Good exhaust for a gs550

[Wicked 550]

I have a 1980 gs550 and it has the 4 to 1 Mac on it that I'm not a fan of really. I was wondering what exhaust system are good for this bike, kind of what so
Something with a little more throat but still keep the back pressure.

Marving and Marshall make pipes for the 550's still. Marving is on Vacation for the entire month of August. So if you oder a pipe now, you won't have it until Oct........
SO, at this time, MAC and Marshall are the only choices, if you want something soon. The Marving 4 into 1 race system is AWESOME though !!! I will order one for mine over the winter months ....

Gotgixers, would you please provide a link to the Marshall pipes you are talking about? I had done a lot of searching over the last couple of years and found that only MAC provides pipes for the 550s

I've got a Marshall on my GSX750 and a Marving Race on one of my GS1000Ss. The Marshall is ok, the Marving is top drawer.

Thanks HH, I'd looked at the laser-exhausts site earlier but didn't find anything for the 550 so maybe I missed it. The Marving site says they do but I'm concerned on the fit since it's also saying the newer 500. I'll have to email them and see but it would still be another year or two for mine.

Hope you can find one for yourself there Wicked

The Marving site says they do but I'm concerned on the fit since it's also saying the newer 500.

It's maybe not the newer 500 (the twin) that you are thinking of - some European countries (not us) got the GS550 4 cylinder as a 500/4 to fit tax laws. The bike is identical apart from a smaller cylinder bore and side panel badges.

The Marving will fit a 550/4 and the pipe is in current production. So will the Marshall, though I have heard they are dropping some bikes from their range.

I'm not sure about the fitting on a 550T or L though; that may need a bracket modification for the silencer.
