Post by: peteh on March 17, 2013, 01:22:33 PM
Hi guys, my motad Neta's are getting a little crusty and to be honest i dont much like them anyway. Have any of you guys messed about modifying your exhaust system? My downpipes are good and i have a Stainless Steel collector box, i would like to keep the twin silencer set up but just want a better looking set of Silencers with a deeper sound that wont cost me a fortune

I've got a pair of XJR1300 silencers on mine. They're pretty quiet - I suppose you could drill the ends for more noise.

You are in the UK, correct? Take a look at the offerings in your local FJ UK club: http://fjclub.co.uk/ (http://fjclub.co.uk/)

I rode up and back to Bellingen from Melbourne (~3438kms) with "Bozo" and he had fitted R1 titanium silencers to his '89.  They looked good, sounded ok, not too loud, and according to him were "light as".
He also said he'd had to get middle pipes made up to fit them that cost more than the mufflers.

Yes it was a flea pay find, best £60 i ever parted with, my fj has a bit more poke through the gears and the sound is awesome! These Bikes just deserve some good cans!
