Ah the good old "I hope I don't regret" after hearing it the first time😅😂 tells me enough about how loud it is. Installing mine today on my 2018 Z900 70kw
Un-mount the cooler may have took some time but may gain alot of less frustration working between the engine and cooler fitting those 4 header connections.
@@SoloMCRider yes you can see it at time 5:13 clearly. And time 9:12 . Lol Z900 is no KTM. I mange to do 1200km and the oil level didn't budge att all.
Sweet tyres. Looks like Dunlop sportmax Q3+ ? Is the warmup fast like street tyres or more for hot summer riding ? I been riding Pirelli angel GTII on my honda and stock tyres on my Z900. Pirelli feels tipping over to sudden but once settled in corner its stable. Dunlop Roadsport 2 are a tiny bit better then version 1. But i don't trust em at all due to much slipping when leaned over. But pretty stable tipping into a corner and not same surprise i have with the Pirellis. *Dunlop Roadsport v1 was notoriously bad tyres and outright dangerous i had on my Z800.
Yes it is Dunlop sport max Q3+ , I took a nail on my tire last year so decided to go with better tire. Stock tire is not the best for cold weather specially where I live it gets cold 🥶.
Sounds mean!!! When I first got my 2020 Z900 last summer I put on the same LV10 slip on as you. Then a few months later put on the full Akrapovic system. Now I'm kinda getting tired of the loudness as I ride day in and day out. Seriously thinking of putting the stock headers back on breadbox and all and putting the LV10 slip on back on. Wish there was a way to get the throaty mean sound of a full system, but at a reduced decibel level. Seems like it is all or nothing with this bike. I used to have a 2018 ZX6R and a 2013 GSX-R 750 and both had only slip ons and they sounded mean, but not overly obnoxious.
I did even get the chance to ride the bike yet, I can tell it’s going to be painful after a while. If it gets really bad I will try to find a slipon with db killer, let’s get some ride in before thinking about future lol 😂 Ride safe and enjoy!
@@SoloMCRider Defintely looking forward to a test ride video to hear how it sounds. I actually love the sound of my full exhaust, I just wish I could tone it down a bit. We'll see what I decide. Still on the fence and will give it more time and thought. BTW, I really like your content and especially the DIY videos. It goes to show that with a little determination and patience you can do a lot on your bike without paying a shop to do it.
Hello, yes of course! I ordered my full exhaust system headers from revzilla.com Headers about $560 and the Slipon $280 . You can check out their website for recent price. Thank you
I had a question: How did you screw the heat shield back on? It didn’t seem to have anywhere on the full system to screw on to but at the end you had it on.
LeoVince Headers came with a clamp that goes around the exhaust pipe that has a screw hole on it so i was able to put the heat shield back on with one screw only. i have few people ask the same question so on my next vlog will show you guys. thank you for the sub. ride safe and cheers!
Would I be able top put on the full exhaust on my z900 without flashing the ecu right away, or do you recommend flashing it then doing the full exhaust?
Of course you can install full system exhaust without ECU tune! I installed a full system on 2022 50th anniversary Z900 and bike runs perfect no check engine light or anything. A tune will have better air fuel mixture which result in better ride quality, depending on the tune you can unleash some horsepower!
Morning mate, I just installed this on my '22 z900, and had issues with the mounting bolt to the frame behind the rear brake. It is hard to tell in the video but did you manage to get that screwed in or leave it out?
Hello mate, first of all congratulations 🎉 on your new ride! I don’t remember having issues getting the bolt into the frame. Just make sure the headers are connected to the engine head properly ( seated/ aligned properly) hope that helps. Ride safe!
Mate how did the bike run after you put the full system on did you have to get it put on the dino or was it ok and is it harder on fuel just want to no cause I was thinking of putting full system on I already have the akraprovic slip on
I got the ECU tuned before installing the full system. Bike runs great will full exhaust system, you can definitely tell the power increase! Akrapovic slipon on sounds amazing 🤩 that is probably why I’m getting poor fuel mileage because I’m riding the bike on lower gear to hear the sound lol but I enjoy the sound so much!! Hope you find a way to put your full system on soon! Enjoy 😉
@@SoloMCRider one last question. without the ecu flash, do I have to plug the o2 sensor in? since it is a decat system, it will most likely end up triggering the check engine light
Hey man. I know that you no longer have this bike but do you remember what you actually did to delete the O2 sensor? I heard you say that you would cut it but is that what you actually did?
Hey mate, I did remove the O2 sensor, with the ECU tune they were able to delete the use of O2 sensor so when I unplugged it I no longer had a check engine light because ECU was no longer looking for the sensor!
@@SoloMCRider gotcha. Did you just cut the wire and tuck it or did you completely remove the wire and plug the hole? Sorry if I wasn't clear on my initial question.
@@lumpvision5746 I did cut it and plugged the hole. Cutting was the easy way out but not recommended, I was too lazy to take thing apart to get to the plug so I just cut the cable separate both ends of the cable and tape it very well to make it waterproof and tucked away. But if you have the time unplug it lol
Thank you! Not as as bad as I thought it would be, I’m actually enjoying the sound! Bought myself a pair of ear plugs, even without plugs not as bad on the freeway 🛣 and cops don’t bother much around here but I have yet to find out lol 😂 Enjoy riding and be safe! Cheers 🥂

Well done! I’ve installed Firetong full system ok my bike! My bike sounds like a beast!
I’m not used to loud exhaust sound, but very exited to try it out on high rpm!!!
Thank you
Looks great and sounds even better. ;-)
Greetings from Denmark, Z900 2019.
Un-mount the cooler may have took some time but may gain alot of less frustration working between the engine and cooler fitting those 4 header connections.
I could have to make it easier but I had the time lol
Good job dude! she looks and sounds Clean
The bike sounds great. Great job in doing it yourself.
Check your oil level ASAP (bike is on rear stand, perpendicular, yet, no oil is showing)
Will do when I get back in a week!! Thank you
@@SoloMCRider yes you can see it at time 5:13 clearly. And time 9:12 . Lol Z900 is no KTM. I mange to do 1200km and the oil level didn't budge att all.
Nice catch !
You guys ruined my vacation 😂 I can’t wait to go back to check engine oil, I’m 1000 miles away lol
Is it the same with kawasaki z800e Abs 2015?
I got my z 1week ago and triying to save up to buy a sc or an ar full exhaust

After installing the direct exhaust, there was an unpleasant smell from the pipe? Have you changed your fuel cards?
Well the bike runs much richer now after the tune so I do smell fuel bit more. I don’t know is there a fix ?
Hi.. Can you please tell us how much it did cost and where did you get the full system.. Thanks

Besides giving it a badass sound, does your bike ride and handle better or is it a bit same?
Well I have ECU flash and with the full system I can tell the power increase!!
Why did you sell the full system bro?
lol too loud for me !! My neighbors won’t like me anymore. Cat back is the way to go … !
Sounds awesome👍
How did u got the heat shield ???
Leovince headers came with a clamp and a adapter to install the heat shield but only one screw holding it !
Can u plzz help with name of the part or pic

is an ecu flash required with the leo Vince system?
did you also replace the head gaskets?
I don’t think ECU flash required but recommended to get the bike run better and unlock rest of the HP hidden in the engine!
No I didn’t replace the head gasket, I don’t think it’s necessary, these engines are built to handle more power!
@@SoloMCRider thanks man

@@SoloMCRider Haha. That's what I was looking for. I think I'm going to take the easy way out myself 🤣🤷🏾♂️. Thanks for the video and information.
Did u change the gaskets when installing? Or reuse the old one
The headers didn’t come with the gasket so I just left the oem ones in there but now I have the gasket, soon I will use them .
Sounds badass. Are you regretting how loud it is? Cops here in California are jerks with loud exhausted
Thank you! Not as as bad as I thought it would be, I’m actually enjoying the sound! Bought myself a pair of ear plugs, even without plugs not as bad on the freeway 🛣 and cops don’t bother much around here but I have yet to find out lol 😂
Enjoy riding and be safe! Cheers 🥂
I've been debating if I should go with the full exhaust or not.
Go for it ! You will like 👍
Great video question how did you attach the carbon header shield to the header?
Price
Around $550 for the headers on revzilla.com
8000 revs and u wake up the whole neighborhood i'm afraid. But no need to rev it so hard until the highway. But sounds alot better.
My neighbor is going to hate me now, I do go to work early morning lol
How did u manage to put on the heatshield back on there?
Leovince headers came with a clamp has a screw on it so I was able to put the heat shield on with 1 screw ! It’s holding pretty good!
@@SoloMCRider do you have a photo or a link of the clamp?
Yes I have a picture, email me solomcrider@gmail.com
Lol i was looking everywhere for this. But tbh im a little worried because I got a full SC Project not leovince. Which btw sounds really good!
Still currently waiting on the mid pipe & headers to come in
