    PS...Little half moon holding tip:: Put them in the slot on the pipes and wrap with a piece of masking tape. This hold them in and frees up your hands to fit the ends into the head without the pesky bastids always falling out .

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      No 4 into 1 exhaust installed on GS series from factory. You have an aftermarket pipe and don't need the split flanges.

              What Frank said..AND, take a piece of wire and stick in the hole and mark the depth. Compare that to the bolts to see if the PO had switched out hardware. If those bolts are too long and you run them to the bottom of the holes you can puncture thru the oil galleys that are right behind the holes in the head..then your really up chits creek. Check them and stay a MM or 2 shorter than max depth so you dont slam them thru the case. Just be sure you have right hardware is all Im saying.
