HELP! Empty vintage Yoshi muffler

[isleoman]

Length of the stock Yosh baffle is 9.125"

Front end that slips over the mid pipe (I said slips over the collar earlier and that's not correct. The can slips over collar, the baffle slips over the mid pipe) 2.37" o.d. / 2.25 i.d.

The rear part of the baffle that is held by the Allen bolt is 2.5" o.d. and the center exhaust outlet pipe is 1.39" i.d.

The FZR pipes have smaller exhaust outlet dia. (1.15") but same O.D., Posplayr's experience is they will still work in the 1100.

Hi,
The end cap-cannister assy has been machined.It should have the yoshimura name on the endcap casting.
The baffle connect to your number 3 and is he'll. .d in place when you put the cannister back on.
I will try to take a picture of the endcap.

. I was wondering as I had never seen that style . probably the best thing to so is find another can ;it does not have to be the greatest then cut off and weld on a new end cap;else find a nozzle style end cap to replace

The baffle should be eazy to replace

Your end cap should look like this
the opening is 1.5inches

Sorry, this is a little off topic, but are the Marzocchi's on the rear of the bike on the correct way?
I am about to put a set on my gs1000 and i assumed that they went on the other way?

If they are configured like the usual GS shocks (top eye to bottom clevis), they will only go on as pictured. On some other bikes, with eye/eye fittings, and matching shocks, they can be used 'right side up'.

Thanks,
I was wondering what was going on.
Sorry about the off topic question again.

I have the Yoshi 4-1 vintage exhaust but the yoshi muffler is an empty can. How do I replace the missing pieces OR find a vintage Yoshimura can that fits this exhaust? Any

Check this out....maybe the baffle can be used on yours (may need length modded?)...or the entire can, but it shows some dents. I'd ask and make sure it isn't empty too, though.

That is disgusting

[doctorgonzo]

I have that exact can (looks like the YZ), still looking for the rest of an exhaust so might part with it. Almost decided I am gonna go with a V&H pro pipe.

What dont like right hand turns?

I agree, but if he can use the baffle with his existing can, it might be fine, esp. at that price....as I understand it, he's primarily looking for one for his empty Yosh.

Ha!
It's more at this stage, with the amount of green going in the engine, gonna have to put off some "wants" in other areas and go for "good enough" for a little while. Not set on a pro pipe, but likely some kind of V&H just for the cost factor. May try and do a custom pipe using the Yosh can if I can find a set of headers that don't break the bank, which I have had no luck at so far. As the cost for the engine work/parts goes over $2000 and counting I'm getting a little sticker shock.
