katana 750 exhaust question

[GixxerJoe]

I was told that a cheaper way of doing a exhaust on my kat is to use a header from a 1200 bandit with a slip on. Is this true , will this just bolt right on?

The B12 engine IS taller , so the header probably is , too . Not sure HOW much . But this is , of course , merely speculation ...

I heard but wasn't sure... That the B12 can directly bolt on. But it is longer and therefore the bottom cowling would need to be trimmed.

Thanks, I have found one cheap enough that even if it doesnt work no harm will be done. but if it does I will be sure to let everyone know

take a picture of it, I want to use the b12 headers also. How did you come across finding the headers for cheap?

The one I found is on ebay (just do a search for 1200 bandit exhaust and you will find it), it was a full stock pipe and header for $70.00 If I dont get that one I am gonna look in a local bone yard. last lime I was out there I saw a couple of b12s. I just hope there is not a whole lot of mod to make this work. The person who told me about this in the first place said they bolt right up so we will see. Hopefully I will have this accomplished by the ene of the month maby a little longer $ is a little tight right now I have all three of my kids b-days back to back. As soon as it is done I will post some pics and let you know how it turns out.

don't get it. it will not fit. look at the pic I posted is not the same.

[GixxerJoe]

That was the one I was looking at and thanks I wont get it. Dont need to wast any money can you tell me where you got yours or where I can find one so I get the right one. That looks awsume on yours and easy enough to do

[katanapr3]

I got the headers on ebay, I paid $46.00 for the full exhaust.
