    open exhaust on gs750

    couldn't find the original thread, but I said as soon as I got the exhaust done I'd give an update.I put a 2inch straight pipe on each side, starting at the pegs where I cut the original mufflers off. Inside the pipes I put a set of universal baffles I got off ebay, less than $20 shipped. There 8inches long. With everything installed, it calmed the exhaust note considerably, but still louder than stock and very aggressive sounding. Also the bike idles again, and runs and pulls lots smoother. total investment, including shipping and getting it welded was $36.00. very pleased with the outcome. Hope to load new pics soon.

      Depending on how they mount, you might even find some long chrome turn-down extensions that will dress it up a bit,
      if that look appeals to you at all, that is.

        Was thinking about adding dome longer chrome down swept tips that would cover all of the exhaust modifications and look like just a couple pipes.

          I put 2 and 1/4 24in long slant cut straights on mine no baffles its loud and drounds out all the harleys I ride with. It sounds great. But I got $80 in mine. I made the mounts. I made then like slip-ons so I can change if I want.

                  The seat is comfy, just looks odd. Gonna re-redo it soon. I changed the fork oil since the pics, added a 1 inch spacer on top of the spring so it's a little taller in the front now. looks lots better.
