New Cycle X exhausts
« on: November 29, 2010, 11:37:14 AM »
Does anyone know about the new exhausts they're advertising on the Cycle X Website?  It looks likes a few new versions of a 4-1. I would be interested if they were cheaper than Carpy's and sounded better than their 4-2-1.

I'm really tired of my rusted mac 4-2 (with turnouts!) and Christmas bonus time is just around the corner.

I think their 4 into 1 Drag Pipes look sexy!  It will be interesting to see what the price is when they are offered.

Hey Guys...

Here is an example of just 1 of our many anticipated exhausts:


The finish product should look similar to this...

I think everyone would dig some sound clips when they're available. It's always cool to see/hear new products offered for our 40-year-old bikes.

Hey CycleX ,probably not but are you having any front fender clearance issue with that pipe ? Picture looks pretty tight. Lots of old 750's got the back fender dent from their aftermarket  pipes. Good way to tell if the front end ever got smacked real hard  :)

Just the angle of the photo along with a front wheel turned to the right. Check the photo above. RR

Good point and good eyes .......... noticing the fender clearance.
That particular sidewinder is for our drag bike with some rake in the frame.
We have another sidewinder with #2 pipe modified for fender clearance........... still keeping equal length.

Any plans on the drawing board for a simple but sleek 4-4 , 4 pipe set up maybe with a nice meg end and baffle either chrome or black ??   OOO LALA     Eric

4 pipe system ?
Funny you bring that up.
We have a huge order of stainless tubing on the way for a 4 pipe system with stainless mega phones.
Of coarse, you are going to ask for photo's ............... might have to wait a bit for photo,s
Although, the 4 pipe system will easier than the sidewinder ......... it still takes time

I have the 4 into 2 into 1 system and I really like it.  I cut about 6" off the muffler that came with it (and re-welded the baffle) and I couldn't be happier.

HMMM-Be sure to update us sometime on the 4 piper--Depending on the price point I think you could sell some of those systems.  Eric

I would suspect the pricing would be up a bit.
Stainless tubing, stainless megaphones and everything multiplied by 4.
Cant guarantee the price would be dirt cheap.......... but we can guarantee they look and sound killer ( so to speak )

I have been eyeing those 4-1 tri-y pipes too. Nice looking and way cheaper than kerkers on some sites!

Those pipes look great. Was wondering if you make exhaust for the 750's little step brother, the 550k?

I thought there were going to or are? Looks like chrome drag pipes are coming according to their coming soon page.
