Exhaust for 550

[callyboy]

Hi Tom.

Welcome to the Club. Howabout some pics?

I had a motad on mine. Popular exhaust but bit boring like you say. When i had my first one back in the long and distant past, it had a nice Marshall on it Lot nicer and sounded great.

Marvin do this one.......

I've a Motad on my 650. If you get a long drill bit in the biggest diameter that will fit in the end of the exhaust and drill through ,you get a much deeper growl from it.

Are you OK in cutting your zorst? If so cut the end can part off where you can see the weld under the bike at the 4 into 1 part, have a look on eblag at a place called pro race do lots of end cans and they sound very well, have 2 bikes with pro race cans, just look unber end can for say gsxr and you will come across then.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for letting me join - an ‘81 Kat 650 owner (Jap import)
I’ve jumped on this old thread as I need some exhaust help.
My 650 is pretty standard looking apart from a scruffy Motad 4-1 which I would dearly love to change. However, with what can I replace it?
Can the “hive” suggest anything that is available today in the UK?
Failing that, the Motad needs some new collets and a re-spray.
I’ll do it in satin black as the chrome is so bad, but I’d really rather have something new.
If someone has a complete OEM system lurking somewhere then I will prostrate myself in front of you!
Help!!!

Hi Pete,
No I’m here as a proper member. Even if the 650 isn’t a keeper, I feel another 1000/1100 in my future!
These forums are a great resource, why just use them as a market place.

I saw the link to the Marving but it doesn’t show the 650 as an option.
I’ve already bought a complete 550 OEM system that I discovered doesn’t fit the 650 so that will be sold again. Shame as the r/h side was new old stock and the rest was pretty good bar a few small dents.

Photo attached - ignore the exhaust - this was with part of the 550 system offered up for a fit.......
