78 750k 4 into 2 exhaust options?
« on: October 09, 2010, 05:43:06 PM »
My 78 750k came with a 4 into 1 on it which I like the sound and performance of however with my bike about 2.5" lower than stock it's downright scary making right turns.  I've almost kicked the rear out a couple times on somewhat mild right turns because of the clearance.  I'm looking at 4 - 2 setups for no other reason than clearance but I'm not looking for a chrome exhaust.  Does anyone make a black or matte black 4 into 2 setup that'll fit a 78 750k?

MAC pipes make a couple options for 4 into 1 pipes. They are chrome, but an easy (and cheap) solution is to buy some flat black or satin black engine paint (high heat) and paint them. It works great I've done it to mine. Another option would be to have them powder coated or ceramic coated (more expensive, but perform better). Definitely options though. Good luck.

Sorry I meant to say 4 into 2 not 4 into 1.

I ordered a MAC 4 - 1 canister in black.  Looking at a bunch of pictures of it looks to have a ton more clearance than the 4 - 1 on my bike currently.  At 279 shipped you can't really beat it I guess.

That pic is of the unknown 4 - 1 currently on the bike.  I'm not sure how I'd ship mine if I was to sell it.  It's all welded together as 1 piece.
