Not too many pipe manufacturers do the ZZR600 for some reason. I've emailed Ken (Megacycle) last night for a quote on some cans, will let you know outcome when I get it.

Last time I looked into it I think it was $600 for the full kit and you stall have 4 into 2 pipes.

Nobby, you sound like my younger brother who complains about his overheads, his biggest one being his wife...

Back, just got off the phone with Megacycles, they do a ZZR600 for $550 installed, so for you I guess probably similar price but would be freight instead of installation, perhaps even cheaper.. best to contact them (03) 9769 1200.

Was going to suggest Staintune, (got em on the 1200) but they are roughly double the price of the Megacycles. ($1100 plus fitting for the Stains) :shock:
2 X ZRX1200R 4 X ER6N, GT550, 1988 ZX-10, 4 X GPZ250R, 4 X GPZ900R and GPZ750R :) Yeah I like Kawasakis.

YOU GUYS ROCK - GREAT ADVICE!!!

Post by beckstar69 »

Hey there ya'll - thanks for the fantastic advice - I rung Megacycle and spoke with Dean, who checked with Ken about price after I told them about the price mick_dundee posted (thanks heaps Mick!!!) and they said they'd do a set for $550 + $20 couriered to Sydney - BLO*DY brilliant! So, I'm currently engaged in high level negotiations with the 'Minister for Finance' (full title 'Minister for WAR & FINANCE') regarding an imminent purchase and am expecting a decision within the week... Watch this space for the outcome ;-)

THANKS once again! Beck

for the price of x2 cans.

Might be worth going to mega cycle and paying a little extra to get 4 into 2 into 1 and drop some weight by not having to have two cans

She lives in Sydney, to bring the bike down is going to either take a fair bit of time or a fair bit of money, do you really think the weight saving is worth THAT much? I certainly don't, they are a heavy bike for sure but I would live with it.
