Hello all , new to the site , just got my first z , z1r , question , the bike has a very standard exhaust system in place , and have my eyes on a vance & hines 4-1 as a replacement (as see on e-bay ) want to keep the oem exh as a good standby and run aftermarket thru the year the bike is as far as i`m aware standard (air box -filter -carbs ), thinking ,what mods are req`d as the standard is a 4-1 ,and the replacement would be a 4-1 also , any help answers would be great ,Buzzy

Buzzy,welcome to the madhouse.
For a great deal on a Vance and Hines pipe speak to Jeff Saunders at Z1 ENTERPRISES in the U.S.A.
Check out the links section at the top of the page.

No worries my old china.
Jeff is a top bloke and does great deals on Z stuff,especially the V&H pipes.
Good choice of pipe,IMO the best 4-1 for the road

Welcome Buzzy, let's see a pic of the Z1R.
There is a section "How to post pics".

Buzzy, I think the only "mods" that may be required, would be re-jetting and this would be probably only one size up. You may want to fit air-pods and there again, it may require some larger jets. That's the only mods you have to consider with this fitting of the V&H exhaust. You may find, and I think most likely, that nothing is required.

Hiya Buzzy

Defo check out Z1 Enterprises, u can get a new V&H delivered for ?200

As for carb tweeking, as Garn says, may have to got up a size or two as the standard pipes are quite restrictive compared to V&H

[buzzy]

thanks to all , yeah at the moment only the one z , tho still fancy a triple two smoke , that will take me back to my youth , also running a KTM 950 SM for hoonin round back lanes , but really looking farward to the z , i can remember in my youth gazing in awe at this bike in my local dealership and blaggin the pamphlets and stickin it on my bedroom wall , i was a z head in my youth but never allowed a bike (parents ) , will get some photos posted as soon , take it easy

Out of curiosity.

What are the cheapest systems that can be bought for a Zed?

Found this V+H price.
