What's a good modern exhaust that'll fit on an 1150?

I saw the guys talking about fitting some early 90's gsxr exhausts on their GS750's, are there any that would fit my 1150? I would really like to either be able to change the oil without taking off the exhaust or have those spring attached headers. I'm not familiar with the spring type but I do know that uncrewing the headers on my current V&H system is ruining the threads on the block and makes changing the oil a major pain. If those springs work the way I think they do, then it could be a major timesaver. I'm hoping that some GSXR exhausts will work, i know it wouldn't be hard to measure the diameter's/distances between the headers but I'm not sure how to measure the distance/angle at where it bends arounds the bottom of the engine. Then I suppose there's the matter of mounting the silencer to something but that sounds like the easy part.
 
If you stick to the air/oil cooled 1100 Gixxer and Bandit exhausts I think there is a good chance it would fit. If you have a boneyard near you that you could try even a stock exhaust from one of those bikes you could see how a performance exhaust from one would fit.
 
Exaust system?

Exaust system?

I seem to recall a system by the name of "Basset"?. This was some time ago but.......???
Rick......(Mines still stock..fortunately)
 
dennis kirk (www.denniskirk.com around $329) still sells the vance and hines megaphone (chrome) 4into1. It does not need to be removed to change oil or filter and retains the use of the center stand i have had one for 17 years and it held up great
 
I have a hindle pipe on my 1150. It is mounted with springs for quick removal (when I change the oil). Great system, I don't have a center stand and don't think one would fit with this pipe. I think I paid $700 Canadian 3 or 4 years ago.

Mookie,
Pre '93 on the Gixxers and just about any year on the Bandits. They still use the early Gixxer based motors.
