exhaust

hi all  i have the cbf 500 2008 model with abs i am looking for either a full stainless exhaust  or just stainless headers and use my original can end any recomemdations for the bits in question any brand /make and where to buy any info will be useful  i have looked on ebay but not much there

I suspect it's not quite as easy as with the CB500 - I *think* the CBF has a catalyst/air injection in the exhaust, so I suspect there are less aftermarket options.

Anyone know if the CB500 exhuast fits (the engine end will fit!)?  If so does anything need to be modded?

The cbf exhaust is different to the cb, the engine end will fit as it's almost the same engine but the other end is longer on the cbf due to the frame being different. So it won't fit, however there are stainless header pipes available for the cbf made by the same people that do them for the cb.
The air injection set-up is in the cylinder head ports so the exhaust is pretty straightforward.

so could i use a cb header pipe and my original end can

No, it won't fit as it's designed for a different frame. Get one designed for the CBF like this

Avoid black widow exhausts if at all possible, they're a load of crap. I think mine has one...

It was just an example
But thanks for the heads up, I was considering one.
