I cant seem to find a nice short can exhaust for my 01 F4i in a reasonable price, so I was wondering if I bought....say...a scorpion oval slip on for a 05 gsxr 600 would there really be so much of a negative response mechanically?

New to bikes, but doesnt seem like it would be such an issue to me?

 

My friend has an '01 f4i and we installed a scorpion pipe from an '06 and up gsx-r 600. Bike runs great and sounds great too. It will not fit directly to your bike though. We had to do a little fab work.

 

Not fit directly how? What did u guys need to do? Thanks

 

The can won't fit your mid pipe usually. So it won't direct bolt on. You'll usually need customize one

 

Its possible, but a custom mid pipe is needed. honestly there are better choices out there than a 05 gsxr pipe, unless it is a 1000. Up until 05 the 600 and 750 had a bolt on type canister rather than the much more common and easier to adapt slip on style canister. Do to this fact there are plenty in the gsxr world who swap the 04 1000 header on there 04/05 600 for a greater variety of available exhaust choices.

 

Used shorty ART pipe

Used Two Bros Pipe could be cut down into a nice uncommon shorty

 

@champ...did you guys install the muffler on it as well? im not 100% but i thought they had mufflers and the can as well..just wondering cuz i would like to put a short can like that on my bike but dont wanna affect the power or backpressure

 

Nope, just the can. Had to use part of my old midpipe to make it work. Would recommend a power commander to optimize the air/fuel ratio to maintain maximum power tho.

 

Hey city what year is your gxxr can?? What exactly did u do to fit it on the mid pipe?

 

i used a two brothers slip on from an 08 gsxr1000 and it was almost a perfect fit. Had to have my buddy cut off the end of the midpipe and weld on the end of an f4i midpipe so it connect to the headers properly but other than that not much else work was needed to be done. If you go through my f4i album youll see it. All the mufflers and midpipes are the same for the most part, theres really no difference from one bike to the other besides the way the midpipe is bent to fit the bike. Theres obviously exceptions but for the most part just find a used exhaust that you like and you can get a custom midpipe made for your f4i and youll be good to go.
