Z900 exhaust on a Z1000A2

#1 PostAuthor: Islander » Sat Nov 03, 2012 7:22 pm

I have been offered a set of Z900 4 into 4 exhaust will they fit on my Z1000A2 and if so what do I need to fit them. I think they would look good I know they are not standard but as long as they will fit with no major mods. Thanks :roll:

One of our members Scott has a 4 into 4 on his black A2 and it's a stunner, you would need to make a simple bracket for the silencer bolt I think, that's about it.

Original is best. If you like 4-4 exhaust buy a Z900 :D

A Z1000 with a 4-4 exhaust looks like a toupee - trying to look like something it ain't :D

Totally agree with you there steve, scotts Z1000 with them 4 pipes on looks stunning.

As i think the Standard Z1000 pipes look awful by comparison.
Yes i have a Z1000.

Surely they might catch fire with the heat???

You'd never be able to get the bike wet??
