When I built my 650 custom in the UK the chances of getting stock mufflers was nil as the 650c was never sold here. I had a spare pair of sportster cans but found unlike the 500's they wouldn't fit, the H box outlet is way smaller and too close to the frame for the steep flare near the inlet.
I found some new reverse cone cans from a jumble that give a slightly louder sound than stock and I quite like the look.

 

Those look pretty good, thank you for replying. I appreciate any feedback.

So, being from a jumble, does that mean you don't know what bike they came off of?

Was it a bit lean after putting those on?

 

Hi, they were new but in a plain box with no name on them unfortunately, think they are some aftermarket ones, I've seen them on quite a few different bikes. I've still got the standard H box in place and it hasn't altered the mpg just a bit louder, I'll try to find out the make of them.
I think if you retain the original H box you shouldn't have to re-jet.

 

Those look like the Emgo reverse cone mufflers.

 

Thank you, trev_h and OCR. I appreciate it.

I looked up the Emgo's, it does look like those.

Thanks again guys.

Anyone else feel free to chime in if you've used something else that you like.

 

If you aren't married to the H-box you can get Murray's Quick Build piles and use whatever mufflers you want. A lot of us use Harley mufflers on everything because you can usually get brand new ones that were only on the bike from the factory to the dealer cheap.

 

I have a set of Harley mufflers in excellent condition if you're interested...

 

I pulled the trigger on the Emgo reverse cone shorties after searching around and seeing this video...

Bought them from 4into1 for $56.

They shipped today, and will be here in time for the poker run I'm doing next weekend. Pretty happy.

Thank you all again.

 

Wow, the EMGOs sound good with the stock collector. Very deep, but without the harshness that I get with headers. Here's what they sound like without an OEM H-box:

As I understand it, any HD mufflers that don't have catalytic converters will work and even some of those can be used if you remove the cats.

 

Thanks Bob. I'm looking to change mine but unsure as to which one. I like the Harley shiny mufflers I even have rear shocks ready to fit from a Harley sportster

 

FWIW, I was planning to replace the exhaust system on my GoldWing this year and still might if the lockdown is ever lifted (more likely it will wait for next year). When I do I will go to the local Harley aftermarket place and ask if he has any pull off mufflers and choose from what he has available. I'm more interested in function than style but if he has some fishtails they could look nice on the 'Wing.....

 

I took a MAC 2-into-1 for a CX500, cut the downtubes, welded in extension tubes, and used that. Sounded great with a big ole harley muffler hanging off. Painted the welds with header paint and then wrapped it with header wrap to hide my welds. (It was originally a chrome version of the MAC, so it didn't really take to paint readily).
