    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.

IMG_0759.jpg I have this header that came with the my suzuki gs550/675cc top end not sure what it came off of I remember the previous owner talking about how it was from a Honda. It looks like a good header but it doesn't have a muffler i was thinking about installing a slip on muffler that's like a foot long and save me some money (ifitsevenworthit) , then again I am thinking buying a MAC header/muffler. What do you people of knowledge recommend in this scenario?
 
My bike thankfully still has its original exhaust, so I can't really help you. But this Honda 4 into 1 header, does it fit the Suzuki correctly? If so, then you could get a Harley take off muffler and give it a go. Remember that you need clearance for oil filter stuff change and centerstand and/or kickstand.
 
putting random pipes may cause random flat spots in the power spread or cause other jetting issues but it hasn't stopped plenty of people from doing it-you can buy cheap universal slip on mufflers on line with a little searching they'd just need to fit the OD/ID of the end of your header. Ive seen people cobble together short Cherry Bomb automotive mufflers onto headers too. all depends on what you will settle for. MAC pipes are not known to be great in terms of improved power over stock but they may make your life easier.
