    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.

I need confirmation that a newer GS500 exhaust will bolt up to my '83 GS450E. I read about how they are essentially the same motor minus the larger bore. I realize I will need to modify how the muffler hangs, but I just want to know if the headers will bolt up to the GS450E.
thanks
 
i may be wrong on this, but doesn't the GS500 have four cylinders and therefore 4 exhaust pipes? our bikes only have two so it wouldn't work out.
i am absolutely sure that the GS550 has four cylinders...
 
The GS500 pipes WILL fit on the GS400 thru 500 twins. Ray.


SWEET!!!! I know where there is a perfect condition V&H full exhaust off of a Gs500 around here for $50. I think im gonna snag that ASAP!!! YAY!!!
 
hmmm... Ridgefield, Wa huh? where's you find that SWEET DEAL...? :-D let us know how it works out once installed, if you pick it up!
 
um.. talk to OldschoolOrange about this one. I'm pretty sure you are in for a surprise. the distance between the exhaust ports is different.
