Header Clamps - What alternatives are there?

Post by Thom » Tue Jun 07, 2011 4:07 pm

I'm using standard Headers on my TRX but the clamps are well past there best, can anyone suggest replacements without having to chop or replace the headers? I've seen someone use kwak clamps but i dont remember which ones and now i cant find the thread.

Any ideas?

Cheers lads!

From memory it was GBeal (Graham) who used Kawasaki split collars on his `special` race system and I seem to remember them being ZX10 collars. Obviously that was the early ZX10 not the current version.
My drag racing pal lent me a ZZR1100 pair which would fit ok too, you may need to squeeze them in a vice a tad to close the spacing up to line up with the studs, all easily done though.
Here you go 15 quids worth :wink: :
