Just fitted one to my Z1000A1, Great value, perfect fitment & looks the goods. THe only thing left to tick off is how it sounds, thats still a bit down the track though.

Pic for reference, I went the shorter model rather than the megaphone look.

Just fitted mine and have to say I'm quietly impressed. decent quality & fit and unlike many aftermarket systems it retains the main stand which is a BIG plus for me. (even comes with a bracket and rubber for the stand to sit against)

Not had the bike running yet as still needs some finishing but so far pretty happy, especially when you consider the price..

I had the sports / performance version (not the megaphone style) fitted to my Katana. The system was relatively cheap and fitted well. Quality was good. Where it falls down badly was performance. Even with an air corrector kit in the carbs the engine was down on power and struggled to pull cleanly. Removing the baffle helped but made it far too noisy. I sold the thing on and bought a Racefit Legend system. The performance difference is huge but then so was the cost difference. If you are looking for a cheap and cheerful pipe and are not worried about maximizing performance they are fine but if you want a proper performance exhaust then save up and go Racefit or Jaygui.
