1997 750 V&H SSR2 on a 1990 600?

[DocTremblay]

Hi guys, had a quick question for ya'll.

I have a chance to pick up a Vance and Hines SSR2 full exhaust system for cheap. It's meant for a 1997 750 Katana. Will it fit my 1990 600 Katana? Or let me rephrase that, "How much blood, sweat and tears (and money!) will it take to mount it?"

I understand that a stock 750 headers will fit onto the pre-98 600s with a bit of modification (per Cyber Poet's instructions), but have not been able to find any info for aftermarket headers.

Thanks for any help!

I thought I posted about this today already once? Oh well.... The 750 header should fit on the 600 okay with no problems.

The thing is... it's a full system so you'll have to jet to compensate not only for the after market header, but for the additional flow of the 750 header.

Thanks for the quick reply steves! Looks like I'll go for it then.

I didn't read it closely enough... you might have some minor fitment problems. Everything should line up, it just might not fit right.

What do you mean as far as "fit"? I figured I would need to either modify the oil pan or put a dent in the collector. My main concern is where the headers attach to the exhaust ports - a little dremeling I can handle, but if it's way off then I'm out of luck.

Yeah, I mean you might have to dent the collector, and trim the belly pan. The V&H isn't specifically called out... but the pipes should be the correct spacing and size.

Haha, good enough for me. Thanks for the help. I'll let you know how it goes.
