Hey guys.  Im new to the board.  New to the bike actually.  I bought it for my girlfriend as a starter but must admit I love it as much as my speed triple.  Anyway Im looking at doing the exhaust and cant find anything for an 89.  Im thinking I might have to butcher a can from something else.  Any help would be appreciated.

Vance & Hines and Jardine make exhausts for the GS  :thumb:

there are a TON of posts on here about exhausts.. Check out the Search feature and type in exhaust  :cheers:

Personally I think an exhaust on the GS is a waste of $$$.... It just ends up sounding like an ATV and does nearly nothing for performance  :thumb:

I checked out several clips on YouTube of GSs with Yoshs and was appalled, they sounded like crap...   :cookoo:  Why?!? Do they really sound like this on a GS?

This was okay but the guy didn't rev it enough

This sounded crummy, but maybe he had a lousy camera.

I thought the best was the BSM Vampire, but I guess it's a personal taste thing.

I liked the Vance & Hines too.

I like the Scorpion look, can't find one to listen to.

But for that much money for aftermarket???!!!   :o

I'll stay stock until something shows up used that will fit and I can grab.
