Emgo Exhaust??

[dsinned_imp]

NP, sorry, I forgot about that.

Btw, I meant to say its 12" long, not 17" and I received the same set of 3 reducers with mine. Note that no reducer is required for a 1-3/4" OD connecting pipe. All the reducers do is sequentially step down by 1/8" IDs, so the Emgo can be connect to smaller diameter pipes.

The thing about connecting "directly" to the header pipe on a CB1100 is the Emgo will then be "splayed" out at an angle from the center line of the bike. This can be done, of course, as you apparently did, but then the exhaust looks kind of peculiar and out of place. That is the advantage of a properly designed link pipe for the CB1100, which also solves the problem of providing a landing bracket for the center stand rubber stopper. A link pipe with a 1-3/4" OD is required to be compatible with Emgo's inlet opening, but does such a link pipe actually exist?

A member here by the name, "gcarper" said, a spare link pipe he had from a older model FZ1 worked well for his installation on his CB1100, but I'm not sure about the center stand landing. I think he had to make a special bracket for his CSS and located it on the left, underside of the bike. He shows that bracket in his You Tube video.
