CB1300 Bling: Aftermarket exhaust

**ceebie13** · 28th June 2007, 15:58

After having read a report on a CB1300 owners forum, seen the ads in the UK mags and visited the manufacturer's website, I decided to bite the bullet and order a "SideWinder" can for the CB from the makers in the UK. And no... I didn't hear its exhaust note beforehand but I'm very relieved to say it sounds awesome IMHO. It was all to easy with an email or two and internet wanking.
The goods took about nine days to arrive with good old Parcel Force who frankly couldn't "force" anything to arrive quicker if they tried! But once here, the exhaust was fitted in twenty minutes and here's the proof.

They are also available for other big muscley things like GSX1400, XJR1300, Z1000, Z750 and more (including some sportsbikes I believe)

Oh, and the baffles are removeable if you really want to annoy old ladies and squeeze a few more gee gees from the motor. A power commander will help too I'd imagine, but I haven't got that far yet!

EDIT! Since first posting this info, I have added some more goodies from Germany. However, the manufacturer is Spanish. Don't ask!
The belly pan and crash bobbins are made by Puig and were a doddle to fit.
People may question why the pan...all I can say is that after a spin round the Wairarapa last weekend, it successfully kept the cow shit off the oil filter. I'm not prepared to test the crash bobbins thank you. Pics below.

Hmmm, I like!

Do you have a link (I'm flexing the Debit Card as we speak!)?

They do look very nice. I see plenty of polishing in your future

Looking forward to a sound demo soon.

Silly me... I had it all prepared and forgot to add it...

Don't flex your flexible friend too much...he might snap! Especially when you see the price!

Holy shit Rich, they look HOT!!! But the real question is..... next time you pull up next to me at the lights, will my bike still be drowning out yours??

Now there's a challenge! :-) But your question summises that I will be behind you in the first instant!
In your dreams Trudi...in your dreams!

Ahh. Somebody else has succumbed to the demands of the God of Noise!

Big bikes aren't made to purr, they're made to growl.

I guess they will need to be loud for me to hear you as I wait at the next intersection

Has anyone got anything further to add?

Im thinking of going to custom chambers but was hoping that someone out there has done mods since 07 and has some good advice for me.

I looked online and looove the twin can conversions, but im thinking new headders and two new cans may be a lil out of my price range.

Also, i dredged this guy up so i dont get the "Someone has already posted a thread like this, grumble grumble" I dont want to be resposable for the end of the world you see................

Cheers

Maha has an aftermarket can on his CB 1300.

Custom chambers do a nice job & will be cheaper than the campbell item.
