Abstract
The exhaust gas system has an exhaust gas catalytic converter, through which exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine can flow for catalytic conversion of the exhaust gases. The catalytic converter is disposed between two exhaust gas line segments, each forming one line connection with the catalytic converter and each contacting a stop face of the exhaust gas catalytic converter. A bracing element engages at least one of the exhaust gas line segments and braces the catalytic converter between the exhaust gas line segments. The system is particularly suitable for economical retrofitting of exhaust gas catalytic converters in motor cycles.
