Getting rid of original Gen 1 Fazer 1000 downpipes
« on: 28 April 2015, 07:37:58 pm »
I'm thinking of getting rid of my standard headers/collector and replacing them with a set of stainless ones from Sandy Bike Spares. £250 complete. The noise from my Exup valve is becoming unbearable. It's been serviced and is noisy only due to mileage and age. The original set are also needing regular touch up's with high temperature paint at the collector to keep them looking nice which is a shame coz the downpipes themselves still look fresh. Anyone used these headers from Sandy Bike Spares? I know I'd be junking the whole Exup system but I'm sure the Guru who skimmed my head and did a little porting work for me can help again with a bit of a carb tickle to sort things out.

You'll lose all that Fazer useability if you remove the exup, it'll be a bit flat at the bottom end.

Just get a new exup valve or bushes, that should sort it.
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!
