Yesterday I parked up the Kawasaki ZX-6R Ninja outside a shop and some bloke just came up to me thinking that he knew me. I then found out that he was the previous owner of the bike.

The good thing apart from the him telling me what he had done to the bike was that he had a Haynes manual for the bike aswell as a Oval Scorpion Race can that I could take off his hands for £30! BARGAIN.

I followed him to his house, which was only down the road from where I live and took them off his hands.

The bad news, Sad he couldn't find the bracket. So my question is, does anyone know where to pick one of these up online, thats if they sell them separatley. I have already had a quick look on the Scorpion website aswell as M&P, but no luck.

I want to get this as soon as possible. Can't wait to put the can on! Laughing

Rather than just looking on the site, have you tried contacting them by phone or email.

try https://www.aa16.co.uk/a16exhaustparts.htm i just got a bracket off him for an exhaust which i got off the previous owner with no bracket. which is very good Thumbs Up
its at the bottom of the page - stainless exhaust strap

just give him a ring as if you email him he'll want you ring him anyway.

oh yeah make sure you order it with the rubber aswell so it won't scratch.

Thank for the info phil.c, I rang him up and ordered the part. I think it was around £13 all in.

I asked a dealer for scorpion to contact them and ask how much. He got back to me and said it around £15 for the part plus £8 for delivery. No thank you!!!

I'll post some pics when fitted!!

Probably because we're either:

A) Not as mechanically minded as you

or

B) We/he are lazy
