X pipes/Cross pipes

Hey everyone -

Does anyone know any manufacturer that still makes or has made in the past X or crossed 4 into to pipes for the 900's or 1000's. Every now and then I have seen a set on Ebay. I just missed out on one of unknown make that was going for $175 and I'm kicking myself!

So far I have come up with the Jardine "Double Header" pipe.

I just love the look of these. I am interested to hear other people's knowledge or see their photos if anyone has any input to offer.

Thanks

Just Jardine that I know

I this the one?....

for 650 compare.ebay.com/like/120788141766?_lwgs...ceItemTypes&var=sbar

for 1000 compare.ebay.com/like/190583963207?_lwgs...ceItemTypes&var=sbar

there is one on the S.F ca c-list

Triangle- Thanks for the heads up. Those Murray X pipes look pretty cool, I am really looking for the Jardine style where they cross before going into the collection chamber. I have a 4 into 1 on now, really the only reason I want to change is because I love the look of the crossed pipes.

Someone posted a list of old exhausts made for XS1100's on here - There was a pipe made by Jardine called the "Spaghetti"...from the looks of it that is the equivalent to the "Double Header" for the XS1100. A lot more information available for this pipe online than the "Double Header"

4thekz1000- It is hard to tell just what that is. I saw those as well and thought it might be what I was looking for, but if you look at the head pipe sections it appears to most likely be a traditional 4 into 2. Ahhh I should have bought those pipes a few weeks ago, I kept putting it off because it was a "Buy it Now"...And someone else is the lucky new owner!

Jenk, Campbell make X-Pipes, here is a link to the website www.x-pipe.com/motorcycle.html













Info page. Interesting to read, i wonder if they have Dyno figures to back it up. More power everywhere is quite a claim

Campbell X-PIPE™ Acoustic Super Charger® exhaust, what is it?

I have a set in my shop that were removed from a 1972 Z1. They are in poor condition but I am going to clean them up and use them. I have always wanted a set myself.

They are a pain to install/remove. I had to remove the front fender to get these pipes off the bike. The bike also did not have a stock fender and I am thinking a stock fender might not allow enough clearance.

I will look for the thread where there are pictures.

They should sound diffrent. Roy

I'll take a picture of the exhaust today.

Hooker used to make some funky looking headers back in the day also,but haven't seen one in probably 30 years

This is what's on mine as of now, no freekin clue what they are, any ideas fellas

If I remember correctly Jardine sold there croosover pipes with a choice of slashcut or megaphone. I had a set that the megs were bad on. I cut them way back and built baffles for them. Sounded great and looked nice. They went with the chopper I made out of spare stuff.

PS Mine fit on a stock bike/fender without issue.

Those look like the old hooker headers if I remember right

Thanks for the input guys! I can see how they would be a pain to install/remove! Those Hookers look pretty sweet

Na, just put the pipes on a jack underneath, start the threads on the header side, then the silencer side and take turns hand tightening each exhaust nut in a similar fashion to putting on car wheel nuts so its even then tighten it down in the same fashion.
