    Exhaust Question

    Will an aftermarket exhaust from a 82 Katana 1000 fit 79 GS1000S?

    Thanks

      It should fit the head but it won't bolt up in the back without modification in some way. Also, not sure about under engine clearance because there is so much variation between different pipes.

      To measure is to know.

              Most gs BB engines have the same height , so oil pan clearance is going to be the same. IIRC, You can check the v&h website for their drag pipe and it will fit either 16v 1100 or 8v 1000.

              agree on the rear, hanger location vary aLot between bike models.
