    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...

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.

Seeking advice with rebuilding carbs with this exhaust

I just bought this bike, and this is the exhaust it had on it. I doubt this is the original exhaust, so from your experiences, how should I treat this exhaust when it comes to rebuilding my carb?

Thank you in advance! I have read the P, P, P post, which is why I had questions about it!

I don't think the exhaust would have anything to do with rebuilding the carb, or carbs.
 
A pipe like that will affect jetting needs inside the carbs.

I strongly suggest adding some sort of small slip on muffler to those pipes. I've also seen some inserts that go inside the pipes. One way or another, add some back pressure, and knock down some of the noise.
 
Thought he said "rebuilding carbs", Yes, if tuning carbs what they ^^^^^ said.
 
I wouldn't really call that an exhaust, to be honest. Think of the bike as systems. you need an exhaust system, and need to match the carbs to that exhaust system. If you find out what was on there stock, you may be able to find something on EBAY that will get you on your way quicker.

It would probably help knowing the exact year, make, and model of the bike. :)
