Hi Guys I’m getting to the business end of my Café build on my 1994 k1100lt. So it is Exhaust time and I would love to know what my options are, I’m a bit of a noob when it comes to exhausts. So a few Questions

Currently I have seen the Bsk collector which will end up costing close to $500 by the time it lands in Aus. Is there any more affordable collectors that I could get. I would love to get a new collector as this give me a large range of options for Slip on’s Etc.

Are there any other options I have that give me an affordable option to customise the exhaust.

Any help to put me on the right track would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Perfect Robert, Thank you very much, I will contact Malcolm now, exactly what I was looking for.

Do you no if the header pipes are the same on my 1994 k1100lt as the ones Malcolm makes

I'm sorry, I don't know. That's a perfect question to ask Malcolm though.

Do you just want to make more noise or have some other objective?

The Motronic CPUs on K11s are purposefully factory detuned to meet the optional 100HP Euro-max at the time. From my experience, an aftermarket exhaust will not make a noticeable difference in power.

I have both Staintune and Remus exhausts on my K11s. The Remus does sound cool without being loud but I doubt that it contributes to performance.

And if you want something faster then just buy a different bike.

Thanks for the info Flying Duck. The main reason I would like to change the exhaust is for looks. The current exhaust is just to big to go with the look of my Cafe racer K1100. I would also like a slightly louder exhaust. Performance isn't such a big deal for me, currently the bike has enough power for me.

On a side note I have tried contacting Malcolm in NZ but havn't had any luck. Does anyone know if he is still making collectors and how I can contact him.

Resurrecting an older thread.

Any opinions on or experience with reducing heat by using an aftermarket exhaust without a catalytic converter?

And on a different thought, does the complete 8 valve exhaust system fit on a 16 valve K-RS?

My RS has a Remus and my LT a Staintune. Neither of those have a cat. No heat change.

The thermostat in the radiator determines the temperature of the cooling system and therefore the heat in the engine compartment - that mostly comes from air flow through the radiator. A thermostat that runs at a lower temperature would run the engine at a temperature below its designed operating temperature.

A 2V exhaust MIGHT bolt up to a 4V but I suspect that the amount of back pressure (a very important aspect of exhaust design) would not be right.

Just my .02 but I think that the best solution would be to minimize the size of the relay box, run a big pipe through the hole that leaves with a secondary fan and pipe heat out below and behind the rider.

Either that or just take the fairing off and run naked.
