That look like an aftermarket exhaust made either by SITO or Marvin, both Italian companies. A genuine Suzuki would be stamped on the side of the silencers.
@@bikerantics5001 thanks for the reply, ended up grinding off the last 6ish inches and was just enough to remove it all to a straight pipe and sounds great. Still has the OEM exhaust look too. Now I’m worried if a straight pipe will cause issues because there seems to be mixed opinions on that. After an hours ride time so far so good though
@@MeanDean74O A straight pipe can cause the bike to run lean. You could check your plugs electrode insulations are the correct colour after a ride. I think if it’s running lean the plugs electrode insulation is a very ‘clean’ white colour instead of a brown or grey. I bet it sounds nice now👍
Nope, my GS did seem to be running a little bit rich, and I believe it still is, but since removing the baffles it starts quicker and ‘seems’ to run/ accelerate smoother. It makes a little bit more noise, but nothing that would annoy people when riding in built up areas. The baffles are only riveted in so it’s fairly easy to reverse the process. Even with the baffles out there is still restrictions in the exhaust, which allows (I assume?) a good amount of back pressure. Hope this helps and thanks for watching and commenting 👍
@@bikerantics5001 thanks a lot. I have an 80 gs1000g with a 4-2 exhaust. I plan on removing the baffles and adding pod filters. Do you think I’m going to have to re-jet? Any advice on a starting place?
@@rovch_ it’s not something I’ve ever done to a bike so I’m not 100% sure, but with a less restricted exhaust and increased air flow I would certainly think you’d need to up your jets or the bike could run lean which can lead to a lot of serious problems, if it’s very lean it could overheat and seize the engine. At least with running rich usually it just leaves carbon build up and that can be cleaned off, which is cheaper than a re-build. There’s a lot of videos on RUclips about the subject, which is where I’d start looking. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful and good luck 👍 Here’s some channels that I trust for help:- Classic Octane For the Bold Andy’s Motorcycle Obsessions - (he did a full GS engine rebuild - it’ll be in his playlists)
I did wonder if they were stock, thanks for clarifying 👍 I’ve since removed these exhausts, which got damaged when I crashed the bike 😢 and I’m in the process at the moment of fitting a Delkevic 4 into 1. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙏

Sounds waaaay better mate, a big 👍 from me!
Mark Scott , Thanks, it’s got a voice now, without shouting, just compliments it nicely.
This would be a great cafe racer if modified
It’s gorgeous as it is, but you’re right it would make a great cafe racer 👍
I have a Suzuki gz250 pipe looks exactly the same but mine doesn’t seem to have rivets. Would I even be able to do this?
Hi, I honestly have no idea, perhaps there’s a couple of spot welds to cut of on yours🤷♂️ Good luck and thanks for watching and commenting 🙏

Did you have to rejet for these?

These baffles aren't stock exhaust. I have the same on my GS1000G.
