Should be fairly straightforward.
Some useful info here about removing the servo cables which is the only tricky part. http://www.fz1-forum.com/forum/gen-i...-two-bros.html There is some debate about gutting cats, PCIIIs, blocking off AIS hoses etc. I'm not sure if there is a definitive answer about it all.... Be ready to be amazed at how much the stock exhaust weighs though! I demand some pics and a vid!! Cheers and good luck Simon

Nice! Can't wait to see this... SS or CF?
As for the install, quite straight forward. Two bolts and two cables off, two bolts on if it is like the TBR can. I don't know how strict your inspections are but if they do db testing, you'll want to hang on to the $1100 stock can. 15 minutes to trade it out and go get inspected and 15 more when you get home. I pulled the EXUP cables since it defaults to full open so a short trip for a sticker won't matter. Be ready for the popping and gurgling on decell. Be wary of the infamous surging that has been going around on the GEN II bikes. Are you doing the airbox mod and AIS block off?

We don't have vehicle inspections here at all so no problem there. Not sure what the AIS block off or airbox mods even are so I have no idea. If there just performance mods i'm not worried about it though. This thing runs good enough for me as it is. Ant more info? Thanks!-Wayne |

If you keep it to just the slip-on you will most likely not have any issues with the surging. Remember that Yamaha offers a slip-on as an accessory item and I am sure that they tested it well or wouldn't have produced it. I think the problem starts when you modify the air box (in addition to exhaust work). At that point you're letting in more air than the stock ECU can compensate for and end up with a lean condition. However, this is just speculation...

Led integrated tail/brake/turn signals and F.E. installed.
Lower Fairings will be here this afternoon. Scorpion slip on being delivered on Thursday. Corbin front and rear seats will be here Thur/Fri. I removed the stock exhaust including the cables awaiting the Scorpion. Started it last night to hear what it sounded like without..........Reminded me of a 327 chevy.
