Newbie From Minnesota

Hey Guys,

Great site.  I appreciate all the information.  Back in 71, the Honda 500 caught my eye.
Finally, I've got my own.

Here is a shot of the bike.  She is a beauty!

I'm not sure what make the pipes are.  I purchased the bike with them.  There appears to be a
number stamped into the bolt flange that hold them to the frame.  Some day I'd like to
replace with stock 4 into 4. 

Thanks for the welcome.

They look like the Jardine 4 into 2 slip-on's I have on my 750.

Do you have a 650 C or D?
