It's been a long time since I've been here, more a reader than a writer:wink2:
Last week I found a nos Jama 2-in-1 exhaust systeem for the sohc XS400. Brand new, it even came in the original cartboard box, al the parts packted in plastic bags. Costed me €100,-. I had special interest in the headpipes and the collector. The muffler was a typical eighties styled heavy metal thing with a straight cut off black endcap, not my cup of tea. But I also had a new Norton lookalike muffler laying on the shelf for my other cafeproject (SR500 big single). So I mounted this muffler and the Jama kit to the XS and this is the result:
I'm very pleased with it, the grasshopper's voice dropped by a few octaves and it feels like it revvs better and runs smoother, but that can be suggestion due to the different sound. Other benefits are the weightloss of 1 muffler, the fact that I could mount this system completely stressless and the fact that I can take out the rear wheel or adjust the drivechain without having to remove the exhausts.
Happy new year:thumbsup:
