    Will other 4-1 exhaust work?

    Anyone know of any 4 into 1 exhaust that you could make work on a 79 xs eleven? I could take to a shop for a little manipulation. I'd thought as popular as these bikes are/where that a 4-1 would be easier to find, like a kz.

      The only ones I know of that you can buy new are Macs. You can get them at Old Bike Barn. http://www.oldbikebarn.com/Yamaha-4-...category=74212
      I think I have a loose screw behind the handlebars.

        Used would be fine, like from a yard, are maxim/xjs the same or other xs models, etc. or are there mufflers that'd work on my stock 4-2 exhaust??

          Some members have used harley mufflers. You\'ll have to take a hacksaw to the factory pipes to do that, though. I\'m not sure exactly what size they\'ve used but maybe someone who\'s done it will weigh in with the details.
