how to......fit aftermarket end/race can

[skodaphil]

here we go a quick (and i mean quick) guide

remove old one and put on new one!

please, please, please make sure the exhaust system is cold before you work on it!


standard zx6r g1 exhaust is mounted to the standard link pipe by 3 bolts.


undo the 3 bolts, some bikes have a clamp to slacken and others have 4 bolt flanges

and a top mount usually attached to pillion peg undo and....

remove, wrap it up and put it in a safe place for mot time (if you've got a loud can to put on) now is a good time to see how loud your bike is, caution flames will come out of the end!!!

fit new can, remember to use new gasket (if required) and thread lock/nylocs to ensure nothing falls off


make sure all fittings are correctly tightened.


start your bike and wonder at how swish you are

please note some bike require a link pipe but this is also an easy bolt on replacement.

For best results do it in the garage with the door shut, you won't stop laughing for ages. Even better when you do it with a big v-twin
