Cb550 yoshi 4 into 1 exhaust
« on: April 27, 2011, 11:52:02 AM »
A short time ago there was a post under the bikes and parts for sale area about the replica Yoshi exhaust. It got kind of personal so i think it has been taken down. NOT looking to rehash all that, but somebody had posted video of their exhaust and i sure would like to see it again, as there are some of these on ebay now and I am considering buying. Does anybody have pics or video they would be willing to post?

From the pics, it looks kinda funky, but pics do lie.
What is the dispute?
If they are quality with good bends I want a set too!

That 4-4 pipe in the ebay link is gorgeous! Anyone know how much he charges for that? I can only assume it isn't cheap..

your best bet to get the price for the 4-4 is to contact Chris at Moto GP Werks directly by phone, he's in CA so I would Google MOTOP WERKS in CA for his website or phone #

Thanks for the replies, the video is really helpful to see what the exhaust sounds like.

4-4 is not a cheap option.  :o but they look nice. And when the bike runs ,be sure, there will be a video.

I will agree, they do look awesome. I'm dreaming of a 550 build in the next couple of years (we can all dream, can't we?)....and tintops swarbricks look awesome, but seem to be a bit of a headache as they require some modifications to fit....I'm really liking the look of those.
