750 to 550 exhaust
« on: October 25, 2008, 06:30:29 PM »
Hi All, New here, I have a exhaust question. What's the differance in a 1971 750 exhaust and a 1974 550 exhaust? I just bought a 550 today with after market pipes and I had a stock locked up motor 71 750. Also is the rear wheel the same also? Many thanks, Tattoo
