Ever since the 1K came out, my first thought was "will that dual exhaust fit my 850!?" Well the answer is yes. I put a stock 1k dual exhaust on my 13 850. Not the easiest project but not very hard either. Parts needed are obviously the 2 cans and cross-pipe, left side hanger with grommets, and the 1k CVT outlet pipe. There are a bunch of extra heat shields that the 1k gets that the 850 doesn't have but I made my own out of reflective dynamat as the heat shields would have added well over $120 to the swap. Newer 850's the swap is a little easier since the frame is already drilled for the second mount. On my 13 I had to drill a couple holes to mount the left hanger. You also need the 1K CVT outlet because the 850 outlet goes in exactly the path of the exhaust cross-pipe. Overall, I'm very happy with the swap. Sounds nice but don't really feel anything on the butt dyno. Just love the way it looks.

It probably hurt performance from what ive read and seen. Im sure there is a reason that guys that race them run single exhaust on the 1000's. I know just swapping to my big gun i lost a little low end grunt but not enough to bother me
