4 - in - 1 exhaust question

I have the original exhaust on my 1983 Maxim 650(4 exhaust going to 2 horns) and I want to remove the 4 - in -2 section and place a 4 - in - 1 exhaust but I don't want to purchase an entire 4 - in -1 exhaust. I just want a 4 - 1 - 1 collector because I want to use the original exhaust with a 4 - in - 1 collector or whatever you call it, with my exhaust.

Do anyone know where I can purchase one at and what exactly is the name of the device? A link to a website is great or name of the device is even greater.

Thanks XJ brothers

 

do you mean you want to use the front half of your exhaust and simply re-route those to a single muffler?

not possible. the 4>1 front section crosses over and have a completely different shape.

Its also unlikely if you meant it the other way around because the pipe diameter of the muffler section of a 4>2 wont be big enough to fit over a 4>1 front section.

 

PTS, yes I wanted to take the front section of the pipes and re-route them to fit in a 4 in 1 exhaust.

So its not possible? Ok

Well if anyone wants a 4 in 2 exhaust in exchange for a 4 in 1 exhaust let me know.

 

Hi. Don't want to swap out my 4 into 1, but thought I'd let you know what it is - Instead of the usual Motad thing (usual here in the UK anyway) I have a Sebring set-up which arrived on a donor machine which came from Germany originally. I've never seen another one of these - though they must have made plenty. Lovely large-bore, curvy headers too.

Anyone else got one of these?

 

it is looking like i will have my 4 into 1 headers for sale as soon as i get my new exhaust... its off my 82 750... the muffler is pretty much shot but the headers are in decent shape. PM me if you are interested at all.

 

Never heard of it but I'm young in the game(still learning).

Is it a 4 in 1 header? If so send me a PM and will talk.

 

look in here, maybe something can be made up

Good stuff, thanks Polock

 

Polock, which 4 tube collector you think would fit a 1983 XJ 650 Maxim?

 

i've got no idea, i've never measured one

 

Cool, I get the measuring.

thanks again

 

probably none from that site.... the smallest 4 to 1 collector exits in a 2 1/4"... Thats pretty huge for a bike!

 

Yeah that's what I thought as well.

Has anyone placed a cb 550 or 750 4 into 1 exhaust on their bike?

Perhaps you can buy this and modify it to work... Its a shame they don't fit the 650s or I would have a sweet new header!!!!

 

That is sweet, I do wish it would fit. But I could always find a local muffler shop and have them modify those bad boys.

Thanks Rob

 

What about a Turbo Seca Exhuast setup? It's got a flat 4-1 collector, but the output is a flange (bolts up to the turbo). Might be worth a look

 

here you can see a 4-1 on a xj650 1982 bike.


Grtz from holland.

 

Hit me up I'm interested. Send me a PM.

 

Sorry man, that was a suggestion, I don't have one available. not surehow affordable that option would be compared to getting other 4-1 set-ups, but your original post was looking for a collector that fit stock headers, and that "might." I haven't started pulling apart my turbo yet, and don't have stock exhaust on my 750, so I don't know if I can be more helpful.

 

Its all good bro, I will figure this out or find someone on here that has a 4 into 1 exhaust that is willing to barter or sell.

 

you rang? I have a 4-1 for sale.

 

Sent you a PM

 

When you're shopping for a new exhaust, make sure you get something that retains access to the service points, especially the oil drain plug and filter. I'm in the market for a new 4 in 1 myself, my current one is pretty beat up (from previous owner) and it's a bear to get to the drain plug, I'd probably have to remove the whole system if I need to fully change the oil. Anyways, good luck!

 

Great info Ruledbyreason, I found a 4 in 1 exhaust from a member on our site. I am going to take the exhaust to a muffler shop once I get it to makes some adjustments for my after market exhaust, at a later time. I got an Yoshimura exhuast that will do the trick.

 

Also where are you located at in Virginia? I'm in the Virginia Beach, VA area maybe if your close we can ride and work on some bikes.

Calling all Virginia XJ'er lets meetup soon. PM me if your interested. I just high jacked my own thread, lol.
