Honda CB550 exhaust
« on: May 31, 2013, 05:16:46 AM »
Hello
Im sure im in the came crowd as hundreds of other guys but-Is there a company making reproduction pipes for a 1974 cb550?
Or anyone have ideas where to look? I have a nice rider that I want to kkep the original looking exhaust on and my #1 and 4 pipes just look crappy :-\
Thanks,Doug

I used to see repro sets on eBay a couple years ago, but not any more. I don't think anybody is making the 550 pipes.

But I would check over at David Silver Spares. If anyone has some it would be him.

I have the same problem with those two pipes. It really sucks that there aren't any 4-4 exhausts available anymore  :'( Thank God MAC still makes us a 4-1 despite all the negative comments I see. Otherwise half the bikes would be off the road.

A recent eBay auction sold a set of 4-4 for almost $500 despite the fact that they were rusted and needed repair. Ridiculous!

Business opportunity if any manufacturer is reading!!!  :o

HAlf the bikes will not be off the road just because the original OEM exhausts are not available. I can assure you of that.

Lucky, I said, "if the MACs weren't available"
