Exhaust middle collector

I've recently found that the "middle collector" on my 2004 RSV is seriously cracked (through the twisty~snakey rear pipe) and needs replacing. I'm finding that the 2006/07 collector is significantly cheaper than the 2004/05 part. But could they be that much different - after all the engine and frame are pretty much the same, aren't they? Has anyone tried fitting the later part? Just curious. Ta
 
I know the part numbers are different, but I'm pretty sure I've just fitted a set of 04/5 headers to my 06. Can't think what the difference would be???
 
Thought so. I've a couple of sets available, £25 plus post :thumbup

Redrat, I acquired a set for the track bike that are highly polished, look virtually chromed on the outside. Any advantage in that apart from cosmetics?
 
Hi Paul,

You're so close I can pop over to you after work and compare them. Only snag is I've placed an order for a new set now (got impatient to get things moving, and have had login issues when not at home) and am loathe to p*** off the parts dealer but happy to make the saving. Mmmm
 
Mate, your conscience, but I'd be pretty pissed if one of my buyers reneged after placing a firm order. Having said that it happens far to frequently.....
 
I know, which is why I've just called him, confirmed the order is happening, and will get a shiny new one. Just not in me to cancel, it's hard enough running a business. Thanks for your offer though, and that'll teach me to get the IT stuff sorted sooner. Happy riding.
