    Which aftermarket exhaust sits closest to frame?

    I've got an 82 GS1100GK with a vance and heins 4 into 1. I can fit my hand between the frame and the exhaust underneath the bike. I'm also a fat ****er, so I've been dragging my exhaust.
    I thought about getting a stock exhaust on ebay since they sit so close to the frame, but my carbs are already jetted for exhaust and pods.
    What exhaust do you recommend, and please feel free to post pics

    I'm not a fan of exhausts that hang lower either. Unfortunately most are like that. Marving makes a nice system that's got a flat collector but you have to order from overseas and they are not cheap.

          Is it a side-winder drag pipe you are dragging?

          Regardless, how about beefing up the suspension instead/as well.

            This is nice, will it fit though? https://www.ripplerockracers.com/pro...o-fit-1978-80/

            I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.

              Great idea and it's on the list, I'm trying to figure out how to beef up the suspension without making the ride any harder.
              Unfotunately, it's not a sidewinder, and I don't drag it on corners, but on dips.

                  will a gs1000 exhaust fit on a gs1100?

                    not sure if it's just camera angles, but this one seems to be flatter on the bottom
                    Ripple Rock Racers manufactures custom performance motorcycle exhausts and aluminum billet triples. More horsepower, less weight. For those that are serious about racing.

                      I beleive it should, I am not 100% positive but I think the difference is just bore between the 2 engines.
