Title: CB750 four baffle into CB500 four
Post by: sye on May 19, 2019, 11:04:59 AM

I've been thinking ahead a little about what to do when the silencers finally give up on my 500 four K1. I noticed that the CB750 has removable baffles, secured by a screw and started wondering. The 750 baffles are not expensive and readilly available but the 500's are welded in place. it's likely that the baffles will disintegrate before the rest of the silencer.

It wouldn't be a big job removing the weld and inserting the 750 baffles if they fit and would be the ideal time to get them rechromed. The question is do they fit? I can't be the first person to think about this, so maybe someone knows for sure?

Nope, the 323 pipes baffles are welded in and you only see the end cap. There is a vid about of a guy that cut up a 323 pipe just to show how complicated it is  ;)
