RIP Darryl Bassani

[SoCal250]

Just saw this on Cycle News
I have his stainless cat-back system on my SVT Lightning truck. Awesome exhaust! I don't have any of his two-stroke pipes in my stash though.

I had seen his exhausts on bikes in pictures and ebay and always heard good words and praise for them!!!

And now days I guess its impossible to get one even used : (

I had a set on an RD 350 and loved them back then.

bummer.

[dgorms]

I had a 71 ts 125 with a bassani pipe that humbled my buddys tm 125!

[biggraham]

I may have a set for an RD400 for sale soon, shipping may be too much for my prospective buyer..

I know that this isn't 2 stroke oriented but...

Here's a pic of a hand bent Bassani that's on an old Cycle Tune track bike.

Halcyon days indeed.

Imagine the music that came out of that

I assume thats a honda of some sort?. look at the underbracing on the swingarm! thats all business, no show.

[85RZwade]

My guess, too. Honda wheel, rotor and caliper; frame makes me think DOHC CB.

[m in sc]

you're right, didnt even notice the caliper...its pretty wild w the relocated shocks. I had a dohc 750,an 81. it was a pig. (1st bike actually). man that thing was hateful to live with.

Mr. Bassani I have several sets of your pipes!  Used to have a 4 into 1 for a KZ1000, new in the box and sold it to a friend.

My first street bike was a '79 750F...great minds

I don't know the year but it's my Brother's bike. I found him a set of 33mm mikuni smoothbores to go on it
and I'd really love to hear that bassani "basso profundo" once again in my lifetime.

Mr. Hawaii Mike: The sound of liter+ kawi's into a bassani was like barry white singing cannibal corpse. Freakin' awesome... Do you still have any left?
