Re: New project... 86 GSXR 1100
Hi Guys, Hope all is well
I’ve been struggling to find time to work on my build as of late, but managed to get on in a bit more over the last couple of weeks. I found myself a rear brake caliper and had some custom spacers made up to make the B12 wheel fit. And I got going on the exhaust too. I decided against making the full system, figured the headers would be too much work for my amateur welding skills! So I purchased some Black Widow race headers, which are very nice indeed. Then proceeded to make the exhaust back from that. I purchased some 304 tubing and some pre-bent mandrels to suit. The mufflers however, I made and rolled myself from flat sheet 304. They were a b***h! But overall happy with what I’ve achieved so far.

Re: New project... 86 GSXR 1100
Thats some lovely work.
Out of interest are the spacers ally or stainless? |

Re: New project... 86 GSXR 1100
You are so patient in making the exhaust system almost from scratch #svbmx, I’d never have seen that through. I’d probably have found a system (or two) that was more or less right and done a cut and weld. You have done a really nice job though, well done.
I like projects that I can complete in a month or two, how long do you think this one will take you? I’m really impressed with your determination. Alan Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

... I’ve just read the whole thread. I’m really impressed with the tank/seat unit as well - and continue to be amazed at your patience - in that respect you are a better man than I am Gunga Din.
