Question?

Has anyone ever mounted an X1 header on an XB? It looks to me that the X1 pipe is more of an equal length header. I will be using a slip-on exhaust.

I need to know if it will clear the XB frame. Looking at photos, it looks like it might work.

I like the looks of the X! pipe. You may ask why but I have my crazy reasons.

Thanks for any answers you can give.

It's a no go.
The rear pipe just won't fit due to the tightness of it all.

do equal legnth headers really 'work' on single-pin crank motors?

Thanks Glitch......I thought it was a little tight.

Dmp0001......the Trojan Horse pipe is way out of my price range, but it is a nice piece of work.

Thanks for the advice.

Does this mean that you have an extra X1 header?
Mine is dented and generally beat.
Just sayin'....
