cbr 900 fireblade exhaust
Hello all!
I am looking for an exhaust for my mk indy 1995 honda cbr 900 rr s fireblade
I cant find a lot of variety on the net. I was wondering what you people use and where did you find it?

Assuming you're talking about the silencer only, e-bay is usually a good source. Remember also that you don't have to use a Fireblade can.

Unless you're using the standard blade intake (airbox etc) and the standard blade manifold, you'll more than likely need to re-jet the
carbs anyway, even if you did fit a blade can.

I bought the car with the oem mk manifold and exhaust can on and is working fine.
Once on a trackday I tryed my friends exhaust can (he bought it off ebay and hedoesn't remember the bike who came out but it was a titanium
micron can)
and the car wasn't really like that change.
It is difficult to re-jet it to a garage cause is my racing car and not road legal. Can I rejet it my self? What tools do I need and how difficult it
is?

BenB's brother Dan did this useful little tutorial for Blackbird carbs a few years ago, but they're nigh on identical to blade carbs so
equally relevent to you.

When you say "OEM MK manifold and exhaust can", that's still an "aftermarket" manifold in so much that its not the one
Honda supply, so I suspect your carbs may have already been rejetted to suit the current setup. Are you running an open sausage type filter? If so
they're almost certainly re-jetted but may need even bigger jets with a more open can.

When I sayed oem I meant the kits one I know that it is no proper oem (honda), if that makes any sence...
anyway using the honda oem filter.
I was thinking if I re jet it to put a sausage filter and a new exhaust can.

Personally I wouldn't bother with the sausage/foam filter (there's no power gain) and I doubt it would need re-jetting either for a
different silencer (assuming it's already been re-jetted for the current setup)
Silencer doesn't have to be Honda either. Just about any manufacturers or aftermarket silencers will do.

re jet seems a fairly easy job to do if you buy the right kit.
How you know that you bought the right kit if the exhaust can and the filter is not oem?

There are various dynojet kits available that you can buy but like you say, how do you know which one is right for your application?
The obvious answer would probably be to go for the jet assortment kit. This would allow you to try out different sized jets and find which is
ultimately best suited to your specific application. However, this can be quite time consuming and involve a lot of trial and error.
IMO, your best bet would be to get it setup by professionals such as Holeshot, TTS, Powertec etc. on a rolling road. It may cost you slightly more in
the long run than just the kit but you'll be safe in the knowledge that your engine performs at it's optimum throughout the rev range and
in all gears with the set-up that you have.
