I posed a question months ago about being able to use a Gen I headpipe on a GenII. Today I found out they are interchangeable. I have a nicely decatted '05 headpipe that I wanted to install on my '08. It bolted right up and I couldn't find any measurable difference between the two. Although Yamaha lengthened the wheel base for Gen II, they apparently didn't change the length of the exhaust. I know Yamaha changed the part number for the Gen II headpipe, but maybe they changed vendors. In any event, this good news saved me some time and money.

Ah, the dangers of drinking while posting. Let that be a lesson to us all.

BN - I know this is a stupid question, but why do you need a 3/8 staple :moil: when staying in a Holiday Inn (Express or otherwise)? Or is this part of some sort of self-bondage thing?

If you can't read this :blind: , get someone else to do it for you. Or do you need that anyway?

Glad to know the swelling's gone down. You'll be able to continue plying your escort trade, then? :rolleyes: .

ATGATT takes on a whole new meaning.
