Hindle pipes are the lightest stainless steel that I know of, very close in weight to Ti :) 

Yes they are. I do not really like the look on a old bike.  They  probably work better than a true 4 into 1 .I weighted one for a GS.  Very light.

I assume its the look of the silencer that you do not like. They have different styles of silencer .

You can use any aftermarket 52mm silencer 

a 4-2-1 will work better for most people than a full race 4-1 which tend to only work really well in the upper end of the rev range, good for a racer that can actually use it, not so good for street use where you really want the mid range that a 4-2-1 gives

They are a nice exhaust, I just don't like how they look compared to a more period exhaust. The race version is easier on the eyes, I almost bought one 2 years ago at Mosport from the Riple Rock Racers owner.     I put a Yoshimura muffler on my MotoGPwerk exhaust, it had the newer style muffler with the weird endcaps.

so let me get this right, you don't like a megaphone exhaust on a bike that came with a megaphone exhaust. Forgive image.thumb.jpeg.f13db0c7db657dbb3a3ae184c7007af1.jpegI don't get it.

Please post pics of cool looking efe in background :)

will get to it, pictures come out shitty compared to what's on my phone. It takes me quite a long time for me to get picture from phone to computer. Need help from a 12yr old I guess. Just a retard with this stuff. Had that one from 88 just longer than second wife. Thanks will see what I already have on here. Most probably will not have the side covers on as I am always tinkering, don't know as they have been on except once since new paint

It's not the megaphone, I rode years with one,  I just don't like how the Hindle look. This is why I don't have one.
