Mine were fine, and cheap compared to the ones for sale here in the UK Smile

ummm...

I need a new exhaust and I totally 100% refuse to buy from Omar because I think the prices are a joke frankly. Especially when a Mac Exhaust is like half the price.

My problem is that I prefer two into two on one side as I have now..

o..the only thing I can think of may be actually having some headers and cans made.

I wonder if xs1961 ever had any made in the UK and how stupidly expensive they were..a local company took a lot of money for a desposit on some stainless bend up pipes but refunded it when they didnt have enough time to make them :-(...

My ageing "put together" system is letting down an otherwise perfect machine...drives me nuts everytime I look at them Sad

The three sets I have at the moment are all HALCO jobbies , I used to pay £80 a pair for them 10 years ago .. Any you find these days are going for well over £100 second-hand.. I sold a pair last year for £140 !! The MAC 2 into 2 (both sides) were not quite as good but well worth the price

I had a Mac 4-1 on my 500/4, and on my 550/4 Hondas. They have a clean tone, not obnoxious, and no packing to rot out. I was happy with mine.
