Which 6 into 1 for my 79?

[radwing]

I am trying to decide whether to install a DG 6 into 1 pipe or step up to a Powerflow 6 -2-1, ( Bassani replica). The Powerflow is a lot of money after you add the shipping cost to get it here from South Africa.. Can anyone help me out here? Is the sound of the Bassani style pipe better than the DG? Is there a performance difference? I would appreciate any advice since I am ready to bite the bullet on one of these options. Thanks

Speaking strictly from personal experience the Bassani sounds and looks better.
I could not tell a performance difference by the seat of my pants.
My '79 with a DG did not need rejetting. The '80 with the Bassani had a Stage 1 carb kit.
I imagine the Bassani Replica is probably double the cost so that would point me to the DG.

I would ask the question "why a 6-(2)-1?" Besides the fact that 6-1s are not necessarily the best exhausts as fas as tuning and performance, to me, they give the bike an unbalanced look. There is just too much empty, unfinished space on the other side. If you would consider spending the money for a Powerflow , you could consider one of the Sankei original replicas.
