IXXRA......The Home Of The Superblackbird

Hi peeps, I need to replace the 4 into 2
exhaust downpipes on my 1997 Bird. What I'd like to know is :- will the injected downpipes fit my bike ? It seems the earlier pipes are like hens teeth, unless you pay a premium price ! (anybody got a set for sale?) Regards, Sircular.

Hi Sircular, you'll probably have better luck on Facebook with your enquiries.......thats where they all hang out now.......
Im sure if you look deep enough into the archives on here you'll find the answer, good luck!

Hi Sircular yes injection downpipes fit the carby
and they are also stainless

Here you are Len

all the injected downpipes will fit the carb'd bike,

the later injected have a boss which needs plugging, not an issue,

I would try and get genuine Honda not aftermarket,

it might be cheaper to buy a complete infected bike, cheap has chips (but not Kostas chips)

Thank you all for your replies. I've bin looking around the interweb, & found a few sets , ( of later type )including some on fleabay , which I might bid on. Thanks again, Sircular. P.s. I'm not on Facebook.

Taffy on BIRD will sort you a set out Len. Wouldnt be surprised if grant hasnt got a spare set either m8

A wise choice.

Hi peeps, A question for oldbull :- is the "Grant" you mentioned also on "BIRD"? Only it seems I've to pay £5.50 for the privilege of his (taffy's) wisdom ? Bloody cheek of it ! Regards Sircular.

Yes Len it is Grant over there and on Facebook too.

You say the earlier downpipes are like hens teeth and cost too......don't know why as the earlier ones rot unlike the FI pipes which are stainless.

Hi Murph, So far, the only after market stainless downpipes, for a carb'd Bird, I've found worth getting are from the likes of, Delkevic, Black widow or David Silver. ( hence, the premium price !) Taking on board the advice from other forum users, (both here & on the BIRD forum) I'm going to try & get a used set from a F.I. Bird. Regards.

Grant is on here as well.. Ive pm.d you taffys number

Got it, thanks.
