Kerker wanted. ZRX

Postby adza » Sat Jul 26, 2014 6:38 pm

Hi All,
I'm after a Kerker exhaust for my ZRX as my tax check is burning a hole in my pocket.
Has anyone bought one lately and where from ?
If youve got a second hand one i'd be interested too.
Cheers
Adza.

Its a big ask Adza.....
I managed to buy a s/h one from a member here.
If I told you what I paid for it, with a 2" comp baffle... you'd probably kick me to death. :lol:

Mate, it is rare to see second hand ones kicking around. You can get them from heaps of US suppliers for not much money but then shipping costs can be a deal breaker ... mostly :D

Good luck with your search

So, I can find a couple new in Japan, either in the mat black or polished. Pretty sure they're street baffle only.

Not the cheapest I've seen (certainly nowhere near the one I sold ;) ). Cost would come to around $1k with another $100-150 in shipping.

Should be able to get a new Muzzy meg for less than that from the states.

For that price there is also any number of second hand Ti systems available from Japan.

I have a second hand one hanging in the shed that was only on the bike for a little while, but I wouldn't let it go unless I got at least a grand for it. I'm happy to hang on to it as they look so good on the bike and they're pretty rare over here and I know I'll regret it if I ever do get rid of it. :lol:

If you order a new one, the shipping will be more than $150 as the box they come in is huge, so you are probably looking at a minimum of $1300 landed, or at least that's what it was when I bought mine and the dollar was better back then. You can get a Muzzy way cheaper, but the ones I've tested had a bit of a dip at 4 or 5k RPM and personally I don't think they look as good. Another pipe that is awesome is a Brock's Meg, but, for me, the Kerker has the 'Eddie factor' and suits the ZRX the most.

Please buy Nelso's KERKER.A grand is a good price and the money would go to a good cause. I need some new tyres and parts for a number of my bikes. :kuda:

Shipping from the US it would be more expensive. As long as it fits into a box that adheres to the maximum size guidelines (I'm fairly sure it should) $150 should be about right from Japan. I can't remember what they weigh exactly but I was allowing about 10-11kg.

Thanks Kwakked up. I've tried both those sites and no Kerker for the Zrx on Webike and Dynoman's email links are unresponsive :x
Nelso thanks for the offer but $1000 bucks second hand i dunno. Shoot me some pics if ya can & i'll check it out.
I agree there are better and cheaper pipes but i too think the Kerker suits it the best.
2 weeks ago a crazy truck driving lesbian came flying round a corner on my side of the road and smashed into me with the bull bar which i bounced off and went flying.
Luckily it was slow speed and i was ok but the poor Rex got smashed radiator, pipe, and broke both foot pegs etc. Maybe if i had a Kerker on she might have bounced of me :kuda:

Hey J.B
I'm not that good at speaking Japanese and from the Translated descriptions on Webike i've read :? i'd probably end up buying a Komono or something.

You could always speak to Show & Go in RAdelaide, they are the aussie distributor. ;) If you get it from OS, as Neslo said, the box is huge, and it WILL be over the $1000 threshold incl freight so bend over and get ready for a reaming.....with no lube. :roll:

Nelso's pipe was only on the bike for a few months, so it's not going to be that second hand, if you know what I mean.

Also, check out the Supertrapp site in the US, I am pretty sure they are only made on request these days.

BTW, I love my Kerker :kuda:

I paid over $1300 for it, so I'd want atleast that much. I just havent got around to fitting it yet. Nelso's offer of a very slightly used one at $1000 is a good deal IMHO, I mean, a new one is going to look like that in a few weeks anyway.
