as i'm sure most of you are aware, downpipes that fit our beloved fizzers properly are a bugger to find, and most of you will have stumbled across these on eBay:

i own the 1989 FZR400R 3EN2 and can say without doubt that they do not fit this model!! the pipes cut out the exup system which is what i wanted since mine was giving me grief anyway, but my guess is that they will fit the 3EN1 model.

back to the point, i have a set of these in brand new condition (only unwrapped, fitted to the bike and removed straight away) which i am selling for £100. anybody interested please email the_rich@hotmail.co.uk or post on the forum :)

Sorry to hear about that rich - those are probably 3TJ pipes and no they won't fit a 3EN2

The 1WG exup systems are a common part for the FZR400R SP, 3en1, and 3en2 they are all marked 2TK. I assume Sandy Bike Spares won't take the system back even with a handling charge ???

got 4 downpipes made in stainless steel, all i did was cut them of at the exup collector box, sent the inferior mild steel over to DENS EXHAUSTS LONDON, within a week, had them back, complete with new headers made from 12mm stainless, lazer cut, fitted downpipes to bike, then exup collector box, tack welded them, removed them and tig welded them to collector box, also stainless.

Result, easily cleaned, and will never rust . Total (cost £115) just watch you hands, stainless steel get very very hot.

Previous to this I had 100's of pitted pin holes in each mild steel downpipe. loosing top end!
