    Suggest you use the search feature and search for WileyCo -- there's a 5 page thread on this topic, including the solutions that worked for various people.

      IT'S THE TOPIC THAT WON'T DIE!!!!

      once again, it will fit. you have to remove the gasket from the collector and it may take some persuasion but it will fit. a tip I've read is to stick the midpipe in the freezer and then heat the collector and she'll go in like buttah.

          We just put one on my buddies 98 Kat 600 and all we had to do was remove the old gasket, slap some exhaust silicone on the new mid-pipe and bolt 'er up. She went on just fine and sounds sweet.

            That is a matter of opinion.

            Wileyco SS slip on with shipping $130US
            Yosh with shipping $285 + $54shipping (to Canada) (from ebay)

            $285+54=$339-$130=$209 difference (before taxes)

            No offence, but that's almost a set of tires, a new sprocket and chain set or hell just $200 of mad money in my(well the wife's ) pocket.

            For $200 (US no less) I don't mind having to put a bit of effort into making it fit. Although 90% of that effort was using the search function and reading, or the odd PM.

            The Wileyco is a nice sounding pipe for a dirt cheap price, although I am still bummed I missed out on them when a batch went for $50 each a few years back on Ebay .

                  Not to mention (and this is just my opinion) that Yoshis kind of sound like crap on a Kat.

                      West of the city, near 495 & the Pike (01752). Gap is in the air...kind of like Range's feet when he's riding it.

                        I gotta agree with AHF. One of my friends has a yoshi on his 750 kat, and he doesn't like it much either. His is kind of raspy.
