    exhaust pipe inlet size

    Hey everyone. I'm bidding on some pipes for my GS 400 cafe, but I don't know the inlet size I need. I'm pretty sure the pipes are 1.5 inches in diameter, but the bike isn't here. Does anyone know the standard size of the exhaust pipe on early 80's japanese bikes? thanks Steve

    Not a Cafe but it has two wheels and when I ride it the devil horns come out!

    I'm selling my track bike. It's a 1989 yamaha FZR 600 that was built to be raced in the early 90s. It spent a few years being abused at Shannoville's "FAST" racing school before I bought it. The bike is track ready and running. It is ugly, but it always passes tech inspection and noise...

    Regulator Rectifiers

    So I've determained that the reason I've blown my damned headlight so many times is because I tend to rev the hell out of my bike, and my rectifier is toast. I have an 81 GS 400. Here's my question: Do I have to buy the exact regulator rectifier or can I get away with using one off another...

    looking for headers

    I have cafe'd a 1982 GS 400 and I hate the look of the headers. I really like the look of the honda CB450's with the nice round lines. Anyone have any kicking around? And do you think they'll fit? I plan on cutting them short a bit and going with shorty pipes or something. Othewise I'm...

    flat backed taillight + round tail piece = mounting issues

    Hi there, I just bought a sweet round tail light off a vintage car (can't remember the brand) for my cafe project. Trouble is that I can't figure out how to mount a flat backed light on a curved surface. I've seen a couple bikes here that have the same kinda thing going on. How do you mount...

    New member with some streetfighter meets cafe questions
