Gen 2 akrapovic slip ons to gen 1

Few more pics here. They have been polished a lot and are more or less spotless. As others have said I think it would spoil the bike to change them.

Thanks . I might look into gutting them

I drilled nine 1/2” holes thru the baffles on a set of OEM Gen1 cans and although the sound was great (for short rides) the dyno showed a five HP loss.

Will just leave as is then I think

I'm not familiar with the gen1, but maybe you could swap to a gen2 header and use those.

Will Gen 2 headers bolt right up no problem?

I don't see how they wouldn't. Same frame, bolt pattern, etc... Maybe fairing clearance is a little different. But lot's of people run gen2 exhaust on gen1s and vice versa. Hell, I run a gen2 exhaust system on my gen3 with zero clearance issues.

The Gen1 can't have the center-stand on(if you have one) with most Gen2 headers, and the Gen2 muffler(s) have to have sliding hangers, as the Gen1 and Gen2 passenger pegs/muffler mounts are in different locations.
