    What Would It Take to Retrofit an Early 70's CB750 4:1 Exhaust to a 1980 GS850?

    There's a decent 4:1 aftermarket exhaust for a CB750 on CL....is it a crazy idea to even consider fitting it to a 1980 GS850? Has anyone ever done it? What's involved?

    '79 GS750 - 4th and current ride...first since 1983
    '73 CB350 - 1st ride
    '76 GT750 - 2nd ride - the "water buffalo" - sold to buy an engagement ring
    '79 RD400F Daytona Special - 3rd ride, the last of the street legal US 2-strokes - sold to buy a house

    Stuff I've done to my bike:dancing: 1100E front end with new Sonic springs, 1100E swing arm conversion with new Progressive shocks installed, 530 sprockets/chain conversion, new SS brake lines, new brake pads. New SS fasteners through out. Rebuilt carbs, new EBC clutch springs and horn installed. New paint. Motor runs strong.

        Kawasaki and some later model GSXR exhaust systems can be made to fit if you are resourceful.

        One example here...
