Title: Motad Nexxus Exhaust
Post by: ericjmense on September 03, 2004, 08:47:42 AM
I recently bent up my header pipes going off of a cub so I was going to replace them with an aftermarket system.   I have a friend with a Vance and Hines system and I like it but I have found another system on the net I know nothing about.  I just wondered if anyone had a Motad Nexus Exhaust on their gs500 or if they know anything about them.  Is it a good system or not.

                                      Thanks Eric

A google search turned this up ;)

It looks like a good looking pipe to me.  I'm guessing they are based in the UK from their website address

I have personally never heard of it.  Maybe our friends across the pond can lend a helping hand?  :mrgreen:

I've got one.  

Sounds good, quality of the finish is great.  Mine has stood up to the british winter with all the road salt etc great.  The only marks on it are from when itg was dropped, and you can't expect any pipe to keep it's finish where it's been dragged along the floor!

It gives the bike a deeper note than the original, but I believe you have to replace the whole system, not just the can.  Still, I don't think this will be wearing out anytime soon....

Maybe another of my countrymen can give a more definitive answer knowing what they GS standard can sounds like???

Thanks for the help but I guess what I really want to know is if the Motad Nexus Exhaust has better preformance then the Vance and Hines system
