GigaWhiskey Posted July 29, 2008 Share #3 Posted July 29, 2008 There are three pipes that I would like to hear on a 1st gen - Kerker K1 and K2 (Will never happen) and Yoshimura 4-1 (prolly will never happen either). Yea, old school I know. The best sounding bikes I have ever heard (4 cycle) is a CB750 K1-k8 with a Kerker 4-1. I love the sound a of a CB750 with a 4-1. Now I f I can only find one I am willing to pay for, that is another story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skydoc_17 Posted July 29, 2008 Share #4 Posted July 29, 2008 Hi Dan, I removed my stock exhausts in March of this year and replaced them with the Jardines and what a difference! Right away I noticed the bike was more peppy in the mid RPM range and the engine wound up quite a bit faster. I didn't have to rejet and the sound is sooo cool! Not too loud at idle but when you grab a handfull, she lets you know! Even my wife likes them! Now that doesn't happen often enough!

PBJ Posted July 29, 2008 Share #7 Posted July 29, 2008 Dan, I wish I had a sound bite for the other members but I do have a pic! I do like the look and sound of the stock pipes but those sure are purty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GigaWhiskey Posted July 29, 2008 Share #8 Posted July 29, 2008 I can see where the the turn downs would look good with the 86+ bags but the 83-85 bags do not look right with the turn downs to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGuns Posted July 29, 2008 Share #9 Posted July 29, 2008 I added a set of Jardines to my 1300 and immediately realized that were just too loud. Under heavy acceleration, kinda reminded me of a hopped up small block chevy really winding up. Loved the way they looked but could stand the racket. So now they are in my garage rafters. Maybe someday when I have some hearing loss, I may reinstall them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturous Randy Posted July 29, 2008 Share #10 Posted July 29, 2008 I can see where the the turn downs would look good with the 86+ bags but the 83-85 bags do not look right with the turn downs to me. I have the lower light bar along with a trailer hitch on my 83 and everything comes out just right. Actually, before I put the Jardines on about ten years ago, the stock pipes were way too short. Now the exhaust comes out just where I want it. I will see if I have a picture of mine when I get home I can post. RandyA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturous Randy Posted July 30, 2008 Share #11 Posted July 30, 2008 As I said, the longer Jardines work well for me. RandyA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
