Couple more questions....

Did you use torque cones at the engine flanges in this exhaust or no?

What sort of jetting did you go up to if you recall?
Yes, I have these. https://yamahaxs650.com/product/headpipe-torque-inserts/

I also bought Exhaust Port Optimizers from 650 Central.

The engine is still on the bench. I will use BS34 carburetors breathing through stock airboxes. I'll start with stock jetting. That's the plan.

Well, last Saturday I purchased from XS650.com, a set of 1 1/2" chrome replacement pipes and a set of their 1 3/4" stainless pipes (with torque cones).

Received them today (Friday), well packaged and just as advertised.

Man, those stainless pipes are beefy too!

Very pleased with my purchase. 👍

Now I think I need to buy those stainless exhaust cone/megaphones from Niche Cycles on eBay before they sell out of them.

I'll also need to figure out a set of chrome cone/megaphones for the 1 1/2" chrome pipes to put on one of my Specials.
