Catalytic Converters - Honda VTX1300T 2009 Owner's Manual

Catalytic Converters

This motorcycle is equipped with
oxidation catalytic converters. Each
catalytic converter contains precious
metals that serve as catalysts, promoting
chemical reactions to convert the exhaust
gasses without affecting the metals.
Catalytic converters act on HC and CO.
Replacement parts must be original Honda
parts or equivalents.

Technical Information
The catalytic converters must operate at
high temperature for the chemical
reactions to take place. They can set fire to
any combustible materials that come near
them. Park your motorcycle away from
high grasses, dry leaves, or other
flammables.
