removed the catalitic converter. it has a o2 sensor. i installed a straight pipe in its place. it has a o2 sensor before the catalytic also.
is there some way i can wire the o2 sensor after the catalytic to the o2 sensor before the catalytic converter. the check engine light is on now i think it is because of it. right now i just have the connector wraped up in the frame. are there other ways to eliminate the second o2 sensor
 
When you eliminated your cat and put a straight pipe in, the rear O2 sensor has nothing to monitor. That sensor is there to monitor the catalytic efficiency. If you have no cat, there is nothing to monitor, hence the CEL being on. Removing a cat is illegal and you will never get the light to go out unless you put a cat back on it. You can get a universal converter welded in at a muffler place for 200-250.
