G'Day Ian, I'd love to see that pic too mate, I've got another friend in the US who's bought an "X" pipe for his Honda CB750 project bike, but hasn't fitted it yet, so I'm keen to see how it looks on your bike.

I think the pipes extend past the sump, so I can't see that being an issue, I've got an old set of 4 into 2 "drag pipes" (remember them?) on one of my CB750's, and they come out just past the engine, and I assume that the X pipes would be similar? Cheers, Terry.

Yeah, I'm a starter Terry.

I wasn't planning on running an oil cooler on the 850, but it may be an advantage after raising the CR. I guess I'll know after its first mid summer run.
I'm picking that the X-pipe system hasn't taken off because of the oil changing issues and excessive heat build up in the sump area due to radiation off those close fitting pipes.
PM me for details if you decide to go ahead.
Cheers
Ian

I'm posting a photo of my 850 with a 4-1 on it, not with an x-pipe.
It should be on site tomorrow.
Your'e right about the pipes clearing the sump area. There is still a big collector assy radiating heat right underneath the center of the sump and obscuring access to the drain plug.
Cheers

Oh, ok Ian, for a minute there you got me going.....................

Ok, I think I've got my act together this time.
The pic was taken last summer, with part of the bike in the shade so bevel isn't that clear.
I believe this pipe was made in NZ and that they are still available.
Cheers
Ian

I was curious about them too. I never saw a bike that had 'em before.
