VF500 - VF700/750 Stock exhaust

I'm in the market for a new set of exhaust cans/mufflers for my 86 VF500. I've seen a few stock exhaust Can/muffs for 700's for sale.


Are there any differences between 1984-86 VF500 Exhaust mufflers and ones from a 700/750/1000 of the same year?


Will they bolt on? Will they be more/less restrictive?


Thanks!

700/750 cans are much bigger, and the 1000's mount differently.

Oh....good to know. I guess that is out of the question then.


Thanks!

The vf 500 cans are hard to get slip ons for since they cone out from the collector and change angles. The bigger bikes have a more consistant diameter before going into the can giving a suitable spot to clamp a slip on to.

I'm just looking to replace my stock mufflers since one has a hole. I don't mind another OEM Muffler.
