WTB:900rr exhaust setup

[brickonwheels]

Anyone interested in parting with theirs?

[AllanB]

Thinking about this the other day as I surfed the net - I'm presuming a set for the 1999 900rr Fireblade fit? If so why not buy brand new as the Delkevic ones are very cheap.

linky:

Delkevic :: Shop > Delkevic - Honda Downpipes

Look spunky too!!!!

You should buy them and let us know how they fit.

Interesting find! I never heard of them. Looks too cheap to be real but appears to be real.

Somebody needs to try buying them.

Looks nice, but I would be interested in seeing a comparrison before plopping down 2-3 times the cost of a stock 900rr header.

You obviously haven't priced a used 900RR header off of Ebay lately. You're gonna pay almost as much for it as you will for these brand new Delkevics. I had two used 900RR headers and had almost that much in each one of em. If I had it to do over I'd buy a new Delkevic.

Great price for a Two Bros....

I don't know what those are but that picture does not look like a stock '98 RR header to me. Maybe aftermarket but I don't think it's what the ad says it is.

Nope, that's an Erion racing or Borla 4 into 1 header, better for high end revs but will slow ya down at low end and midrange....

The Two Bros. is a 4-2-1 and is better for the 919 as it will improve the low to midrange torque...$120 shipped aint bad for the one on Ebay now, even if they did paint it black

But will it fit like the 96-98 stock headers do?

[The Shadow]

yes. it will. I have a full two brothers system on my 919.

That one is apparently missing the midpipe. You could get something fabricated but figure that into your cost calculations. I like the look of the 2 brothers on the 919. I wonder how it compares on the dyno to the stock 900rr header on a 919.

Re-read the listing, the midpipe is included but it's just not in the pictures

Sorry to hijack this thread, but Shadow, I see you have engine guards on your 9er. I've been looking for some for a while now and am leaning towards the SW-Motech ones. What's your say on it, and which do you have? Thanks man.

[The Shadow]

My bike has the Givi engine guards. They came installed when I bought my bike, and I like how they look so they stayed. a few folks have had issues with weak weld joints on the Givi's, but mine seem to be pretty sturdy. it's just tubular steel with some flat triangular plates as attachment points, so it wwould be an easy fix even if the joints were weak. i have no direct experience with SW-Motech's bars, I haven't even seen many pics of people running them. I think the lines of the Givi's look nicer, I think the Motech bars look kinda clunky...just my opinion, yours may vary... but I'm sure the Motech's work just as well if/when you need em.

any one knon if you can still get a full system for the 900rr from two brothers seems it is no longer listed. if i see one at a retailers site might have to buy it up.

[Poorboy]

or I'll do the delkicivic header and and a 900rr flange on two brothers pipe. although I'm not sold on the single low side exhaust yet but the function before style part of my brain is. The style art of my brain keeps saying go for the 2 up exhaust I love that look .

funny thing is normally the function side of my brain normally wins.

That system will not work on the 919 without major modifications.

Been there tried that......

See here for more info about what Osiris helped me with:

http://www.wristtwisters.com/f94/fin...one-25022.html

I ended up getting '97 headers that did not have the three bolt end piece on it (important to know when deciding what can to get). So I got the slip-on can with a clamp, but they make bolt on cans as well. Just make sure you know your pipe size and can inlet (mine was 61mm on mid-pipe and 63 on can, so just enough to slide on and clamp down tight).

I believe marylandmike got the bolt on mid-pipe, but had a slip on can, so he just cut the pipe off behind the bolt-bracket. That works, too.

Thanks again, Osiris, for your help.

Yeah mine had a flange and was all one piece, no removable mid-pipe. Just cut it off and the can slipped right on.

Hey googl3it,

The bike looks freaking amazing. I love that black powder-coated look. I'm about to get a bunch of parts from my bike powder coated as well. I'm pretty confident I can do most of the tear-down. The only parts that have me concerned are these. Do they hold up the engine or are they held up by it? did you have to drop the engine to get them off?

Any advice you can give?

Thanks
