Canister is black with a chrome 'canister'. The megaphone is all chrome and a smoother
design like a Kerker. I had a canister system on a 650 once and seen a new meg. on a
cb750 sohc. That meg. looked really nice and sounded good also.

The four pipes flanges that go inside the exhaust port were not in the same level. If you put the 4 pipes in a perfect level table, there was a huge difference with pipe 3. I had to force the pipe inside using brute strenght and wood pieces.
You also have to change the m6x1 exhaust studs to use the V&H metal half moons. Originals are 43mm long, replacement is 55mm long.

Yeap my 80 KZ1000 LTD had a cheesy little stop added for the center stand they installed. I made a heavier piece out of some strap steel I had and it worked out good. Then I cut a piece of rubber hose and slid it over the piece of strap to give it some cushion.
I put a competition baffle in the last KZ900 I had that had a Vance and Hines header. This 1000 has a Kerker and I ordered a Kerker competition baffle. I took it out and took off the insulation and put it back. Now I have it back out with no baffle and like it that way myself.
