Stainless downpipes
#1
As my foxeye has the original pipes, I assume at some point they'll rot through. I've seen several sets of pipes on the bay, but wondered if they was a clear favourite in terms of make.

[size=1em]I put Motad on mine, but it ran weak, so I had to sleeve the outlet pipe down (it's an easy job).[/size]
[size=1em]I can give you the dimensions if you want.[/size]

[size=1em]After that it ran fine, and they've been on for around six years now, and thus far no problemos.[/size]

[size=1em]However other Fazer owners say they haven't had this problem.[/size]
[size=1em]Maybe Motad have altered the outlet pipe since I bought mine, or I was just unlucky.[/size]


[size=1em]One other point: don't over tighten the header nuts as you will bend the stainless flanges. [/size]


And finally, I've got a set of original downpipes, that have no corrosion on them whatsoever, if you live near Bolton and you don't mind parting with a few quid you can have them.

I got a set of stainless down pipes from my bike shop and no problems
It was a bit of a b~@"h fitting them, especially on your own

I was lucky, mine had stainless pipes on when I got it. Not sure of the make but they seem to work nicely!

I fitted some of the sandy bike spares ones recently. I know they have mixed reviews but touch wood they've been fine for me and fitted perfectly with no problems so far.

+1 for the Motad downpipes,
that's what I went for when I got mine, they have the link pipes like the originals, phoned them up and got the cheapest price I had seen on fleebay

Ditto Motad pipes and their Venom can. Think I paid about £230 odd for lot, including gaskets. Didn't notice any difference in power. Certainly a shit load better than with stock pipes on riddled with holes!

+1 for Motad BUT I did opt for Yamaha exhaust port gaskets as I couldnt get a proper seal with the ones that Motad supplied with exhaust-and yes I did scrupulously clean port area of carbon etc. Good value-collected mine from their Walsall premises as only a few miles up the road.
