Not sure who owns the yellow wing they showed but it is one beautiful goldwing...And do you want me to think it was painted with plane old spray paint...IT JUST LOOKS TO GOOD!!!

Thanks. Yes it was rattled canned. I later sold it to a good guy here.
I am currently working on doing cosmetic and minor mechanical repairs on another 82 GL1100.

Well, looks like many sidebars from how this topic started but back to the original subject matter.
What to do with these ancient leaky exhaust systems.
Hard to believe with the pool of creative minds here patching up the old stuff is all we have.
How about a nice looking nice sounding alternative?
Maybe someone who know how, organizing an affordable group buy with an aftermarket company?
These old wing's don't retain much market value so I get not wanting to spend 5 or 6 bills for exhaust but someone must have come up with a good idea.
What say you?

Best idea I have had is watch ebay for used Jardines and similar.

I think allot of riders just graft on a pair of take off harley exhaust or others such as triumph Etc. I have only heard of those two being mounted but I`m sure many other will we need access to an exhaust pile to root through.

the harley take off exhaust is the option most go .....

The only "new" system I've found doesn't match the $$ figure., these guys are $700

But like you stated contact them about group buy or would they make an OEM knockoff or any other ideas to reduce price to point of interest?
