Slip-on, full system, de-cat, servo buddy, check engine lights, and resonator expansion chamber removal discussed and answered! We get to the bottom of all the questions that you may have about exhausts for your Kawasaki Ninja zx-6r. Below are all the parts I ordered, some were used, some were not. We never got a check engine or f1 light (cel) because we only unhooked the cables to the servo and left it plugged in, so no codes to clear, but I show how to do that if we did. This exhaust sound is very loud so I put a link to another slip on exhaust with a removable decibel killer that will be a little quieter, and with the DB killer in, it will be much quieter. Comment with any questions you may have, enjoy!

I am once a vlogger and I think I would need to get my 4$$ back because of you. I was inspired first by DoitwithDan around 2017 and now 2024, you did the same. Watching this coz I am thinking of getting zx6r, not so soon yet but I feel excited just by thinking I have informative videos from you. Hoping to see more content like this. Practical. Informative. No wasted time by cutting out what's not needed. You answered all my questions in a long 25min video. You deserve far more subscribers than you have right now. EDIT: I subscribed after watching this video. 1st one was when you changed oil of this beast.

@@bikesandbangsI really hope so. My Allen wrenches are in one of those pop out sets. I may need something better with more leverage. I tried for 2 hours tonight. You give me hope. As for the servo. I saw that tonight and was like wtf is that. I may have violently pulled it from the stock pipe. Oops. Anyhow. Links are here and now I have hope and pipe comes tomorrow. Picked up my 24 zx6 last week. So excited. Dropping 2 inches. On that note, do I need to make any adjustments to the suspension after that drop?

@bikesandbangs 2 месяца назад

You won't need to adjust the suspension settings to maintain the same ride quality with lowering links, should feel the same. It will corner and handle different in the twisties though because it does slightly change the geometry of the bike. If you haven't had a chance to really throw it around you won't notice a difference 👍

Just btw, not saying anything is necessarily wrong, but it can take up to 100 miles in some cases before the ecu re-checks all sensors in order to throw a code or not, sometimes just resetting the battery works too but not always

@jeremykopatz4760 19 дней назад

geez...my 6MM bolt for the resonator chamber part came somewhat stripped by the factory! I have to call a friend over with mechanical wizardry to hopefully help me find a way to get it off. I got everything off just fine, even the 6mm bolt just below the tough one, so I know my hex size is right. What sort of monster put this thing together?!?! Edit: My friend used a hammer to bang the hex socket into that slightly stripped bolt and was able to get that monster off! Also prying that nut out of the metal housing on the back of Res Chamber was much harder on my bike than the video, I ended up having to Dremel saw it open enough to get that nut out! Everything else was exactly like the video, thank you very much for the help here!

@TheBoggledMind 3 месяца назад

I have good news and i have some bad news, good news is i can confirm on a 2023 zx6r that keeping the servo plugged in does not throw any codes or prompt an engine light no servo buddy needed. Now for the bad news, that last bolt you had trouble with on the expansion chamber also is giving me one hell of a time, it snapped my allen key so now i have a tip of an allen wrench wedged in there so now I am stuck trying to get that thing out.

@user-gv1ct3gy5m Месяц назад

@unstoppable2131 3 месяца назад

Thank that's so informative. I have a question. What if I let the expansion chamber intact and just put on a slip on exhaust. Does it make a great sound? Or do I really need to remove tha expansion chamber?

@bikesandbangs 3 месяца назад

It's the same sound, just barely a bit quiter. The audio doesn't come through great on my cameras so I couldn't tell a difference on film. I'd throw one on with the chamber intact, if you want louder, then just get the $55 link pipe that removes it. My setup is really loud though, like extremely. Depends what you want

Is there a way to make bike loud by using the stock exhaust? i mean just remove servo cable and by default that butterfly valve is always on and remove the breadbox and put a linkpipe with stock exhaust.. will it work?..

@bikesandbangs 2 месяца назад

So I think you could do the link pipe to the stock muffler with the servo cables removed. But 90% of your sound dampening is in the muffler, so it will be a little more volume, but not much. The link pipe to delete the bread box is $65 and a no name mufflers is only $35 more. What is your reasoning in wanting to keep the factory muffler?

@ScooterNinja 2 месяца назад

there's no point in doing ANY exhaust work if you're not planning on getting the ECU flashed.. there is literally zero gain and all you did was make the bike louder. that being said, if you do get a FULL system (the only worthwhile exhaust upgrade) and have the ECU flashed to that system for max benefit, they can tune out the servo so you wouldn't need a servo buddy anyways. they'll also tune out the AIS/smog system and the o2 sensor so you'll be free of CELs and all the restrictions and their weight in extra parts.. i dropped over 30lbs between the exhaust, lightweight antigravity battery, servo motor, passenger pegs, mirrors and rear signal/plate/undertail crap.
