    4-2 or 4-1 SS kits or ready to go for gsx400f

    Hey guys.

    Im struggling to find any aftermarket exhausts for my 81 gsx400f. Whether it be in Kit form, or ready to go.

    I know some models had a 4-1 system stock... some 4-2. Im not too fussed which i can find, but would love a raw SS (or titanium? :P ) kit or ready system.

    Would really like to upgrade because it feels like they used 1/4" thick steel on the stock unit... soo heavy!

    Does anyone have any leads, I havent had any luck

    cheers!

    Many thanks

    Hi nikosg, Don't know anything about your model or what exhausts might be available. If it is like the rest of the 4 cylinder line, you are probably going to have to find a custom built system. You might want to check with pete, also an oz member here, he had a very nice system made up for his 450 twin. Ray

      You can certainly ask Tranzac who did mine, but unless he has a jig ready to go he'll need your bike for a few weeks to get it done which could be a bit difficult given your location.

      Otherwise if you have a good exhaust shop near you give them a bell... my pipes were just under $800 which was about half the price I expected...

          No worries mate... I'm sure you'll have a choice of good exhaust shops given where you are...

          You can then have the satisfaction of knowing you have a very unique bike too

                    They're a good make. I've got a 4-1 Racing on one S and had one on my 1100. They weigh next to nothing, the finish is good and they make a decent noise (with the baffle in - they're a little loud without......).

                      Do they obstruct the sump/oil filter accessibility ?? that s a deal breaker for me i think.

                      thanks for the info.
