The outer diameter of the one I just hacked off my K5 is 55mm. To be honest, you're better off ensuring you get a can with a made for SV link pipe rather than going on the pipe dimensions - because if it's 54mm or 56mm you're a tad screwed.
Most exhaust folks flog 99-02 and 03+ cans, so from that I'd deduce that any injection pointy is going to be the same. EDIT: Just re-read and on second thoughts I'm guessing the injection comment is more along the lines of "will a can for another bike work with the SV, and does the donor bike need to be a fuel injection model?". In which case, my don't blame me if it blows up, answer would be "sure, don't see why not" and "can't see why it would need to be an injection model versus a carbed model". 4 stroke cans are pretty simple affairs really, the link pipe is the only issue in fitting. Obviously a 2 stroke can and expansion chamber are completely different (and far more of a dark art). With budget Fuel cans going for less than £100 though, I'd think you're better off just getting a "proper" one. Last edited by MiniMatt; 18-06-07 at 01:03 PM. |

Budget CCC cans at about £100 too. I didn't choose mine (already on bike) but am quite happy with it.
