Will 83 Katana 1100 exhaust fit 84 GS1150?

Will an 83 Katana 1100 exhaust fit a 84 GS1150? Looks right. I'm not worried about minor adjustments more my GS1150ef faring or centre stand a problem? Anyone familiar with both bikes? I've been told the header will bolt up but the muffler mounts will need tweeking. Any comments on the faring or centre stand would be appreciated.

The only model that will interchange with the Kat exhaust system is the '83 GS1100E/ES

You're wrong. The 1150 exhaust will fit the Katana. El G.

As Gordon said, you are WRONG! All the HEADER sections are the same from each manufacturer for the 1100e, Katana, & 1150s! The megaphones are the same also! The difference is where the rear hanger bracket is placed on the megaphone. Ray.

I picked up a header from a 750 or 1100 and I believe it was a GS around 1983, they fit my 1150 perfect, but I had a muffler shop make me a custom tube connecting the header at the bottom over to the VH muffler, it cost me $75 at the muffler shop, I got the header from a junkyard in Hayward Ca that had a big junkyard bike section, the yard is gone now, but man it was awesome when it was there, Im sure some people in the bay area remember this place, you wouldnt believe all the parts I got over the years for dirt cheap...
