hello,

I've had a dominator with the intention of building a custom bike out of it for a few months but the weather has been putting me off until recently.

I have a couple of questions which I can't find proper answers to. If someone could help answer them I'd appreciate it.

EXHAUST - I want a 2 into 1 exhaust. Are the headers from an XL600/XR600 a direct bolt on to the domi?
Alternatively I know you can get an exhaust with the 'y' coming down the front of the engine and then goes under it (as seen on a few well known builds :thumbup:) is this hard/expensive to get hold of?
Any info on exhausts would be helpful.

FRONT END - I don't plan on going off road once the builds done so I was looking to lower and stiffen the front, I've found guides on how to do this but at the same time I want to downsize the front wheel and have seen how expensive this can be on the existing hub, so, Is there a front end conversion which can be done without too much head scratching? I'm thinking finding a 'sportier' bike with the same stem size and swapping the whole lot inc. front wheel and brake. Does anyone know of any/know where to find out what will fit?
Again, any info is helpful.

Many thanks

my Dominator lost 5,3 kilos from the 2 on 1 exhaust.i have installed xr600r headers to my RD08 frame without problem.the only thing you must do is to make a bracket(very easy) in the end of the headers(green circle) which will be solidified on frame(red circle)

headers are too close with the oil drain bolt but there is no problem with the unscrew
