I have a Z-Technik Ti exhaust "Y" pipe & muffler , does anyone know if the "lowering" elbow [for a full sized left bag] is still available ? & where I might find one ? also need the muffler & pipe retaining springs. Must have lost the small parts in a recent garage cleaning ...
...I have contacted Z-Technik...but they did not reply ? I tried Beemer Boneyard as well but they had no more.........TIA, Ron

Unobtainium.
So, I looked for 18+ months for that lowering kit. Called ZTechnik (their fabricator was Italian firm specializing in Ti parts), and of course Beemer Boneyard, who quickly resold the discounted R1150 parts purchased as close-out.
Finally won the lotto via eBay, found the kit "NIB" for cheap. I rub that little titanium elbow every ride for good luck.
The springs and silicon tube cover hardware can be sourced elsewhere: standard parts for aftermarket exhausts like Akro.

I got a stainless steel lowering bend and muffler bracket fabricated at the local custom exhaust shop, cost me £40 which is about $60.

Thanks...
That is likely my next step, just thought I'd ask around first.
