All of the exhaust systems work. The question is do YOU like the looks???

Ha! Thats very true! I do dig the looks, I haven't seen them on very many bikes. It looks like theyve been scraping.

I'd guess Jardine from what I can see. Loud, but good looking. I have a set on my 350f. Mine combines 1/4 and 2/3 and has a small volume muffler that is integrated with the headers. The mufflers open to the rear of the bike.

yeah I just got a set like it. They are really rare for the 500-550 bikes... with the cross over 1&4 to one side and 2&3 to the other. HondaMan has said that they help give the bike noticeably more torque because of the timing of the cylinders.
