Got a new pipe built for my KZ1000 yesterday. It was a bit of a shock when my buddy asked if I was interested in have this done. It was a "no brainer" as far as I was concerned! :woohoo:
Here are some pics of the build and the finished product at the end:
There u are!
Now we just hafta wait for Spring! :woohoo:

It's a race-type pipe, so there is no oil/filter access without removing the pipe. It is a slip fit with spring retainers, so removal is a lot quicker/easier than bolt on pipes.
