    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.

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

    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?

    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

    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.
