I think you're talking about the pre-muffler. The CAT on our bikes are in the headers. You COULD remove the pre-muffler and fashion a mid pipe in there if your Akra goes onto the pre-muffler.

My Muzzy removed the pre-chamber completely. But I know some other pipes didn't.

That's the pre-muffler. Not a CAT. As I mention.. the cats on the '09-'11 6R is in the header itself.

(Aside from the pillion pegs) This is the shit that came off of my bike when the slip on went on... you can see the pre-muffler in all it's glory.

It would just slip on and off if you find a link pipe.. EPA dont really bother with bikes.. My wifes cuz in shepp got picked up on his tripple a month ago and he has a full race system.. sounds great too
Cant see it being a prob..

definitely find a different mechanic. If he makes his living working on motorcycles he should have known this as the bike has been around for 3 years now.. hahaha.

Or just learn how to do everything yourself and save the headache of some idiot jackin' up your bike.
