I know in the late 60s, Triumph linked the exhaust on their twins,
I think to increase the expansion capacity, to help breathing and maybe making quieter,
The Honda ones are similar, but appears to be much further along the exhaust pipes,
Does it make a difference?
Hopefully those with more information will explain

IIRC are such "balancing" ports intended to increase low end torque... dunno if this also applies when they're that far down the line though...
The ST1100 has them in the down-pipes, right below where they attached to the heads; would look odd on those /4 engines...
