That's because there's no such thing as a "cheap" exhaust for the FZ6. Cheapest you'll find is around $700, unless you find a used one.

And if you want it done right, the bike has to be remapped.

If your looking at an ebay dealer do what I do, email them and ask for a better price, might be suprised how well you can do :p
Same goes for the online shops, a few emails and you might find a few good discounts.

How much? And what are cknatz?

Back in Aug 09 - I think the price delivered was @ $750 - I will check when I get home. Exchange rate was a little different then, but maybe US$110 for shipping? Not sure. I got them within a week.

Just go to the hardware store and start buying metric tools. You can never have too many tools.

Benj, Mat Mladins online shop sells Yoshi stainless for around $800. They do poke out abit though.

Still kinda expensive, but almost half the price I got quoted for Akra's.




Oops, my bad. You already got your pipes!
