    '83 Header Compatibility

    Damn it's hard finding headers that fit!!! I'm restoring my '83 GS750ES this winter and I'm having a hard time finding headers and muffler that is either in great shape and stock, or a similar looking compatible version. I want to keep the 4-2 system... I just like the look! Thanks!

    Laser exhaust still makes a 4into 1 and also a stock looking exhaust You just have to look under GSX750ES Motad still makes a 4into1 you have to look under the GSX750ES also for them. 86-90 Oil cooled GSXR Headers will work also.
    Hope that helps.

      Check out www.mivv.it re replacement silencers (sorry mufflers) , I've seen them fitted to a few bikes and they seem reasonable quality

        I like the Laser alot. Have you heard of any issues accessing the oil filter or plug? I couldn't find a black version.. The Motad looks very elegant with the silver silencer.. But at over $525, it's too pricey.

          No probs getting to the oil filter I can reach in there. I posted a pic once of how wide it was.

            Can you show me a picture of your bike with the new headers? Since my engine is mostly black, I REALLY want to get black headers. Even with the increase in price, I may go with the Motad... Anyone experienced with the Motad? I'm also curious about the oil filter/plug access issues...

              Do you want a recent pic. If you Email Laser , I bet they could do one in black for you. They have always been good to me. I have used there exhaust on many bikes...Always a little more money but they have lasted.
              Performance is good to excellent.
              I didn't get the Motad because The two exhaust I had before only lasted about 20thousand miles (5years) Then they got pin holes in the header pipes....It rains a lot in Oregon.

                I donn't know about on the 750 but I've had both the Motad Neta system and a Stainles Laser 4 into 1 system on an 1100 katana sz .
                The motad gives full access to the oil filter and drain plug and retains the centre stand.
                The Laser system means you lose the centre stand , access to the oil drain plug is fine but it is a royal pain to change the filter. The cover plate comes off but the filter doesn't fit past the headers meaning that you have to loosen off the retaining bolts in the head and pull the headers forward.
                If you can get a Black Chrome and Silver end can NETA I would go for that.

                    Yeah, I eMailed them today and they haven't responded! Gosh darn it... Labor Day and everyone takes the day off

                    If they can do the headers in black, that would partially solve my issue.. I'd still love the 4 into 2 though....

                      I got an eMail from Motad this morning on their setup... It's NICE.. It could totally look cool on my '83 GS750ES. It has a biggish muffler which would give it that muscle-bike look. A little more expensive, but MAY be worth it. The other's I've been looking at have a too-generic look about them.

                      Anyone with experience with the Motad system? Any issues with accessing the oil filter/plug?
