Need info on Exhaust

Got a 2007 with a delkevic exhaust changing it back to stock 2004 exhaust but its not got the o2 sensor on the exhaust so will it be ok to install the 2004 exhaust on the 2007 without any problems .

I can't say for sure whether the exhausts are compatible but you might want to check the laws on 02 Sensors. An MOT station might be expecting to find a sensor. The wiring would still be there but no sensor. Just a thought...

I'm sure somebody here will know whether the exhaust will fit OK.

Its got the same part number for the exhaust for 2004 and the 2007 .

My 2002-2004 parts catalogue has two numbers but there is no sign of a sensor in the diagram.

18310-MCT-010

18310-MCT-950

Try going David Silver Spares website and put the numbers in. The description may say which is which and if it's relevant to your SW?

I think a bigger issue will be the bike's behaviour if the O2 sensor is not reinstated in the exhaust. The ECU is using this to adjust the fuel injection. Not sure about the Swing but it is not uncommon on motorcycles fitted with performance exhausts to eliminate that sensor, and in that case a widget is plugged into the loom in its place to avoid fault codes being generated. The widget normally just contains a suitable resistor to mimic the O2 sensor.

It would not be a big job for a muffler repair business to weld on a socket so you can refit the O2 sensor onto the 04 exhaust.

2008 onwards Silver Wings are fitted with an O2 sensor in the exhaust, the earlier and less fuel efficient FJS models just a bog standard exhaust.

Thanks for the info , my son is going to cut the socket of the delkevic and weld it on to the 2004 exhaust .

I loved the Delkelvic exhaust I had on my Silverwing lovely throaty sound but not intrusive.

stock exhaust on the Forza.

Don't cut old exhaust, just buy a O/2 bung and drill, weld it in a much cleaner install. Something like this and not expensive
 
Sell Delkevic  and make a few bucks.

Bike will run fine with no O/2 but check engine light will be on forever. Honda PGMFI will still function but I'm sure fuel mileage will be lower.
