06-08 And 09-11 Differences?
I was told that the mid-pipes from years 06-08 are different from 09-11, and I was pretty dang sure that Kawak hadent changed much ( hardware wise) on the ZX-14's.
Thing is, I just found a set of slip-ons for 06-08 ZX-14 models, talked to the parts guy and told him I have a 2011 ZX-14, which he in turn informed me that said slip-ons would not fit my 2011 because the mid pipes are different...
Is this true?
And if so, would the modification to the mid pipe be too difficult to fit 06-08 aftermarket exhaust to 09-11 ZX-14's?
Again, any info appreciated fellas.
-Jay

Yes they are different, the 09-11 have bigger mid pipes and slip flange so an 06-08 would be too small to bolt up to a 09-11 , to make it work you would have to cut the slip flange off the 09-11 mid pipes and weld it on your 06-08 slip on mid pipes, or vice versa for 09-11 to fit on 06-08

I'm thinking the '06 & '07's are the same then the '08's and up are alike.
My slip-ons from my '07 would not fit my '08 but all I did was swap the doughnut gaskets and they worked. The gaskets have the same OD with a different ID if I remember right between the years.
If not just humor me, I'm getting old.
BTW: The headpipe collector also has a cat in the '08's and up.

I was ever so close to ordering the 06-07 Dual slipons from Ti Force, I think that its the best looking exhaust out there, high mount and everything.
Dreams are shattered for my 2011 ZX14
Why doesent anybody else make highmounts?
Dual highmounts to be exact.
