Full Exhaust system

[skotty]

Hello all,

I have a 2000 750 and saw this exhaust on ebay. Now the specs here are for a 89-97. Does anyone know if I can use this for my bike with a few modifications?

I have searched high and low for a full exhaust for a 98+ Katana. Vance and Hines only make them for pre 98s. Hindle makes them, but only in Aluminum and its quite expensive. Yoshimura doesnt make full exhausts for 98+ anymore. D&D, I havent heard very good things about.

I have looked up some info on motorcycleanchor.com about Katana Header Flow & Grinding, but I dont know how complicated that is or how much do I have to invest for the tools to do that. Any suggestions fellas?

Yeah , with a few modifications .
The 98+ has a shallower oil pan , so it's exhaust doesn't bend down as much . But the pre98 oil pan is deeper , so it bends down further . Basically , you'll probably have to trim the bottom of your belly to make it fit . I think . But I'm real tired and distracted . What were we talking about again ?

Thanks for the reply md86. From Motorcycleanchor.com, I found the following information for the 750 exhaust:

(Option 2) For the Kat 600's, replace the stock header with the stock header from the Kat 750's. The cross-sectional area difference between the down-tubes on the headers are approximately 23% larger (although to be fair, the port-flange and collector-to-midpipe size remain the same, so the amount of change in flow is smaller than the 23% difference might imply -- but it also means that it will bolt right up in exactly the same fitment). I suspect the oil-cooled GSXR 1100 and Katana 1100 headers might provide the same kind of size upgrade for the Kat 750's, but without measuring them, I can't tell you definitively.

Do you know if that is certain? Cause I saw a full exhaust system for a GSXR 1100 on ebay. If it matches my Katana 750, I'll go ahead and bid on it.

Thanks again for your input.

Hey , anything can be MADE to work . I read a recent thread about a guy who put a GSXR11 on his Kat . Might wanna look for that thread ...
