SC Project Exhaust SC1-S carbon for Z900 (2020) without heat carbon protector
SC Project SC1-S Carbon Exhaust for Kawasaki Z900 (2020) – Without Heat Protector
The Kawasaki Z900 (2020) is known for its aggressive styling, raw power, and everyday rideability. With its 948cc inline-four engine and lightweight chassis, the Z900 delivers an exhilarating blend of street performance and smooth, manageable power. But for riders looking to enhance the bike’s presence, performance, and personality, the SC Project SC1-S Carbon Exhaust offers a premium upgrade—delivering sharper sound, reduced weight, and a bold new look.
This version of the SC1-S comes without the carbon heat protector, offering a cleaner, more minimalist profile that emphasizes the raw styling of your Z900.
Lightweight Carbon Construction
The SC1-S Carbon exhaust is crafted from high-quality aerospace-grade carbon fiber, making it significantly lighter than the stock exhaust. By shedding excess weight—especially at the rear—it improves the bike’s handling and overall agility. Whether you’re carving through twisty mountain roads or navigating tight urban streets, the reduced weight makes the Z900 feel more responsive and flickable.
Carbon fiber doesn’t just reduce mass—it also provides durability and heat resistance in demanding conditions. The SC1-S’s carbon weave is designed to withstand extreme temperatures and long-term use, while its matte finish adds a stealthy, high-performance touch to your ride.
Pure, Aggressive Sound
Riders who install the SC1-S Carbon will notice one thing immediately: the sound. The exhaust delivers a deep, throaty growl at idle, transitioning to an aggressive, sharp roar under acceleration. Unlike the relatively tame stock system, the SC1-S gives your Z900 a voice that matches its aggressive styling and performance.
This sound isn’t just loud for the sake of being loud—it’s engineered for a clean, race-inspired tone with no unwanted drone. The exhaust note is refined, exciting, and unmistakably sporty. It enhances every twist of the throttle and makes the riding experience far more visceral and satisfying.
Performance Benefits
The SC1-S Carbon is not just about sound and looks—it’s also designed to improve engine efficiency and responsiveness. Its free-flowing design reduces backpressure, allowing exhaust gases to exit more efficiently. This helps the engine breathe better and respond more quickly to throttle inputs.
Riders will feel a noticeable improvement in throttle response and a smoother, more linear power delivery throughout the rev range. While peak horsepower gains may vary, the overall ride becomes more engaging and responsive—ideal for spirited riding on twisty roads or for pushing the pace on track days.
Sleek, Compact Design
The compact shape and clean lines of the SC1-S Carbon make it a perfect fit for the muscular profile of the Z900. Without the additional bulk of a heat shield, the exhaust maintains a minimalist, stripped-down aesthetic that enhances the aggressive styling of the bike.
The short, tapered silencer keeps the rear end clean and purposeful, while the carbon fiber finish adds a subtle touch of motorsport attitude. The laser-etched SC-Project logo adds authenticity and highlights the exhaust’s Italian racing heritage.
Plug-and-Play Installation
This exhaust is designed specifically for the Kawasaki Z900 (2020) and mounts directly to the stock exhaust system without the need for cutting, welding, or remapping. Everything bolts up seamlessly, using the original mounting points.
Installation is simple enough for home mechanics using basic tools, but can also be done professionally in under an hour. Once installed, you’ll immediately notice the visual transformation, weight savings, and upgraded sound profile.
Ideal for Riders Who Want More
If you’re looking to give your Z900 a more aggressive edge without compromising reliability or everyday rideability, the SC Project SC1-S Carbon (without heat protector) is the perfect solution. It’s ideal for riders who:
-
Want a lightweight, high-performance exhaust with premium materials
