Well, I think that the mags look right for that bike. It's an updated XS650, and mags are appropriate.

Green ha, green, green is nice!

But yeah, I could live with the pipes, for sure!

Is that a nice way of saying the pipes would look out of place on my bike Laughing

I have tarozzi rear sets to install also. I think the high pipes might make that easier too

Very cool!

Nice pipes, I think it would look great on your bike, but I like high pipes. It will really change the look of the 'other' side of the bike as well, with no pipe.

gs450 tank on that green bike looks good....

I have always been a big fan of these but.........at 495 US which translates into 600 Canadian plus another 160 Canadian for the exhaust inserts which you will need other wise the bike will fall flat on its face plus shipping..................... I am probbably looking at $800.00 ...........Oh yeah and if I want the ceramic coating then add another another 150 Canadian

Grand Total $950.00

Not on my bike! Ironically enough this bike belongs to a Canadian it's for sale for $4000 www.650motorcycles.com...eid30.html

Here's the pipes I cooked up for mine... Took a couple of days work, and about $150 in parts. I am happy so far. Kyle

I sent Omars an email to see if they would fit a 73 TX650. He said he would do some checking and get back to me...

I never had the "falling on your face" problem with Omars 1 3/4" mile pipes. I was convinced over the phone that the port and torque optimizers would make a big difference, they didn't make a bit of difference.

so you have these pipes? Have any pictures?

Omars says that I would need to modify the pipes to fit the TX heads? Anyone know what the difference are between the motors?

tracker79 · Posted: April 22, 2009, 4:34 pm Post subject: Re: Omar's Mile Exhaust

Here's a set Omars had chromed and gave me a smoking deal on. Just put on new tires, don't like'em, going back to the Dunlop K 180's.

I just bought a pair of shorty reverse cone mufflers off eBay, and will run them for now. Looking into making a set of high pipes down the road. Figured I will need the muffler tips in any event.
