Hoblick Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Right before we leave for our trip to deals gap my buddy decides he wants to put an exhaust on his FZ. I have already built one for my other friends FZ09 (who is also going with us), but this one was going to be a mid mount exhaust. He bought a universal muffler on Amazon, and after it arrived I got to work. I really wanted to do it all in stainless, but he is cheap, and time constraints being an issue I used what I had, which was some aluminized exhaust tubing. i cut the stick muffler off, and started making my pieces, I pie cut the pipe in places to make my bends. My goal was to keep the mid pipe close to the motor to give it a sleek look, and give good ground clearance. I managed to make a mount to use one of the stock exhaust mount points underneath, and for the muffler I dabbed a small bracket to be attached under the passenger peg. After it was finished up, I coated the section I made and we wrapped the pipe to help with heat. No issues with interference with your foot while riding, which was a key point for me when making it. Sounds really good for a $50 muffler. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 That's awesome....looks great! And removes the dumpster sized catalytic converter etc etc on the FZ09. Great bike! Has he upgraded that rear shock? They're absolute trash from the factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
