Hey, guys!

I´ve just finished my SECA´s restoration and it goes without saying that I´m delighted to show you the result!

Regards.

I love the Seca - great lines, and I think it's aged well. Yours looks awesome - well done!

showroom man good job on the resto

Beautiful job and the bikes looks magnificent. Are those stock exhaust headers and mufflers. I'd like a similar look on my 80 xs4000 and am thinking about sourcing a set of Seca exhaust

I want an xs4000 is that a V10?

Nice job!!

The xs4000 is 10 xs400 engines joined together in a very long frame. Makes a wicked drag bike!

Jejeje.. Thanks for the comments, guys.

The mufflers are not original. The main problem of this variant are the mufflers as they tend to get rusty/perfored easily.

I should say that nowadays buying a brand new original ones is totally impossible, even if you contact to official YAMAHA dealers overseas so this is the reason why I decided to buy a couple of "short megaphones".

The sound is awesome! This is good and bad news, because on the one hand Harley Davidson owners will do their best to not park beside you, however, on the other hand, you´ll have to deal with your official technical inspection center (MOT/ITV, etc..) to explain why you fit "noisy and not homologated things" on your bike

Regards!

How about the headers; Are they stock, or custom, or a transplant from a different brand/model?

 

[MicroGarajeAntiguo]

We are talking about stock headers, however, if you want to modify the inclination like me, you´ll need an adapter between the muffler and the header exhaust; in my case a couple of Bonneville adapter.
