Anybody know if a Sport Production system for a carb XX will physically fit a 99 up? If not, why?

Thanks
PGA XX
I know Jimmyz250 has a '97 w/ a full Akra sport production system, and I have the same system on my '02. There may be slight differences, but I think it's the same :?:

Yes it will fit with some washers to the radiator mount, and trimming the plastic. You may have to trim the left lower a bit underneath. Biggest problem is the radiator mounting.

I have a X11 and the bottom of my radiator mounts to a bracket that is on the motor and comes out between the center pipes. Does the blackbird rad mount to tabs on the head pipes?

So you have the 97-98 system on your 02?

I asked Akra this question and received a response that didn't explain in detail:

Dear Sir,

Unfortunately it will not fit, because the header tube assemblys and the linkpipes are different.

Best regards,

Zadeva: RE: CBR1100XX sport production


Dear Ales,

Thank you for the help.

I have one more question.

Can a CBR1100XX Sport production system for 96-98 work on a 99-03 ?


What is the difference?
Does the later model have a o2 sensor mount?

Thank you,

Chris

That reply is correct, they are different. But, many places here in the states carry only the earlier version and sell it as a one size fits all..without the owners the any wiser.

The radiator mounts on a bracket on the head which you will need to space out, also the bottom link tube will hit the plastic and will require some spacers under the left lower. I have the correct system on a 99 and it also needs these....there isn't a bunch of difference..if you are buying new...get the correct one...used and a good price.....try it and see what you think.....
