gs750 exhaust

[Guest]

I have a 1979 gs750 with just head pipes. I need an exhaust system I found one for an 80 to 82 gs750. Would this work with minimal work. And also what other exhaust will work I'm not wanting to spend a lot because it is a bobber and I am going to probably wrap the exhaust. Thanks for all of your help

The 80+ exhausts are made for the taller engines. I have a MAC 1980+ GS700/750/1000/1100 exhaust on mine and it hangs a bit lower, but bolts up fine. If you have a bobber, a standard 4 into 1 isn't going to be the good ticket for you if your bike is any lower than stock ride height. MAC and I think Jardine (or some other company) make slip on muffler setups for the stock head pipes after you cut the muffler sections off of them. This will give you the maximum ground clearance and a better sound and lighter muffler. 4 into 1 exhausts in general (except for the $500+ Italian imported Marvings) hang lower and cause some ground clearance issues on steep approaches and speedbumps unless you put much stiffer springs and shocks in your bike.

MAC makes basically the same thing minus the headpipes, you cut your stock system's mufflers and just clamp that type of setup onto it. Jardine was bought by Supertrapp and I don't think Supertrapp offers any Suzuki stuff pre-86 according to their website.
