That Action 4s is interesting. I've only seen their pipes that collect at right about the oil filter in front.

Pipes on my K3. They actually came with a bunch of stuff I bought. Very well made, 4-1. There was an extra length between the collector and muffler (about 8”) I removed it.....

I would almost bet those are “Dick’s Cycle West” exhaust. If that’s the case, then those are quite rare as Dick’s was a short lived business who marketed his “Racer 1” line of café parts around 1973-74. The pipes in the ad look to be for a Kaw 900, but also has some features found in your Honda 750 exhaust. I would keep them until a 100% positive ID can be made.



I have an exhaust that looks like it that was on my bike when I bought it.. I like it but it's to low for my plan.. :-D
Is it this one? Or does anyone know what type this might be?

Kind regards,

I don't know who made these 2 into 1's, but if anybody has some insight, I'd be interested.



SOHC Digger, those pipes sure do look like they were made by American Motorsports. The bends coming from the exhaust ports are unique and there’s probably not too many sets that have survived.   
 
Here’s an ad taken from my Big Bike magazine dated July 1973:

Anyone know what this is, I assumed it was a mac but it looks like it sits a lot lower than most the models they offer?

Complete Hindle Stainless. 4-2-1. Spigots bolt to head like original Honda parts. The rest of the parts slip fit and are held in place with springs. 4 separate pipes, 2 collectors for head pipes, another separate collector, tailpipe and muffler. Beautiful welds, incredibly light weight. Tight fit and easy oil filter change.

No link since they don't make them anymore. They were made by MIVV in Italy, they required cutting the old mufflers off or you could purchase headers.  They stopped making the headers awhile ago.  There was a few sellers about 6 years ago that had a few of them.  You can still find them every few month on  Foreign ebay sites from time to time but expect to pay +750 dollars.  I did notice a little weaker power then with my Mac 4-1 or my Marving 4-2 exhaust but that is just what you get with 4-4 exhausts. Never the less the MIVV system is by far the best looking and fitting exhaust system that I have. Honestly fits better then the stock one.  Has a very nice sound, not loud just super clean.

Here is another exhaust I have for the CB350f but I will just give you images from the internet since I don't have any pictures right now . It is another italian exhaust made by Marving. It is a 4-2 . Very good quality build. You can still find them for sale.

 Unknown 4-2 exhaust for the CB500/550. Picked it up off of eBay. Pretty nice quality. One muffler has to stick out just a tad more because the pipes have to clear the kick stand bung. Can't run a center stand with it. Pretty quiet.

I heard this is the “tulip” style exhaust? I just made a post about my situation. Got a ‘78 CB550k with what I was told is a ‘76 exhaust. Any input?

I agree -- they look great. I'd consider them for my 350F but the cost might be a bit much for me to consider right now.

When I bought my 350F in Phoenix in 1997, it had a rotted out 4-2 something-or-another. I went to a junkyard in Rye, and found a set of stock 4-4 pipes and a stock 400F 4-1, which I knew would fit. He wanted $120 or $150 or something for each. Should have bought both, but went with the 400F, then learned I needed the pegs and shifter and brake, but that's how it has sit since '97. I went back only a year or two later and the guy wanted $400 for them, IIRC. Still should have paid it. Went back again and the price had gone up. Then most of the yard went up in flames in 2013. He had gotten crazy to work with, crazy prices, never selling anything, and super erratic behavior. Most of us suspected he was making meth. After the fire, a PHX yard bought everything that was salvageable and let me have a first look. The pipes were in an area that was completely burned up. Still kick myself over letting them go the first time. Such a cool looking exhaust on the small four.

yeah Chris, most guys refer to those as "323" exhaust...not correct for your bike.  323 is the part number code for the cb500 those pipes first appeared on and continued til 1976 550k.  1977k started with a more standard "megaphone" shaped 4 into 4 exhaust.  I don't remember the code for 77/78k 550's.  Someone should be along with it shortly.

The code is 404, Sean.   These exhaust were much quieter, too quiet IMO.

BTW - Never heard the 323 exhaust called "tulip style".

Does anybody know if an exhaust for a CB750k7 (1977) would fit onto a K4 ?. I'm looking for a 4 into 4 look and this looks like an option ??

The head pipes can be made to fit using all the hardware from the k7.  Rear mounts wont line up.  Theoretically, it would be easy to fab or modify but the much larger pipes stick way out the back of the earlier k bikes.  It looks ridiculous.   A few years ago a mocked up a set like this and posted pictures.

RC Engineering has become RC Injectors, click here for the history...

https://www.rcfuelinjection.com/History

Vance and Hines, former RC employees, formed a company and make exhaust, but not for SOHC.

BTW - one of RC's race bikes is currently being restored, look for the thread on this forum or on Fakebook.
