycle to exceed applicable Federal/CARB standards.


California does not permit the use of aftermarket exhaust systems that remove original equipment pollution control devices such as catalytic converters and oxygen sensors. Exhaust systems that remove original equipment catalysts are legal in California for racing purposes only on motorcycles used in closed course competition and never on public streets or highways.


Bassani Xhaust is unable to provide a comprehensive list of motorcycles equipped with catalyzed and/or emissions controlled exhaust systems.


Therefore, prior to purchasing a Bassani Xhaust system, components, and/or mufflers for your motorcycle it is imperative that you check with an authorized(Franchised) motorcycle dealer to insure the OEM Motorcycle Exhaust system does not/did not contain a catalytic converter.
