Mac Exhaust

[emjay]

Jama makes a 4:2 for the GS850. Hard to come by these days in the US though.

Right, because we know how high a demand Mac exhausts for GS650's are, right??

JAMA on a 650

It sounds so sweet, and midrange performance is definately better.

Too late. Already ordered the Mac. I'll try em next time. They aren't much more than the Macs.

I'm going to call bike bandit today. If the Mac hasn't shipped yet, I will cancel the order and try the Marshall.

[mlinder]

OK, cancelled mac order. Purchasing the Marshall now.

[mlinder]

Purchased!

I'm excited to see this exhaust.

It does look higher quality than the mac, and not much more money.

None of my friends here in the PNW have a Marshall, that I've seen, anyway.

Since the bike frame is actually a 550, and the top end of the engine is a 650, I ordered the 650 setup. I will probably have to fab mounts, but not an issue.

Will keep you updated.

PM when you get it, I can help with installation tips. There are some tricks to getting it on right.

I would recommend going up on the jet two sizes to 115 or 116. the bikes are jetted lean for emissions and with the pipe it will be leaner. I went to DJ 124 which is about a 116 in Suzuki and had no flat spots and it pulls right up to redline.

I will have to fab mounts anyway. It's going on a 550 frame.

Since intake is not stock, either, lots of jetting changes will be required.

At some point, I may try to fit EFI to it.. but thats for later.

Where did you get the Marshall from?

It looks like the muffler mounts low, like the OE, instead of upswept like my V&H 4-1. Might be just what I'm looking for to clear the bags

Ordered from http://laser-exhausts.com/

They are backordered right now. Mine will be delivered in 3 to 4 weeks.

Lemme know if you want to sell your V&H. GS850, right?

[850GT_Rider]

Yes - GS850G

In the interest of budget, might just get a muffler. I wrote to them with the inquiry.

I'll let you know!

Your budget may change with the sale of the V&H.

Was your grandpappy a horse trader by any chance?
