Yoshi Slip On Issue
11/08/12 5:43 AM

Hi All,
Apologies if this has been raised elsewhere on this site but i am a newbie here.
Recently I ordered a set of 2008 Yoshimura Titanium/carbon R-77 Slip ons for my 2007 ZX-14. The well informed amongst you will recognize that Yoshimura do not make these for a 2007 but only for 2008 onwards which means the headers on the 2007 are at around 51mm and the mid pipes on the Yoshis are around 55mm! Hence a fitting issue!
Some may frown but I ordered these slip ons with this knowledge. The reason is I love the look of these pipes and will make them fit one way or the other.
But I thought I would throw it out there to the experts or anyone else who possibly has experienced and resolved this issue.
Does anyone have any advise or input on what the best way forward might be here. Sleeves, reducers, tape, etc?
Thankyou in advance for any assistance...
