Very good,most people fit these including myself & they have the balance pipes between 1+2,3+4 better than the ones without & tend to be cheaper & the endcans are good to.

I fitted some to the CBR600F Sport I had a couple of years ago. They are great pipes that fitted well and I got mine from the company direct because they are based in Walsall not for from where I live.

They let my wife pick them up so there was no delivery charge and threw in a set of rings/gaskets as well.

I called them for some advice as received great customer service. :)

As above, perfect fit and great quality too. Check on Ebay as they sell on there under the seller 'motad1' direct from the warehouse, big discounts if you're lucky

Had them on my FZS600 when the original ones totally rusted.


Was a perfect fit but you *have* to balance the carbs afterwards otherwise it doesn't feel quite right

So has everyone balanced carbs after fitting new downpipes? I was going to get some but will have to wait a bit longer if I need to buy s carbtune aswell.

I never did on my previous '99 boxeye and it ran fine - but I fitted Sandy Spares pipes instead of the Motad/Venom...

Got the full system and i didn't notice any difference without balancing so I waited until I got round to fitting the K&N air filter

So here is the result of buying a nice shiny set of motad/venom downpipes... the rattle you can hear is the hugger as its not fully tightened up yet.. but you get the idea...  :lol
