If i changed the sump on my gsxr 400 to a Bandit 400 sump could i then fit the bandit exhaust chop the end can off and fit a slip on?

its just since the bandits have stainless as standard i was thinking why not tbh...

Could this create any issues with clearance with the fairing lowers at all? Isnt the bandit sump lower than ours?

Hi mate, you cannot fit a Bandit sump to a 76a totally different fit.
Bandit sump will go on a 73a so long as you use the oil pickup etc but the Bandit exhaust hits the lower slightly.
