    Possible Bassani exhaust source; Who's interested?

    I've come across a guy who evidently has the equipment to make Bassani exhausts. Haven't contacted him yet, but have been referred to him by two different guys who have been in the racing circles forever. Wanted to gauge potential interest from those on the site before I give the guy a call. Don't know if he'd even be willing to do it, but I figured if a decent group would be interested in purchasing (as long as it's cost prohibitive of course) it might make it worth his time and effort. If you're interested let me know.

    I'm in for at LEAST one, maybe two! If the cost isn't crazy anyway. Ray.

        Well hell. Called the guy and he's now too busy with a supercross team and doesn't have the time to make any exhausts. Crap. Sorry to get hopes up.

            Hold on to his number, and pester him when it starts getting cold out or the economy tanks again....

                  +1 on the one two or three, depends on how many pipeless GSes I have at the time.

                      I'd like to see what they'd look like first. I've only seen them for v-twin cruisers on motorcycles. Nice quality, but I lived in Missouri for a while so - show me!

                        Fill me in

                        I know the name, but what is the deal with them?

                          My thoughts exactly...anyone have a pic of one?

                            Bassani made sweet, serious superbike pipes back in the '80s.
                            Smooth bends, large diameter collectors, no centerstand or oil-drain access.
                            Huge, barky baffles. AFAIK, all of them were Kal-Gard flat black finish.
                            Rare as hen's teeth these days.

                            I believe they are still in business, but focused on the V-8 performance market now.

                              Bassani exhausts were kown for quality and a great sound. Salty Monk has one on one of his bike I believe. From what I can tell we could probably get 10+ orders pretty easily. I'll give him a call around November.
