    It’s surprising how good the standard system sounds on the RS, the original Z1 was four into four that weighed a ton.

    Hi Willie, Congratulations on hitting 6000 subscribers. Just a couple of things I am sending you an email with a pic of an original Z1 I checked out at a bike show last year showing how they came with a four-into-four exhaust. The second is a simple tip of one of the things I do to soak up any condensation in the garage. I get old socks without any holes apart from the one your foot goes in, fill them with rice (uncorked), tie a knot in the top of each and place them under the bikes. Cheap as Chips and very effective. Cheers, Grellis.

    It was a 4 into 4, I believe. Looks cool, the top pipe on each side looks larger, and a little longer, than the bottom 2.

    The Z1B I had was a 4 into 4 original fitting, but my mates convinced me to tuck a 4 into 1 that swept up just behind my RHS boot heel; loud AND warm when required! [the Victoria police insisted that I attach a muffler extending past the rear footrest. I did as asked when I had to be in Melbourne] Flat bars and a kangaroo skin seat cover gave it a certain panache

    4into4 just doesn’t look right on the RS

    I too love the look and sound of the stock 'zorst' on my '21 RS. I once commented on an RS forum that I didn't particularly like the look of the Delkevic 4 into 4 system, after which I got abuse from around the globe ... so I won't make that mistake again 🙂

    You'll soon be more popular than sliced bread. I hope that it warms up so can get out for a ride. All the z900s were 4 into 4 , 4 into 2 for the 1977 z1000. They had a new1976 z900 in the showroom when I collected my brand new 1977 kh 250 b2.The ducktails longer, you can get original looking longer tails from Japan for the rs. But I wouldn't bother it looks great as is.

    Congrats on the 6k subs Willie - you deserve it! Did you see TAYM’s video of Stonham with the guy who had an akrapovic zorst on his 900? It sounded great but way too loud for me! I’m a standard pipe fan - comfortable cruising and keeping the neighbours sweet counts for a lot. I had a GPZ500 years ago with twin pipes and found it made chain maintenance a bit more painful. I swapped it for a 2 into 1 system.

    6k Subs! That's brilliant! Well done, Willie and well deserved. Regarding your exhaust question, I just wanted to give my opinion: I have a 1979 Suzuki GS750. Originally it was made with a standard 4-into-2 exhaust, very classic looking and fitted the lines of the bike perfectly. By the time I got the bike (around 25 years ago) it had an after-market 4-into-1 system fitted. It sounds great and looks nice from one side but on the other side (without the silencer) it just looks bare and wrong. Original systems for these bikes are extremely rare and pricey if you find one so my other option (at some point in my hopefully better off future) is to have a custom 4-into-2 system built, following the pattern of the original equipment. The bike is crying out for it. Anyway, the point of this ramble is to say that I feel the same about the Z900RS. It's such a beautiful bike in every way but it would look even better (in my opinion) if it had that balanced look of a silencer each side. Cheers

  • @franktreadwell3442
    @franktreadwell3442 День назад +4

    The exhaust I would get for your bike is the Delkevic 4 into 4. Looks exactly like the 1970s Z1.

    Think original was 4 into 4, but lots of 4 into ones were fitted; sounded rorty but I preferred 4 into 2, made bike look more balanced and less bare on one side

    It's been that cold today I thought about wearing a coat and long trousers, then I thought it will soon be spring so there's not much point. If I remember correctly the original Z900 had 4-4 pipes, but a lot of people fitted 4-1 Alphas for noise.

It's a chrome/black RE Interceptor 650 and was picked up from Chorley Yamaha yesterday and delivered to me here on the south coast of the Isle of Wight this morning, just beating the snow. I now have three bikes. A last of the line '21 plate Euro 4 Classic 500, in Army Battle Green, a black '22 plate Euro 4 Himalayan 411 and now the 2,000 mile only Euro 4 Interceptor. That's a good enough selection for me I think lol 🙂
