Default Trade the SV for a ZX6R

Ok my local stealer has an amazing zx6r in there showroom, looks great with custom seats on instead of the standard black ones and in kawa racing green, the only downsides are it has the old 599 engine, it also has the original can on.
If i was to get an original can for the sv cheap and drop it on would my Scorpian can fit on the zx?

Cheers for any help

If you want a can for the SV you can have one of mine.

Theres 2 in my attic if you want one for free rather than cheap!

Doubt it very much!

But it would help immensely if you said which year of ZX6R you are talking about.

as you say old 599 I'm guessing up to 2001 ish? then it would be a 3 bolt fixing with no link pipe - so not much like an SV at all

i wouldnt be able to afford a new can for it as well for awhile so looks like im going to have to wait to get a new bike i guess.

No. It's very different on a 2007, which is also an old 599

oh yes forgot about that, they only made a few 599's after 2003 when they fitted started fitting the 636 engine i think.
the one im looking at is the 95-22 version i think its either 99 or 00.
