Like this:
The can is homemade.

How hard was that to do Steve? I've got a ratty old Motad and the silencers been hacksawed off at the point your end can joins. I'd like to attach one of those short megaphone silencers that you see on eBay; is this a welding job?
SteveD CB500K0:
This was done by the PO.
His site is here.

Thanks Steve. I've just had a new plan! I'm going to see if it's possible to do this with the Motad headers:
This is from Andy's build thread on the US forum http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=57836.msg640544#msg640544
SteveD CB500K0:
That might be tricky as the Motad has the four headers meeting just under the brake pedal in a square form. To fit two cans onto that would probably require some custom fab work.

I was thinking of doing away with the joiny bit (technical term) all together and making a four into four.
