    USPS man has been very kind to me...

    The USPS man has been very kind to me recently, but my credit card doesn't agree.

    I'll let the pics do the talking.

          Are the pipes for a 650 cylinder? Are they new or off ebay? I would like to get some for my 650

            Yep.. gs650 vance and hines 4-1. I spent months looking for a set. Finally got off them a bike on ebay.. The bike didn't sell, but i negotiated with the kid for the pipes. They weren't cheap, but i can't wait to open the 650's airways up.

              Those V&H 4 into 1s sound great - you'll be happy with the growl and the extra HP boost.

              What pipe did you have previously?

                  Stock 650 pipes.. It's almost impossible to find anything aftermarket for the gs650
