That pipe does look good, much smaller and I'm sure much lighter than the stock ZR7 setup I have on my C-1. Is it a lot louder than the stock can? I'd like to find another ZR7 exhaust for that red 80 650 I just got.

its a zrx seat alright and it was a pain in the ass to fit on the bike, haven't had a chance to ride it yet lovely ne ohio weather. gringo knows ohio weather lol. i got a aluminum swingarm coming some time this week and its set up for a rear disc got a 1000 rear wheel disc\caliper already made the tab for the master cylinder. now i just need too find\build a 18' front rim and a wider rear rim antbody? well i'll post more pics when i get the other stuff done. oh ps its not really loud i made the baffle out of a old tractor baffle works pretty good, mark wing how does it handle w\18'front i think it would turn a little quicker?

Did you find your 18" yet? I think rstnick did that, and I think there is a post discussing the 18" conversion.

I definately like the look of the ZR7 exhaust. Actually ive been looking for one for almost a year on ebay, and have only seen a couple sets.

Good job on your project, looks great. :)

Looking good Gorak. B)

I'll be waiting a little while to put on the 18" front I've got. It was gonna be next Winter's partial project, but the guy who's bracing a swingarm for me (still waiting on that too!) has a pair of 18"ers, Avons, that he asked if I wanted to buy for $150. So I just might take him up on his offer and switch to the 18" sooner.

That's interesting. I think you're really going to appreciate the 18"; but we'll wait to see what your verdict is.

Just realized you have the exhaust mounted to the swingarm. Don't you think all that movement will be bad?
