RVF Exhaust on a hornet 600

Post by robby » Tue Apr 20, 2010 6:33 pm

Hi all,

Ive still got a nice exhaust which i had for my old RVF, (unfortunaley the RVF is no more)

Anyway rather than sell the exhaust id like to make it fit my hornet.

If i remember correclty a few guys on here have done this to make rvf cans/pipe work fit their VFR's??

Anyone know the best way to do this?? im thinking of getting some rvf pipe work, ( the bit with the 3 holed adaptor plate for the can) cutting this off and joining & welding t to a cut section of standard piping for my hornet.

or i could just make an adaptor plate at work and get this welded onto a cut section of hornet piping

any other sugestions?

and does anyone have and unused or damaged rvf pipe work with thr adaptor plate the want to sell me?

Thanks
rob

Mate of mine made one for me that fits on the Ethos exit link pipe diameter, it is made via a watercutter CNC machine and he copied the exact dimension as per fittings to the OE RVF end can including usage of the OE RVF exhaust gasket ring. Fits perfect.

I can post some pics of this later.
