Exhaust!

[Mr.Midnight 1]

Hi everybody!
I´m from Sweden and have an XS1100LG 1980.
In very very good shape, but now i have problem whith the exhaust. The mufflers! Where can i find a similar in BLACK CHROME! The front pipes are as new!
Its okey if I can find a 4-1 though! But it must be BLACK!
I look everywhere, but cant find anyone who fit!
Best regards from Sweden!(Mr.Midnight 1)

Hey there Mr Midnight,

Well, as you have found, it's very hard to find the black chrome muflers for these bikes. MAC makes a 4-1 system with black headers, but the muffler is chromed. Same thing I've found for Jardine!

You didn't say what was wrong with your existing mufflers? Are they badly damaged, or just pitted, or fully rusted out??

You might be able to get some chrome mufflers and then have them POWDER COATED in black to match!? Good Luck!

Mufflers

Thank you TC!
Well - you know, they are rusted inside/out. (i´m sure you excuse my "Swenglish"! He he...)
You know, I have an XV1000SE 1983 though!(Midnight Special) Same problem! Front pipe as good as new, but the mufflers begin to be rusted.
If you whant to, I´ll bee glad to send you pitcures of my bikes!
They are VERY SPECIAL!

"Ja, sure!"

Nothings warms the cockles of an old XS'er's heart like pictures of Swedish Bikes... and Swedish women!
How about a couple of nice shots of the front and rearend. (and maybe a picture of your bike, too)

All the best to you - Doc!
