    Got my exhaust in: (Anyone know what it is off of?) I really like the Heat Shields actually which is why I got this set. Plus they were sorta cheap for the condition.

    Winter Project:
    2002 Katana 600
    -Buell Seat
    -Custom Swingarm?
    -Custom Fairings?
    -Major Cleaning of everything

      The Reservoir will foul the battery box. The battery needs to move back 1 1/2 inches. The shock is longer but that is why some people swap it out.
      The diameter of the spring is larger and that tends to foul the swing arm cross bar.

      I think those pipes might be off a Honda Hornet?

            at first those heat shields made me think undertail, but the mounting brackets say otherwise I'm not sure what they are?

              That was why I thought Hornet, they were tucked in along the seat. So they had heat shields but mounted to the sub frame.

                Looks kinda like the B-King cans but about half the size?

                          Well, thats was my problem. Im putting a different swingarm on my bike. And I needed a shorter knunkle and I found a deal on ebay for a GSXR 1000 shock and knunkle for like 15 buck so I got it and tried to work to with the different swingarm and I was hitting the swingarm and centerstand parts.

                            Well give up on the center stand..

                            Be careful just swapping out parts like that. You might end up with something nasty..

                              Center stand been gone. It's hard to explain. But im back to stock shock with shorter knuckle.
