    They are a pretty decent pipe though I was never impressed with the quality of the chrome on the originals. You see loads of real rusty ones around.
    I didn't see one listed for the 750? only the 1000. I would really like to find a black one.

        It would be nice if there were a few more options for these bikes. I really like the looks of the Harris, would really like to locate one in the black chrome.

          I did here back from the guy on this, here is the email he sent me regarding it not fitting, sounds like the header is the issue.

          hi,
          sorry just back from work,
          if your in the states it most likely be too expensive to ship over.
          i have a gsx750ed 1984,the headers are a fraction too big to fit my head ( it would take a small bit of work) the headers are slightly too long, pushing the system down too much for my liking. as i said i could make it fit but , time and effort are in short supply at the moment, i would rather just get something that fits straight away.
          cheers b

            I think the exhaust port angle on the GSX head is different to the GS head, this causes some header junctions to kick up into the sump and make it difficult to fit GSX headers to a GS. Not sure about this issue with Harris systems.

              I just got a Marshall 4-1 for my 650G. All four downtubes are separate. They are installed into the collector at the bottom. So maybe take a look at laserexhaust.com and see if they have an option.

              This Marshall is da bomb.

                  The saying "you get what you pay for" does apply to exhaust. MAC offers an economical pipe unburdend by engineering or quality. They use the same baffle in all their systems, sounds crappy on anything.

                  Normally I would not go to a 4-1 but I got a great deal from a great GSR member on this pipe and the video he sent me of the same system on his bike sealed it for me. Luv that sound!

                      Eh I deleted it a while ago. The marshall has a nice throaty hum at idle and a good rasp when you get on it. The collector is offset enough to get the oil out without dropping the pipe and the chrome is miles thick. Great welds too.
