A catalytic converter with a heating member for use in a motorcycle. It includes (a) a catalytic member installed in an exhaust pipe of a motorcycle for converting exhaust toxic gases to nontoxic gases; (b) a liquid petroleum gas heating member including an air mixer, a liquid petroleum gas tank which is connected to the air mixer, a solenoid valve which is connected between the liquid petroleum gas tank and the air mixer for controlling a flow rate of a liquid petroleum gas into the air mixer, and a nozzle which is located at one end of the catalytic member and is connected to the air mixer; (c) a control unit connected to the solenoid valve and an ignition member located in the nozzle, for controlling the solenoid valve and for igniting a mixture of the air and the liquid petroleum gas at the nozzle to heat the catalytic member when a sensor senses an initial cold starting temperature in the catalytic member below a light-off temperature; and (d) a battery wiring to the control unit.
