What syle exhaust
« on: December 21, 2025, 10:11:48 AM »
Hi All, I need to invest in an exhaust system (mine came without one), and want to keep my bike simple and time relevant... what exhaust system was used on a late CB500 (mine was registered in Jan 1975) would it a 4 to 4, 4 to 1. or I have even seen pics of 4 to 2?
Thanks in adavnce

All 500-4s had the 4 into 4 system fitted. Anything else was an aftermarket system.

The look of a 4 into 4 can’t be beaten imo.

The Delkevic replicas, which look identical to the OEM ones are excellent quality and value for money. Trig says easy to fit as well.
