Seems like someone crashed and they are parting out the bike.

I could go with the exhaust myself, but I'm not sure if it needs a mid pipe or if it's just a slip on.

And that would be only if I can put the original heat shield over it anyway .

advice ,anyone ?

Looking at the pipe myself. I thought it was a slip-on, but it looks like it has springs and another pipe in the pic, so I don't really know.?? My only concern is it may actually detract from the looks of the bike since it's slightly beat up.

It would be some work putting the heat shield on it, and it probably wouldn't fit very well anyway unless it's exactly the right radius/ length.

Nah, you don't want that thing... 8)

The ding doesn't look that bad...

It is a slip-on. The pipe you see there runs down to the header just behind the clutch. There's a clamp down there holding them together. Take a look at your exhaust if you don't get it.

Let me know if you guys don't jump. I've got one already, but at that price, it's hard to say no. If I get it, I'll probably end up throwing it on, deciding I like the X-cone better, and re-selling it...

Thx 4 the insight on the ebay tip! I finally got my gold calipers to match the fmf pipe and headers. YES! Does anyone have the gold pro-taper bars mounted?

I nabbed the pipe, and I'm super stoked to get a closer look to see how bad it looks and how much work it will be to fix up. It occured to me that I may be able to drill out the rivets and rotate the entire can so that the dented part is not visible. Of course, then I'd have to drill new holes for the FMF logo as well.

I asked the seller how much he'd charge me to throw in the side covers, as well. I'd like to experiment with painting them black, but don't want to experiment with my own.

Or not... :shock: Just plug up the old ones and go logoless... not to be confused with that blond elf dude from the Lord of the Rings movies... humm, no more coffee for me...

My logo is glued on... I'll eventually remove that and copy alex on the black exhaust thing... whenever I can find a durable paint...
