exhausts : which fit my 2001?
« on: April 28, 2005, 04:34:00 AM »
hey i am looking for a new exhaust for my bike, the headers have a whole and the midpipe/can is scratched...
so basically my main convern is getting some new headers... but what years will fit mine?
and what years of headers will fit with what years' midpipes? etc...

btw : does anyone have any deals on used exhausts?? :D
haha

Headers are usually pricey new and hard to find used.
Many sources for new headers, but you'll need a matching pipe so you'll probably end up at around $600+
All years Bandit exhausts will fit if you are doing both the header and can.

do only certain headers match with certain pipes?

Most header systems are designed to mate to their own midpipe. Collector location will vary depending on where the mfr thinks it should be for the state of tune they're aiming for and methods of connecting the the mid-pipe to the collector can vary, as well as how the pipes route, so most of the time, you can't mix-n-match parts from different systems.

If you're looking to replace your stock header with another stock header, one from any B12 will work - if you have a B12. Any B6 header will work for you if you have a B6. (The B6 has slightly shorter tubes to match the slightly shorter engine height.)
