  • What is this exhaust

    Can anybody identify this exhaust system? Bob used it on his Gray Wolf as shown below. I would like to find one.

    Those are the highly coveted Jardine 'Spaghetti Pipes' you may have read about here.

    I couldn't help it...I like showing it off.

                  Mashermoto, since no one else has, let me be the first to say 'Good Luck' (sarcastic undertone). Those things are like gold, and pretty rare.

                    Funny...when I bought mine in 2001, everyone was getting rid of the Jardine "Spagetti" pipes and going to the 4-into-1 systems like the Kerker. I got my set for $50.00 or so. Not perfect, one muffler and 1 pipe had road rash when I got them, but they just fit in with the rest of the bike. Now they are 'coveted'...

                      I got my Kerker back around 1987 when i was working at AT&T as a security guard.Back then i think i paid $300.00 from Dennis Kirk.I have a small dent in #3 exhaust pipe where i must of went over a speed bump too fast.Very light surface rust is on the part where it connects to the studs.The exhaust is not pretty now but back in the day it was.....

                        You guys are right...XS1100 exhaust are a rare commodity

                        The spaghetti pipes on the Gray Wolf help make the bike, but I would settle for a straight set with those mufflers. Actually I have a set of 4 into 2 headers...if I could just find the mufflers.

                        Here is another set that looks pretty good, but not sure of how well they would fit on a standard. The ad says they will though. I like the way they sweep out and up.

                          Here is a 4 into 1. Too bad it's not shown mounted on the bike so we can see how much up sweep the muffler makes. I kinda like a muffler that sweeps up rather than flat straight across.

                            on Ebay there are New Jardine Slip On Mufflers Yamaha XS1100 4 into 2 Item number: 120276669140 . They are from merriamxs. They look so nice i may just have to bid and set the old turnouts aside.

                              Rasputin,

                              Not exactly the sexy style I'm looking for, but I am checking out Merriamxs listings regularly. Also seen some Jardine 4 into 1's go recently.

                              Wish they would post some farings, cowlings and fenders soon
