Cat glowing - Ducati.ms

moto9 · Apr 29th, 2011, 6:03 am

Had the bike warming up the other day noticed it was running kinda rough and the cat was glowing red. It was sitting during a long northeast winter but I did go out to start it every couple of weeks everything seemed normal. Going back to the dealer but just curious if anyone had seen their cat bright red.

Thanks

What year and size, is it stock? It is probably too lean.

2010 EVO still stock. Going with a full system an reflash soon. But seemed weird all of a sudden to be running so rough after 1200 miles

Take advantage of it, roast some marshmellows!

Could definitely be the gas. I had to have injectors replaced on a work truck do to a crappy Shell deisel brew. How do you explain marshmallow stains on your bike

I used to leave for work @ 6am here in MI and was amazed to see the first 10inches of pipe glow cherry red after idling for a few minutes on my 796 with a LV Cat delete kit..... the LV is thin wall stuff .... the Cat glowing seems pretty wild man.
