Headers and collectors are stainless steel one-off made by Martelius Racing. I used to have a Kerker K -canister (50mm slip) and winter ´07-08 I found a Kawasaki by Kerker -megaphone fron fleabay and Henry-da-Man sniped it for me. He got the headewrs and sent the muffler to me.
So I had to fab a piece of pipe fron rear collector to megaphone. See pic:

Thanx. The funny thing is that the exhaust was fabbed winter ´07-08 about a year before I found ZRX -swing. Pretty lucky:P

I see. I had followed your link, and it stated that they were for 18" and 19" wheels. is that the same fender or a smaller size?
What bike is the headlight holder from? It has a nice stock look to it.

Well, actually I did the fabbing and a friend of mine welded it. It´s a od 60mm ss-tube wit one 90 degree bend. Then I started to cut it from bend radius piece by piece till it sat in right angle. My goal was to have only 2 bends in total from collector to end of meg. As I´ve said many times, pretty darn good luck that it fitted with the new ZRX -swing.
