ZX7R Cans Fit...

...with some slight modification
not bad for £10
mounting bolts for zxr 400 cans are 72mm centre to centre, this zx7r one was 75mm centre to centre, so you need to remove ~2mm of metal from your mounting plate, i have sandy bike spares downpipes that come with a removeable flange (so you can fit slip on cans), 15minutes work with a drill and i opened the mounting holes out just fine, now i have a free flowing can that sounds excellent
plus its proper carbon fiber and titanium, the can and hanging strap weigh 1.525kg, the old can alone is well over 4.0kg - it maxed out my scales at 3.6kg so its heavier than that, ive got a set of scales for weighing luggage at home, ill try it on that next along with its hanging bracket...
EDIT - old zxr400 can + hanging bracket = 4.55kg! so ive saved 3kg!
