    I think it is doable. It would be fun to try and set it up. I think you might get flamed by the purists, though. Maybe the post should go into the "Performance" forum. I know some of the guys here have done something similar.

            I doubt if the header will work. I installed a Vance and Hines SS2R from an oil cooled GSXR (94 I think) on my '80 1100E. The pegs needed to be moved. the header bolt spacing was wrong, and the inserts did not fit properly. I fixed all of those problems with custom parts - not easy. I do still have the files for CNC machining of the exhaust flange and insert.

            Your exhaust may not have an insert, but I still think you will have mating problems to the 1100.

            If you are using the GSXR exhaust with the GSXR motor, then you won't have the mating problems (obviously), but the pegs will probably need custom rearsets. If you go that route, I would scrap the old, heavy stuff and fit GSXT pegs. I used 2001 model year foot controls - complete, with the master cyliner and all.
