    Could those 750 headers fit on a Seca 650 or 900?

    I believe they will fit. I bought them for my Turbo but decided to refinish the OEM headers

    There are some that “will interchange” but not necessarily fit perfectly. I want to do an interchange write-up As some point but just have not had time to swap that many things yet.

    the issue is that:
    1. models have taller/shorter pipes
    2. models have narrower/wider exhaust port spread
    3. Collector box inputs vary in length, spread, distance forward/back
    4. Compound curves of pipes
    Etc.....

    I did get a 650rj that had 750 rj pipes on it.
    I had a 750rj that came with 900 pipes on it
    I have a 700 that had 650rj Pipes and collector box

    I did not investigate if there were any machining mods done.

    there ARE interchanges that “fit” and “work”, though not ideal.

    I have found that USUALLY interchanges work best when The pipes are used in conjunction with THEIR respective collector box.

    One constant is that the rear collector box mounting hole/engine bracket is always at the same location.

    That said, Longer pipes may either need an extra spacer since the collector may ‘hang’ a little lower, shorter pipes my bring the collector up a little ‘tight’, etc......The thing to do is put everything together as best you can LOOSELY. This allows sone of the ‘mismatched’ angles to ‘fit’. Once everything seems to be in place as best as possible, THEN start tightening things up evenly.

    you may need to create some muffler hangars, as those mounting points may not match if you swapped mufflers, too. I make those out of 1” (or so) by 1/8” flat steel. Measure, bend, cut, drill, paint semi-gloss black, and install.

    fwiw,
