New 84 VF500F Owner - Couple of Questions

Hey everyone,

Recently picked up a VF500F for $20 off of craigslist. Full flairing and cowls included. Super siked about riding it. Owner said he couldnt get it running and that it had no spark, but I ended up just replacing the spark plugs and it would run fine after spraying some starting fluid.

I think my starter might be busted as it quickly overheats and starts slowing down a lot and proceeds to not crank at all.

Heres my question, the bike has a Vance and Hines exhaust on it now, but it sounds LOUD as hell. I mean its crazy loud. I tried looking for aftermarket exhaust solutions but can't really find anything. How do I get a more high pitched ambient Formula 1 sound out of this bad boy?

 

first things first.... check your battery... replace with a new one... clean the carbs...... clean the fuel tank... not a whole lot of exhaust options for this bike... oj=h and welcome the the mad house
