KZ550 Pipe. ZX6?

22 May 2013 20:40

I am looking for a 4 into 1 Pipe for my 81 KZ550.
All I can find are MAC. I have never heard a mac pipe.
I have also seen some talk of putting a ZX6 header on a KZ550. But, I have not seen anyone really do it.

Any help would be great.


Thanks


Tim

It seems that kz650 pipes will fit with a little work. I just picked up a used 4 to 1 and I just needed to bend the headers in an inch or so to line them up. It takes a little work to line up the rear mount as well, I'll take some pictures once the paint dries.

I just noticed you have the ltd model, my bike is a kz550a so I'm not sure if everything will line up the same.

Thanks,

I would like to check out your pictures. Only the rear mounts should be different, from your GPZ and my LTD.

Must be something with the site upgrade. That link worked earlier when tried it, before the upgrade, but now I get the "Permission.." message.

Can't figure out why Patton's link no longer works. I think he is linking to a specific reply? Is that it?

Is the 750 head also dimensionally the same as the 650? If so, wouldn't the 750 header also fit as well as the 650?
