GS 1000 Exhaust

[rputney01]

Is there any reasoni that a 4-1 pipe made to fit a 1980 1000G wouldn't work on a "79 "S"? Marshall Deeptone makes a chrome exhaust that is supposed to sound and look great. I just want to make sure that it will mount properly on the rear of the bike.

Thanks.

I dont have any idea about the fitment of the pipes in which you're referring to. But I would like to know if you plan to sell a factory exhaust system?
If so I would be very interested!

Not sure about the gs1000g but when I tried an exhaust from my gs1000e on my gs850 it went nowhere near either at the headers or the back of the frame. If the 1000G frame is the same as the 850 then I doubt the exhaust would fit.

The front is no problem, since it's the same top end

The rear is questionable

If your check the euro site, they have one for a GS 1000 E, so I'm guessing the G mount is different

Why don't you email them and find out?

No, I'm just looking to replace an old Kerker. Sorry.

I did, we'll see what they say. Do you have the link for the Euro site? I can't seem to find it.

Thanks.

I had a 1000G with stock 1000E pipes on it... then swapped them for a 4:1 from Vance & Hines made for a 1000E.

The angle at the head is slightly different so the 1000E pipes sat down a bit further from the frame (holding the centre stand & sidestand off their stops a half inch or so). Also needed a link to join the mounting points at the back, was about 2" long.

The V&H fit fine but I needed a linking piece for it at the back again.

I don't know if this is the one I found before, but here's the 79 E
