    Has anyone seen an XJ 900f with a Yamaha R1 exhaust system fitted to it? This one has the silencer only fitted.

    I'm all for making it as quiet as possible. Cosmetically its a bit odd but I like it.

    I doubt that the R1 headers will fit. The cylinder spacing will be different.

    The silencer seems awful close to the foot rest to me. I wonder how it actually sounds.

    On a lot of sport bikes the silencer is extremely close to the foot pegs, friend of mine has a stock Kawasaki he has melted his shoe on more then once lol
