What's your choice for exhaust??? (sound/power...)

South East Rocket · November 02, 2003, 03:26:21 PM

I know that we got Yosh and Vince & Hines... But what else do we have???

Any websites where I can see all my options?

Cobra makes a sweet slip on in 2 nearly-identical styles.

F1R has no tail, just a hole at the end of the can
F1S has the little snout.

Both have a very nice sound, are probably more free-flowing than stock, eay install, and should run around 140 bucks. Try motorcycle accessory warehouse.

i got a jardine exhaust for my gs from linh (on the board) I am yet to install it, i got it thursday.

Oh by the way laser exhausts are out there, jen on the board has one.

Remus i think makes one too.

I like the Hindle I picked up from a lister. 3 lbs. lighter than the Yosh, nice sound, and the performance is similar.

Of course they don't make either the Yosh or the Hindle anymore.

So who has what? And what kind of feedback can I get!!!!

-Exhaust
-Jet Kit
-Sprocket
-Progressive Springs
-I will also powder coat my rims

What do you think and what would you buy???

pantablo · November 03, 2003, 09:12:14 AM

Why powder coat the rims?

btw- I just had that priced out and was shocked at the $125/wheel price! Luckily, when I opened the bos with my gsxr rear wheel it was already silver! Woohooo.

Does anyone have a D&D muffler, they are a manufacture in Ft. worth Texas. I saw one on a Duc that someone on the board has, I am just curious if anyone has one installed on a GS. I am going to find out in a couple weeks if they make one for the GS and the prices just in case.

A riding bro of mine has a D&D on his very modded-up Ninja 250...and that exhaust sounds great, and much bigger than it really is. Good product.

XfitsofrageX · November 03, 2003, 02:10:27 PM

To my knowledge they don't make a D&D for the gs 500. From what I have heard you don't want one anyhow. They have a very bad reputation for poor build quality and cheap materials. They are loud though. So if you want a very loud piece of crap exhasut, buy D&D.

Bob's V&H full system with SS2R can sounded great (a newer system that's a lot freer breathing and doesn't rust when you breathe on it), though I don't think I'd spend the bucks at least to buy it new (he got a deal iirc).

South East Rocket · November 04, 2003, 02:07:37 PM

Pablo,

I'm getting my rims powder coated because they used to be white, I sand blasted them then painted them black. The paint isn't holding up too good.
The quote I got all hovered around $60/rim

J-Lo · November 04, 2003, 07:25:25 PM

DAMN, that Hindle was loud, but I'm glad that KevinC likes it. It was pretty, but loud.

QuoteOh by the way laser exhausts are out there, jen on the board has one.

I don't know if I would recommend them though. It helps in terms of some power and looks, but when I got the dyno back, they told me it made it worse than if I would have had a stock can on.

I got a jet kit installed - that's where the dyno came from.

glenn9171 · November 05, 2003, 06:26:22 PM

So your bike made less than the stock 39-40 HP with a jet kit and Laser exhaust?

Jen · November 06, 2003, 07:13:59 PM

It's just a little bit better, at 43.2 (RO) and 48.7 (AG). I don't know what the difference between the two is though. Maybe someone else can help me. I have two sheets from my dyno.
