I heard that bassani was making pipes again. I used to have a phone number of a guy in fla that knew them i will try and locate it. I still have an old one myself. I had an 83 1100e stock motor 36mm GSXR carbs, K&N's, cams set at 106. The kerker made 108hp on the dyno, the vance and hines made 112hp, the bassani made 116hp. The bassani has been on a 78gs1000, 82 katana, 83 1100e and my 841150es.

Hey Brad are those the CV type carbs
 
Thanks Brad

You combo sounds great. I hope to get the same results from my mods.

I got some 38mm GSXR 750 CV carbs, G4 cams that are going on a 13.5-1 1166 engine very soon.

hey brad;

Bassani has been making pipes for a long time unfortunatly only for automobiles and trucks. They also make pipes for harleys but last time i checked not for any other bikes.

They have a web site if you want to check its bassani exhaust.com.

I have used their pipes on all my gs bikes but only have one on my 83 katana1100 now. I always used the racing baffle as it made some serious hp. only problem was law enforcement could hear me coming for 3/4 of a mile. That used to be the big joke around town years ago when i was younger and dumber.
 
Hello guys
I had a good laugh at the thought of hearing you for 3/4 of a mile. I too have a Bassini on my 81 GS 1100E, I have but one ? how can I make it run quieter I have packed the baffle with glass but it does nothing to make it quieter. Any help will be much appreciated as I would love to use this pipe again.
Regards, Archie
 
hey archie anderson;

Its nice to know i wasn't the only one to have loud pipes. Bassani made two baffles for their pipes. One was a street baffle which restricted the pipe considerably the other was a racing baffle which is probably what you have. They didn't recomend this baffle for street use which i can see why. But being young at the time i didn't care.

About the only recourse is to see if anyone has a street baffle(which is rare)because like you found you can't put enough fiberglass around it to help.

Anyhoo when i was stopped one time for racing a vette the sheriff said his buddy who lived almost a mile off the road said he could hear me when i got on it. It was pretty quiet until around 5grand then you knew you had a bassani pipe and so did everyone else around.
