KZ650F KZ750E Muffler System. Used. Good condition. $195 Total Shipped.  
Looks good but the system isn't perfect.  There are a dozen or more minor flaws, most of which are kind of hidden.
There are minor crease dents on the engine side of each of the headers near the top bends. RH muffler cover has a road rash scrape. 
System does not have the muffler hanger brackets. Headers have golden discoloration at the top.
This system is almost as good as the 750E mufflers I have on my KZ650-CSR.







Arrow indicates where road rash scrape is.

I would spray that with Rustoleum silver bar-b-que grill paint.

That systems is very tempting, martin.  It's hard to find them in that condition anymore.

It's a solid system.  I need to box it up and get a shipping price to see if I can adjust the price down some. 
It didn't have much rust, but I wire wheeled the manifold section some using soft brass jeweler's wire wheels, prepping it for the same paint treatment as the system on my motorcycle. But my dremel suffered the fatal Magic Smoke and I haven't touched it since.  doh.

I've shipped several exhaust systems before, and the key thing is to get the box to fit under the UPS "oversize" criteria.  Something like 106" max, girth + length.  I used two boxes, nested together, pushed to the tightest safe length possible.

This is the system on my 4-80 750E, I’ve been looking for a replacement as the PO hacked out the baffles and welded up the crossover. How close is your set to my original? Does your current CSR have the Sankei system?

I'm interested if Mikaw doesn't buy it.  I have a 650 project that's been sitting for several years.  It needs an exhaust system.

Where are you located?

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

This may be an opportunity to help define the ID or our mystery 4/2 Bassani (?) system.  There's been some speculation it might fit a KZ750.

Martin,
If you could, please, reply with:
Spigot (large collar) OD of the head pipes.
Center-to-center distance of the 1-2 and/or 3-4 head pipes.  Inch OK, mm better.  Same measure of the 2-3 head pipes if different.

Thank You.

Good Ridin'
