          The e-bay heading said 91 - 98 cbr 600 Honda. I was looking for configuration. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...8811&viewitem=
          I had bought one off of a cbr929 that had a flange to bolt up to a stock header at the catalytic converter. It would have cost a small fortune to buy a used mid pipe and gut it to make it work. The actual header ID has to be from someone other than me. It was a rusty e-bay find. It's an after market header set from a junk yard in Oregon, although it did come off of a gs1100. My bike, E-Bay and me. I didn't have much to start with. Check out my photo bucket.

            Great result from only a fin!! Furthermore, the newest iteration looks significantly better than the R1 version. My opinion only.

              You won't get an argument from me on either point. Nuf said.

                  Stiksave,

                  Was your tube bender able to make the adjustment without putting a crimp in the tube (not that it matters other than visually, and its not in a place where you can see it).

                  Close up would be nice. Was it a local muffler shop?

                    You decide about the crimping. It's not a Michelin man crimp like you see on some exhaust parts. I'm pleased. It was a local shop, not a chain store, although I did have a pipe bent up for me once at a Cole Muffler shop for the bike once. The kid was very careful. The thickness of the stock used on the pipe is thinner than regular exhaust material.

                        Even better now.

                        Are those the bar end mirrors from Z-1? How are that at crusing speed for buzz?

                            I am looking for new mirrors. Mine tilt back at higher speed making it impossible to see whats behind me. How are these are high speed?
