Pipe question

I have a 91 vfr, which I love. I just saw a pic of one on which the pipe was on the left side of the bike, instead of the right. As a result, you could really see the single sided open swingarm, and I kinda liked the way it looked. How is this done?

Thanks!

 

I also have a gen 3 with the SSSA covered by the pipe! I would also like to know how hard it would be to change sides, and any negative effects it could have.

 

Here's a pic.

No making neck happy.

 

someone made a left side exhaust for 3rd gens, not sure what company and from what ive heard/read they are hard to come by. Now.. I went to my favorite muffler shop and they said they would make me a mid pipe, if it works out ill share the news and maybe a 3rd gen can swing down to the modeato area and have one made up that will fit 3rds. this is as far as ive gotten into it, i dontknow what else will be involved ( bracketry etc.) but it looks like it will happen at some point.

 

Thanks! If you get it figured out, let me know what was involved.

 

Hey guys, from another forum.......I'm not paying this kinda scratch!

Pipe Question - VFRD

There are two links, one to a left side exhaust system sold in england....it's at around 535 on ebay right now. The other link is to a guys page that talks about exhausts for our bikes....anyway, enjoy!

 

Left side pipe requires you to lose your centerstand if you have one. I almost bought a left side exhaust but use my centerstand too much so I ditched the idea.

Two Brothers use to make one (I've got two, ones a spare just incase), the only draw back is the loss of the center stand, but for me it was worth it. It sounds great, looks great, and lost a bunch of weight over the stock exhaust.

I am very happpy! I havent stopped grinnin since you sold it to me!

After seeing the other bikes with the pipe on the other side, I didnt know if it was a minor detail - like just unbolt, walk to the other side of the bike and rebolt.... I certainly wouldnt want to lose my center stand in the proccess.
The only mod I have scheduled for the future of my bike is to wash it and detail my nice white wheels!

I couldnt iimagine anyone that would trade the center stand for the other sided pipe. I am curious what the original thread starter thinks now that he knows about that detail?

 

Happy to oblige....my bike doesn't have a center stand! I'd love to find one, and if you know someone that has an extra, I'd be greatful if you'd point em my way!

 

had a lefty

when you dig into the left turns however, you drag that damn thing unless you get a high mount adapter. surprised I haven't seen this post before...
