are they worth it?
do the ones for the Banshee just bolt on with no intake modification?
thanks for any input

i have shipped 3 bikes
1 with a broker, $500, bike showed up in a rented penske box van- it was ok
the other 2 times i went with

https://haulbikes.com/

it was more $$$, like $700
but the bikes showed up in a very respectable semi that was designed for moving bikes and were not "brokered out" to a lowest bidder, the bike stays with haul bikes the entire time it is being shipped
both companies took around 3 weeks to deliver

poor DG pipes, get such a bad name
had a pair on my '84 rz and they tuned perfectly with stock carbs and airbox
maybe less quality materials?
they function great

hey all, just got an rz again, been like 10 years 
looking for suggested sizes for my RZ with stock wheels
also suggestions on types are welcome too, previously i believe i preferred the BT 45 to the Roadrider
thank you

 

I have this one. Not an RR, but 100% stock and mint condition '89 49-state model

i have always had love for the fizzer!
had an '89 and a '90 at different times
ended up buying this old racer with a blown 600 in it
guy had all the parts for the build stashed, but life had other plans for him
so i put it back together and ended up putting this Chini faring kit from the bay on it
this bike rides great

Well the SRX is up and running perfectly! I got the starting drill down and it's usually a one or two kick affair. The bike is very light and agile, definite back road burner. Now back to the RZ project..................................................D

yup, learning the method definitely helps
i love the handling but, the power is lacking, sure would have been a winner with a 2stroke twin in it

Yaman, I noticed the different oil cooler line configurations, whats up?...................D

it came that way, i honestly dont know what the benefit is

hot damn, that's a sweet one for sure, i dig that little upper fairing
also a nice looking intercepter you gots there
nice score on that bike

Wow, that is a super nice bike. I can see that one coming home!

hey thank you much Paul, it had been well kept in the previous owners board room but kept in riding condition which is what i saw attractive about it
i made an inquiry about that one you have pictured in your previous post, believe it is in North Dakota, still at the dealership it was delivered to in 1986- i think it has like 30 "roll around" miles on it
but would it be a sin to start it and ride it? (that answer is an opinion)
would it be expensive to make it roadworthy again- i think too much and worried about possibly dry rotted internal rubber parts, tires, brake lines, ya know; all the stuff that makes a $5oo dollar barn find actually cost $1500
i believe that guy was asking $5K for the one you pictured

its another fantastic candidate for a proper motor swap, i always think " a RZ motor would really do the trick on that bike"
i feel the same about the FZR400

so did you get it?
i went for one last year, its a real looker
sweet little town bike, not fast but lots of fun, sounds like a dirt bike
really small and nimble, i fell in love with its looks
the wife won't ride on the back of my other bikes, but she likes the srx

that is great work, and those pipes look sweet on that frame
keep posting
