Alternate exhaust question

[Mercaholic]

I'm removing the Yosh pipe on my '83 GS1100ES because it really is robbing me of the bike's torque.

Anyway, can someone suggest a replacement four into one system that isn't too noisy?

I understand that the MAC system is good but of cheap quality.

Robbing you of the bike's torque??? I have a Yosh on my 1100ES, and im not feeling robbed of anything! You should keep your Yosh, and find a set of BS36SS carburetors (1150carbs) get some slotted sprockets, and degree your stock cams, or find a set of 1150 cams. Then you can move the torque where you want it. That pipe is designed to BREATHE.

On the other hand, if you want more midrange torque..buy a Vance and Hines Canister pipe, or a meg really. You'll lose all your top end rush, but the midrange will feel boosted. Frankly, a Mac is worse IMO for flow than the STOCK system, which actually flow pretty well, they're just so damn heavy..
