I know this was brought up before,but cant find it in old threads.Which V&H pro stock pipe will fit a stock chassis GS 1100.One is the Kosman type other is the Trac chassis.Oh ya,does Vance & Hines make these for Suzuki's anymore ?I know the Kaw one is still listed with Pingel.thanks, Steve

Dennis Kirk doesnt list the pro stock pipe,the pro pipe and the "pco" pipe are readily available thru most parts distributors.The pro stock has the spaghetti header that coils infront of the engine.I found them at Orient Express,but not sure which one will work on stock chassis.

The Vance & Hines street version drag pipe will work with a stock chassis. You may have clearance issues at the front fender and the rear brake pedal may have to be modified. The all out race pipe will hit the front fender and need work at the rear brake pedal. Both pipes will require you make a rear hanger.

Ive used the pro and pco pipes on a bunch of GS's,all have 17" GSXR front wheels so the clearance problem is a non issue.Also the stock pegs,brake assembly,and shifter arrangement get tossed.Two of the origional peg bracket holes are perfect for drag pegs,and the rear pipe mount just needs an offset bracket and spacer to bolt up to another existing hole.I found the thread I was looking for on DB website,apparently either the Trac or Kosman will work on stock GS chassis and because of the spider headpipe actually give more room between front wheel than the other style pipes...RR
 
I had both pipes on my 1150 with stock pegs and just bent the rear brake lever to clear. Also had to cut away some of the front fender. My bike was lowered quite a bit...The picture is after I raked the frame about 6 degrees if I recall correctly.

The nozzles were in the head..I had a string of injuries and surgeries. Didnt work for nearly 2 years. Needed the cash. Sold the bike among other neat stuff I had. Both the cash and the bike are gone and I'm still having surgeries. Having another one July 5th!

Check out Star Racing. I bought a full system recently (for another bike) that was practically the price of a slip on at other places. It arrived to my door in record time, too.
