Hindle Exhaust info For 4th Gens
First a little history,I've been looking for a high mount pipe for my 90 since i bought the bike and finally gave up trying to find one for a 3rd gen.This winter i bought a 4th gen exhaust and quickly learned that a high mount for a fourth gen though listed in most catalogs is hard to come by as well unless its a Staintune which is $700 plus tax and shipping.Hindle lists the high mount for a 4th on their webpage but it not in Canadian catalogs but a local dealer called their rep. who it appears called Hindle and it is still available so finally after 3 years it appears i may get my high mount pipe i've wanted.I'm a little happy so i had to share with someone.

Congratrulations for completing your quest for a pipe. I have found that you have to beat on quite a few doors and turn back from quite a few dead ends until you find what you want. It's also nice that people seem to be more willing to help you when you just won't give up. Good effort!

I ordered a Hindle High mount for my 5th gen. Should be in early Jan. I went for the 18" oval, Black anodized, stealth version. Looking forward to it. All my other maintenance, cleaning and polishing is done. Just need my exhaust and then some decent weather (insured late Feb - last year).

I have also been looking for a high mount left side exit for my 3rd gen. No luck yet, just bought a slip on to hold me over till i find the holy grail.
But, i just learned how to use the search feature (jk) and learned that the 4th gen pipes will fit on a 3rd gen. So, now that helps dosent it? Can you post pics of the pipe when you get it installed? Thanks

A fourth gen high muffler assembly will not fit on a third gen system,i never got anywhere with the Hindle mid pipe for a fourth gen and ended finding a used Staintune 4th gen high mount and modding up two small brackets to fit it

No its not a full system,I replaced the collector box part of the 3rd gen with one from a 4th,its a direct fit.From your original 3rd system you can reuse the 2 pipes from the front cylinders and the assembly for the rear cylinders to the flange that mounts to main collector assembly.This will turn your exhaust into a stock 4th gen system front assembly and you'll have a few more options for high pipes as 4th systems are easier to get than 3rd.I had to make the rear bracket to hold the muffler,you can see it in the picture,and another small bracket where it mounts to the pass footpeg,just flatbar bent to shape drilled and painted,easy job.All exhaust parts bought used from EBAY for @$265.00 Canadian including shipping.
In the pictures replace #6(3rd gen) in the first pic with #10(4th gen) from the second pic ![]() ![]()
