Low emission exhaust system for a motorized scooter

A process of installing a catalytic converter to a motorized scooter exhaust system wherein the motorized scooter includes:

• a front steered wheel;
• a rear driven wheel;
• a structural tube extending between the front steered wheel and the rear driven wheel having a port for the discharge of exhaust;
• a motor driving the rear driven wheel having an exhaust emission;
• and,
• a connection between the exhaust emission of the motor and the structural tube for muffling exhaust emission from the motor through the port for the discharge of exhaust in the main structural tube;
• the process of installing a catalytic converter in a tamperproof location comprising the steps of:
• providing an exhaust tube having first and second open ends;
• providing a catalytic converter mounted within the exhaust tube;
• mounting of the exhaust tube through a sidewall of the main structural tube with a first end disposed exterior of the main structural tube and a second end discharging interiorly of the main structural tube;
• and,
• installing a flexible connection between the exhaust emission of the motor and first end of the exhaust tube for the channeling of exhaust into the exhaust tube, whereby exhaust emission from the motor passes through the catalytic converter into the interior of the main structural tube.
