I have an SS50 1977 fitted with a C90MG 1986 (electric start).
I am wanting to fit a standard Honda SS50 exhaust;

Will it fit to the C90MG exhaust manifold?
Do you think the exhaust would be too restrictive for the C90MG ?
TIA

Yes but remember you will have to fudge the mountings as the 90 engine is 10mm longer in the barrel so head and exhaust mount will be 10mm closer to the front wheel !

thanks for the info Dave

I can make some new brackets, no problem.
So the recess in the exhaust for the rear shock would also be 10mm out?
I could resolve that with a longer exhaust hanger bracket off the top suspension bolt.
Lowering the exhaust slightly would get the shock recess lined up, at a guess?
