GSXR-W exhaust

[Joseph]

Hey

Right, as some know I am in France, with the gay 100hp limit put in place back in '84

I have a '93 7RW that I would like to open up to full power.

I believe that unlike most bikes of that era where you just swapped over the carburetor lids, Suzuki went to extra trouble by addressing the following :

- exhaust camshaft

- ECU

- exhaust header

I have checked the microfiche and it seems that E04 (code for france) does indeed have a part number for the exh cam and the ECU, so anything on Eblag Deutschland should sort that out

My question is about the exhaust

Since they probably sold about five and a half of these bikes back in the day, the supply of performance parts is not exactly amazing nowadays

Has anyone fitted an exhaust header from some other R, i'm thinking SRAD for example ? 

I guess it boils down to downtube length and diameter and spacing of the spigots ?

k1 1000 ti pipes and later will fit (y and later k series750 are too short) with a bit of heat applied to spread them apart , but the lower part will need adjusting to get round the sump but i cheated by fitting an rf 900 engine instead but you could swap out the 750 sump for an rf 900 one but you will need the rf900 pump pick up as well. Can't remember if anything else is needed. my memory is not very good anymore.. SRAD ones won't fit as the pipes are the wrong diameter. earlier oil one may fit but you will have to ask them who know. Don't mention watercooled bikes in the oil cooled section if you value your self worth tho. they can be a bit touchy. Sssh.  i wasn't me. oh and i can't remember anything much as my memory is bad. did i mention that?

oh and don't get the ones with the balance pipe between  No 2 and 3, just makes the job harder but ya could just cut it and sleeve/weld it up.

I fitted a K4 headers and mid pipe to a 92/93 1100W. Cut out the valve in the mid pipe.

15kg saving. For 175 bucks. 

There was a bit of jiggery pokery to get it to fit.

Thanks for your advice, I won a K1 titanium header off the bay for 12€50, need to sort it out and also figure a link pipe

How's the exhaust? Got it fitted yet?

[Joseph]

Nope. Well, not on the bike yet. It has been adapted to the spare cylinder head but i'm strapped for cash at the moment so this bike will have to wait a bit

Hindle in Canada is still making full stainless exhaust headers and pipes for all oil and w 750/1100.
