Exhaust

Post by jakestoltz » Thu Feb 16, 2012 8:51 am

Hey Everyone,

I have a CB160 with aftermarket exhaust pipes, or custom ones from what I'm told. I was hoping to return the bike to the original look. I see the exhaust pipes aren't cheap, but on ebay they have replica ones on there from Bangkok from about $70 versus $500 for the originals. My question is, should I steer clear from the replicas or would they suffice?

Thanks for your thoughts!

Jake

The replica's from ebay are worthless!They sound horrible and chroming comes of very fast. If you want to buy new ones maybe you can look at dunstall exhausts. Beter quality then the ones on ebay.

By the way, I was pretty certain that the ones on eBay were crap, I just wanted to make 100% sure they were.

Thanks again!

Jake,

If you get new ones I might be interested in purchasing your old set.

My rat 160 "Patina Special" is going to need new mufflers, and I cannot find any aftermarket ones that are small enough.

Any thoughts?
