Default exhaust springs for 2 bros exhaust...and another Q

i bought a full two brothers exhaust off this guy on ebay. its all good..got it for $100 shipped. didn't come with the exhaust springs that were sposed to be there. i searched 2 times, mom searched 2 times...couldn't find them in the packaging. now he can't find them, but he has others of various lengths. can anyone with a two brothers exhaust on their 96-97 cbr 900rr...take one off and give me the unsprung length of them while off the exhaust????

my other question is bout my headlight...i have the airtech nsr gp fairing kit that uses the flush headlight. it uses one h4. thing is i bought a new headlight from them cuz the other one was cracked...and a 55w h4 bulb. and it melted up the top of the housing...any info on why a 55w bulb burnt the **** out of a brand new headlight? plz lemme know whats up pretty plz...thanx

I will, but what exhaust, and what year? I JUST got a 95 CBR900 with a 2 bros carbon exhaust. I don't know if it's full or slip on, but there are springs on it for sure.

And here you are:

Mine were really pretty easy. I didn't use tools, just unhooked the ends. Took <1 minute on my particular system.

Yup, a carbon system that the previous owner put on. When I grabbed that spring, I just noticed that there are 2 more springs lower down, and I'm missing one.... and I just got back from the hardware RIGHT before I noticed.

Yup, roughly 2 1/4 inch or 2.5 inch. So, that's about right... I'm sure there are a few sizes that will fit.

On btw you have a full system because the slip on was not avail for the 900 just a bolt on was. If it has springs it has to be a full system.
