I'll be wanting to make a 4-2 exhaust at some point in the future for a Fourth Generation 750 streetfighter. I want the routing of the pipes from the rear cylinders going through a custom tail along with a subframe I will fabricate myself. The front cylinders will be routed under the frame and coming out just behind the right footpeg.
The outcome should look a bit like the Honda or Ducati MotoGP racers.
I'm leaning slightly towards the look of the Ducati tail as it looks a bit more finished. I'm not going to be running big, fat mufflers either. I'll likely end up with a baffled tip or something of the like.
So, what I need to know to make this happen is what kind of pipe diameters, header lengths, where to merge the pipes, and total pipe length so I can end up with some decent power in the end. I don't need to gain any, but would like to keep losses to a minimum. Would anyone have any information on this sort of exhaust build?
you use a "Y" pipe to connect the front 2 cylinders ditto for the rear..
then shape away!!
makem short! makem long! makem backwards and pointing to the sky!
makem how you please . :fing02:
look in the galley of member

Well, sure, I'll use a Y-pipe to connect the headers together, but what I'm looking for is info on pipe lengths, diameters, and when I should connect pipes together so I can keep what power I have left on a twenty year old motor.
go to a junk yard and get some diesel truck exhaust make 2 stacks running up from the rear foot pegs -at a 45 degree angle--and don't forget the flappers up top they would create some backpressure----that would look sweat-trim them down-I would do that to mine but do not have the skills-- :unsure: - i also heard that chain link fence pipe is good for the lowdrag harley look-but they may scrap during a low leaning corner-pipe is pipe- why waste money i think 2 inch is all you need---- post some pics please-- :cool: i am looking to make a rear slip on system for my bike and was going to use to supertrap mufflers with the open end cap-one each side--just for the sound mainly would like the bike to be very loud!! :cool: remember you may need to rejet or tune after a full custom system good luck-- :cheerleader:
Mine was 4-2 when I got it... Someone just cut the exhaust before the 2-1 part... it was terrible. I'm not sure if it was because of their amazing(ly terrible) ability to only use welded angle cut pieces of straight pipe, or because of the actual plan. I replaced it with the complete stock 4-2-1 later. I'd love to see what you come up with though.
