Will a ZX6R exhaust (scorpion) fit onto my SV650 and run properly?

They have a 3 bolt fitting.

Same as all the other 3-bolts, you'll need to figure out some way to attach it to your headers. No guarantee the Banditmania adaptor will fit... As to running right, it should be fine- are we talking aftermarket or stock?

One can's much like another then. Some of the higher end companes do have different cns for specific bikes or engine types, but i wouldn't worry too much about that- most make only 1 or 2 variants and just slap them onto everything.

I'm a bit curious though, it's not like there's a lack of fairly cheap SV cans out there, why are you looking at taking on potentially quite a lot of extra hassle instead?

As Northwind said, they are all pretty much the same.

My yoshi end was bought for, and fitted to a Raptor 1000, then my dad fit it to his Hornet 600, then he sold it to me, all fit perfectly (with link pipes etc) didnt affect any running whatsoever.
