Suzuki GSXR 1000 K1/K2 end can (X40FOX) & mid pipe made up by someone (we may be able to help you with that very soon)...

Check out Mezo's & my exhaust on our threads...

Don't know if you can get them in UK, but Staintune, a local mob, make a nice stainless steel one.

Been looking at the original exhaust/silencer on my 2kf looks as though the silencer will fit the 1vj
if it does I will use that and get another silencer for the 2kf when I get round to it, If possible I think
I will keep the blue 1vj as near to original as I can, not to worried what goes on the others as I use them
all year round.
I have seen the Staintune ones along with a few others but have not honed it down to a particular one yet.

Wow thats too expensive Mezo at the end of the day the original exhaust I have is solid
so will keep an eye out for a tatty one with a good baffle as the the part that was stolen.
Thanks for the link though, I can wait for an aftermarket exhaust til my bank balance
recovers, while I have been pulling the bike down to check it over I thought I may as well
change the bits that are past there best and as we all know all those little bits and pieces
soon add up :biggrin:
