    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

'82 GS750 Exhaust Question

Other than the over done V&H 4 into 1, are there any other good exhaust mods for the GS750 without losing much performance or gas mileage?
 
Not sure what's available for your bike. Might be a Jardine, or an old kerker kicking around somewhere, also weird stuff like x-Pipes and sidewinders, but your choices are probably going to be OEM or V&H if that.
 
That's all that is available huh? Has anyone tried to modify the stock exhaust to give it a little better sound? Or is this a lost cause and I should stick with the stock pipes?
 
Search around, you might find something. I mean it's a 25 year old bike, that wasn't the most popular model (I don't think). We're lucky to even still have V&H available for bikes this old. I don't mean to imply this is definitive, there may be something I don't know about because I have a different bike. Anything you do (different exhaust, drilling out the baffles, etc..) is going to mean re-jetting the carbs.

I would add, that putting a V&H 4 into 1 on mine transformed it into a completely different bike. I haven't been able to put a ton of miles on it since because of different issues, but dropping that 35 pounds or so, totally changed the handling (for the better) and made a noticeable difference in acceleration (also for the better).
 
I have heard great things about the 4-1 (my brother-in-law has one on his Kawasaki 750), I'm just not a big fan of the look or the sound of them so I'm looking for something a little different.

I do appreciate the help though, anybody else that has some different ideas too please let me know.
