Posted November 22, 20204 yr Has anyone any experience of installing de-cat headers with an S W Motech bashplate. Are there any particular headers that are that fit without touching the bashplate? Conversely are there any headers that are known to cause fitting/clearance problems with the S W Motech bashplate?

This got me curious as I also have the engine guard from SWmotech. ... I sent an email to SWmotech ([email protected]) to enquire about compatibility ... you can do the same and if enough people ask they may realize it is a selling point and do it.
December 15, 20204 yr Author I(n answer to my own question, I have fitted Dominator headers to my bike and noted the following:- The headers fit ok but are very close to the front mounting bracket for the bash plate. When I say very close, they are within 2mm in my case. I also have Givi TN2145 crash bars on my bike and the exhaust headers foul the crossbar between the two sides of the crash bars. This is not a problem for me as I can make a new crossbar, but the original will not fit.
December 18, 20204 yr I have the same question about Leo Vince headers with an Adventure Spec skid plate. Anyone happen to know if these fit together? Now that Engineer has his answer, that is.
