morning all, I've gotten hold of a fairly good condition standard twin system, will fit it to felicity jayne the ambulance ,, what if anything is needed to install adtermarket mufflers/slipons as I'm guessing the two on the system are most of the weight , , are standard pipes overly restricted , pretty sure they will be quiet ,, no amount of rust coming out  :yahoo:
unless you ride bikes, I mean really ride bikes, then you just won't get it

84 Fj1100  effie , with mods
( 88 ) Fj 1200  fairly standard , + blue spots
84 Fj1100 absolutely stock standard, now more stock , fitted with Fj12 twin system , no rusted headers for this felicity jayne

Mate I got a loud 4 inta 2, a stock 4 inta 2, and a 4 inta 1.  All on 93 models. I lifted the front wheel accidently one day (1st gear) on the stock when departing a T  country intersection. (just the right speed when I was forced to give it a fistful). I enjoy the innocense of a quiet Stealth beast. (I believe 4 inta 2 has more torque). Tha little bit of restriction will hardly ever be noticed on your island. IMHO

`78 XS11/1200 with a bit on the side.

your not wrong about it being stealthy, quiet is  understated,, got it cleaned up , and fitted , fired the beast up , not expecting her to be a lot quieter than the 4/1 she had , , extra torque can't be a bad thing , , now have two that could make you deaf, and one you would need a hearing aid to hear  :lol:  ,,
