No, there isn't any.

Do a search here for "exhaust". Most who have tried to make their bike "louder" end up putting it back (I did). It just ends up sounding like a lawn mower without a muffler.

The GZ isn't made to go FAST and it isn't big enough to make a lot of noise. If you "need" either of those things, you have the wrong bike.

Re: exhaust

Well I heard of a system that is actually for little cars, it involves some electronics and a honkin' subwoofer, hook it up to your ignition and battery, then select "Lamborghini", "Ferrari", "Corvette", "Porsche" etc. at the little box, and the sounds will come thundering out.

I don't know if they make them for motorcycles with "Ducati", "Moto Guzzi", "Indian" etc. :??:
If ever, don't count on a "Harley" selection because they patented their sound.

Even with the stock exhaust mine sounds more like a lawn mower O_o

Forgot about that post. Thank you.
HOWEVER......
Don't know about the others that responded but I THOUGHT I was giving him the correct and only information available because I (maybe wrongfully) assumed he meant "bolt-on" replacement exhaust made for the GZ.

Now he has options.

I guess I also assumed that everybody would know that if you have the time, money and equipment necessary, almost anything is possible !!
