09 Custom Headers (finally)

[louisb]

Long time coming. Done by a friend of mine. Found no where makes headers for 07/08/09 Z1000. Comfy helped me find a set and decided pre 2006 would probably fit. Decided to go for a custom set.
Pete did great job.38mm to 51mm slip on. Satin finish. Single exit. Ordering new can (black widow probably) when decide which one. Belly pan and a few other bits going to get carbon wrapped/dipped till can afford proper carbon.
Booked in for remap on 1st July. CJS

It already running better. Seems lighter. The sound!! I cannot describe how unbelievably happy it makes me.
Going to take it off again next week when I get chance. Have a good clean as noticed it needs if. Friend said don't worry nobody sees/knows it's there. I do!!

Mrs thinks cost me 200 bunnies. Was 450

[louisb]

Asked. He said "no sorry I am not geared up to weld titanium it's to expensive".

[louisb]

[louisb]

Didn't get on with the black widow. Was ace just not for me. Coincidentally it's up for sale 👍
New one on. Will put up some pics in a bit when get chance to clean it. Scorpion now.

What is the difference in sound? Is it louder since the header change? Do you have any video? I really like it, i want to make one for mine too.

[comfysofa]

Without speaking for Louisb its gonna be deeper....the bigger thing really is the performance gain from then getting it mapped....

Ive got a gen4 and that was the differences i saw - again - more once it was mapped to take advantage of the larger bore..

WOW, Think he will make another set for my 2008!!! ? 

[leez1000r]

I've found that people with the 07-09 have just cut open the cat box took it out and re-sealed it,because I couldn't find a straight through exhaust for the black 2008 I had,but the mivv shotguns I had on it and is sounded very nice...
