    Would 1978 GS750 Exhaust fit a 1978 GS550?

    Title says it all. I've been looking for new 4-2 exhaust for awhile now and I might have found a new set on Bikebandit for around $230 by Sito, but the exhaust I found is for a GS750 however it is the same year as my GS550 and I was wondering if the exhaust would fit my 550?

    Thanks for any feedback.
    Love this site!

      I'm pretty sure that system is off an L model. It will fit on a standard 550, or an E, but you will have to slot the muffler hanger bolt holes and bend the centerstand tang to clear the muffler. My 550E has the same mufflers and that's what I had to do.

      The L series muffler has a pretty distinctive rumble sound and are louder than the regular mufflers at low rpm. Personally, I don't like the way they sound and have been looking for some stock mufflers for my 550. To each their own I suppose.

          Thanks for the ebay link, will have to see if can get these by the end of the auction. If not, do you think a 750 exhaust would it a 550?
