Hooker 4-1 headers: pricing?
« on: September 30, 2016, 12:47:15 PM »
I don't even know where to start with these things. I picked up a set of 4-1 CB750 headers that I thought were Macs but ended up being Hookers. Can't find these things anywhere! In fact the only reason I know they're Hookers is because they have the same part number stamped into them as a Hooker muffler on ebay: 27178. Now I don't think I'll ever use them so I'm thinking about passing them on to someone who can.

There is some VERY light rust where all of the pipes come together but otherwise they're in perfect shape. Any idea what the price range would be?

 Is there any other mounting hardware with them ? Be an easier sell for a 750 if they slipped over the stock exhaust spigots which those do not.

Nice pipes for a Hooker!

Seriously...Anyone know what Hookers slogan was back in the day?   ;D

They look like they'd use collars and flanges...

I dont think they are Hooker headers..unless there was some second generation version.
The original pipes were 4 seperate , going into a 1 pce collector/ muffler.. That had a single pinch bolt on one pipe, the rest slipfit.
 I do recall later adds that  showed a slashcut muffler.

It must be a later version then. I remember the slashcut ads.
The early ones had a removeable cone.

I do not mind hooker, but I prefer the softer version with less number of pipes! :-)

Thats a good referance link, Pewe.  Should be in the exhaust reference thread.

I had a 4 into 2 Hooker system, I did not like the way it sounded. Sold it.
