If it's a twin, I have the exhaust for you. Got the head pipes in nice shape, and a pair of harley mufflers that will slip on nicely.

If I remember correctly, the only issue with putting the 400 pipes on a 350 is the mounting point for the muffler.  I you can fab something up yourself, then it's do-able.

I just put a set of MAC  mufflers on my CB350F. They went on relatively easy. I did have to shorten the stock headpipes just a little. In my case that was a good thing since one pipe had a hole right where it joined the muffler.

I know about the MIVV mufflers for the 350f, but, who's making pattern parts?

Argh....Can't remember. I have a couple 350Fs, but do I have exhaust?????

If I do, it'll go cheap. Nobody should pay that much for a set of pipes. Are you talking about the head pipes, mufflers, or the whole set?

I've got a spare set of NOS, in-the-box exhausts (4 into 4) for the CB350F that I'll be putting on ebay soon.  The #2 pipe (lower left) - the rarest item on these bikes - is used but in excellent condition.  I'm gonna include a complete set of NOS head mount flanges (the finned ones), and both sides rear mounting brackets, so you can basically bolt them on as soon as you get them.  A set like this recently went off on Ebay for nearly $1600.  I'll take $1200.  Email me if you're interested.

Gordon is correct.  I'm using the 400F header into a Supertrapp muffler as the original system was too restrictive for my uprated engine.  Also found original air filter restrictive so cut out filter material & fitted Uni-Filter foam from bulk stock.  This requires increasing the main jet one size up.
