ZX14 EXHAUST ON C14

You would need to cap the outlet for the left side at the downpipe. Other than that there isn't a reason why it wouldn't work. The increased flow of the header is probably enough that you would want some sort of tuner to be on the safe side, especially if you are planning on pulling the flies.
Is anyone out there considering a dual system for their C-14?
I came across this today and thought day-um those look good!
Thought I would share the info in case someone is feeling energetic.
Couple these mufflers with an early (non-cat) ZX-14 header and you would have a complete {dual exhaust} system that performs very close to the Full Area P system. (Supposedly the best preforming header for the C-14)
(This is the best condition/cheapest early ZX-14 header I've seen in some time).
Ride safe, Ted
Also came across this. I have no idea who MIVV exhaust is?
Looks to be a true Tri Y (4 into 2 into1) and no creases so the damage to the muffler is repairable.

I just installed a zx14 full hindle exhaust on my 2016 c14
I don't know about you, but I had to get reducers to quiet mine, after install I was not happy being Racer Boy at almost 60 yr old
Luckily I found out Two Brothers made different sizes, I got the quietest and happy I did,
I went for a test ride with the open exhaust and a cop had someone pulled over and I was getting it on, the look on his face said it all to me,
TOO loud.

I remember back in the day, when I was only
about 25, a buddy gave me a Hindle exhaust for my ‘82 KZ1000J. Well youthful me didn’t tighten up the exhaust can and when I got on it, the can flew off and sounded like a pro stock. That was fun coming back into the trailer park

TwoTones; What is the diameter of the head pipes on the Hindles?
44mm
Attachments
It appears that maybe the Hindle head pipe tapers (or flares) 44mm from the 3?mm head port?
Also guessing that the cylinder pairing is 1/2 and 3/4 (??).
Back when I did my bike, I threw out some wild ideas and also collected Header info.
Can you add the Hindle Info to this?

ZX-14 or ZX-14R Exhaust for a C-14?
To all that have installed a ZX Exhaust (or other) on a Connie; Here is my sad story. Recently I purchased a (2013) ZX-14R OEM Header that I may install on my Connie. NOTE: I already love the way the bike runs, but wanted a project. Reason for the 2013 ZX-R exhaust in this project; ...

38 to 44 yes
Good looking system!
So;
Hindle System **
Head pipe dia at the Flange is (1 1/2") {38 mm}
Head pipe dia from ?? below the Flange, flares to {approx. 1 23/32"}) {44 mm}
Exhaust port dia (x1) is approx. (2 1/4") {57 mm}
No Catalytic converter.

If you can, get me the distance (marked ??) and I'll add that information to my old discussion.
Looking at your photo's it looks like it flares to the 44 mm at about 8" below the flange.
That's much different than the other pipes that increase in head pipe size.
(For clarity) I'll probably reword that information to read something like this on all the Headers;
At approx. ??" from the head, the Head pipe dia. increases from (1 1/2") {38 mm} to (1 23/32") {44 mm}.
Ride safe, Ted

TwoTones, were you able to find out the information?
I havent pulled fairing off to measure yet it looks to be about 6in to taper, but havent officially measured
