05-06 ZX-6R Exhaust. Where to buy from?

Postby samson » Thu Jan 09, 2014 6:47 pm

Hey guys,

I just picked up my 06 636R and then I stumbled upon your great forums here!

I'm keen on getting a new exhaust for it, just to get a little extra volume so people know when i'm riding next to them on the highway.

I love the look of the Jardine, however I cant seem to find one for sale???

Any suggestions? Or maybe on alternative (similar looking) options?

Thanks heaps for any help!

Sam

Just had a quick google search.

But I'm pretty sure I've seen one from the uk which makes it look like the MV Augusta.
Looked really good but that was a few years ago.

Thanks Jonnymac... had a look, but didnt see anything there that looked good... plus really hoping to find something local. But may have to go overseas i suppose.

Found this unit... Anyone had any experience with these pipes? i.e. deep sound or crappy?

Not cheap (coming from USA), but cant find anything locally...

Did you see the first one by Zard?

That was the look you wanted wasn't it?

Akrapovic are good. You shouldn't have any issues with that one.

Awesome... Looks like the Akrapovic is a winner... I'm off to do some shopping then! Cheers guys!

Also, apparently the exhaust servo is giving a FL light? anyone know an easy fix? can I just remove it?

Thanks

Look up Ivan's servo eliminator......solves the servo issues...or just use the limit plate that comes with the new exhaust

Edit: Sorry I just read the post properly. The only way to fix the light if it's on (with stock exhaust) is to replace the servo or get a servo eliminator.
Only reason I suggest an Ivan's one is because I have one fitted and it works well, but there are other brands out there...

Are they doing custom mapping on the dyno or just ones off the net? The ones on the net richens it up too much...
