The CB1100 Community Forum

Hello to the forum and thanks to all the warm welcomes. I guess this will be my first legitimate post. So anybody who has read my intro post has seen that I ride about 90% of the time in town and about 10% on the highway. So of course I am already looking at possible changes to suit my riding style. The first thing that I have started looking around for is exhaust including
Yoshimura RS3 slip on $360
Arrow slip on $540
Stayintune slip on $800
Delkevic 8 inch slip on. $225

Delkevic full system $340
Yoshimura RSCV full system $1200

The question being will an aftermarket exhaust help with in town riding performance vs stock. Much of what I’ve read so far indicates no need to adjust the AFR.
Looks like most exhaust on Samurider are crazy $$$$.

A slip on exhaust will not require adjustment. As for performance, actual performance - neglegable, your riding attitude given your bike now sounds better than a muffled fart - much more noticeable.

I love my Arrow slip on. I like the fact that it retains the original look albeit smaller.

I agree with KE. You will have a negligible gain power wise (maybe 2-4 hp) and lose a few pounds (maybe 5-10 depending on which pipe you choose) however if you want more sound, then a pipe will make you happy.

I wanted quieter than my Harleys but this is like the old lady’s blow dryer. I wouldn’t mind some more growl though. The Arrow does look most like stock that I have researched. How’s the sound difference?

If you’re still in Mass, there’s an RS-3 for sale in Oxford for a decent price.

A 1/2" drill bit will give you a nice throaty growl and a slight boost in throttle response for free. Worked great for me.

Darn good price on Craigslist . Nice catch. I’m about an hour from there. Question is can I make it before I leave for Florida tomorrow night. So where abouts would I drill that 1/2 inch hole?

Moriwaki makes a nice slip on that looks like the original just smaller and straight through. Not Harley loud either, rated at 92 db.

There was an earlier post about modifying the stock exhaust.
