Title: Custom (kinda) exhuast.... your thoughts
Post by: KYGS500E on May 03, 2006, 05:28:21 AM
I'm wondering whether it would work to mount custom brackets under the gs and hang a buell blast exhaust canister UNDER the bike as upposed to the side like ours are.... if you can't tell by my last post... i've been fixated on buells this week.... any thoughts???

I am going for the same deal. I posted this question earlier, Albiet a slightly different approach.----http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=25596.0

will the beull exhaust be short enough to fit under the engine? Post a pic if you got one.

I think what we came up with was a rejett will be required because the exhausts tubes will be shorter causing the bike to run leaner.

interesting... glad to hear someone else has considered it... i'll get pics up if i get around to doing it (who knows) but the idea is really cool... the buell blast is a pretty short bike altogether... I would venture to guess it would fit... but I'll measure my friends to check

Hah, I was just having this conversation with Pastrami last night. I was thinking of using an exhuast like the one on the Ninja 650R.. I think it's hot... Of course, I need to get a bike first!
