I bought this bike a few weeks ago and yesterday I noticed the pipe looked like an aftermarket piece.

I have no idea what brand it is.

Here is my bike:




Here is my pipe straight on shot:




Pipe angled shot:

 

I found this full exhaust currently on eBay and noticed it looked a lot like what is on my bike. Not sure if it is the exact pipe, but it sure does appear as such.

The construction is identical. uses a chrome or stainless mid-pipe the attaches the same as the one on my bike. It uses the same stainless steel hanger on the muffler (probably the same on all F3 exhausts?). uses the same aluminum can with the rivets and stainless steel 'tailpipe'. Though mine is missing the manufactures tag you can see the oval outline where it used to be and it is consistant with this pipe as are the rivets that held it in place.

The seller of this pipe also has no idea of the brand/manufacture. I can't make it out from the pictures either. Hopefully you guys can help me out.

 

If I had to take a guess, I would sayyours isa D&D.

 

+1. Gotta agree. It may be a hindle orerion too, if either of these two made em for this model.

 

when i bought my bike it was like that also the D&D flag was gone.
but mine was all polished yours looks a different color on the can itself.

 

The can itself used to be polished aluminum. However the bike is 13 years old and doesn't look like it was maintained really well. It is just a dull aluminum color now. This makes the stainless mid-pipe and tailpipe look like chrome (maybe it is?).

 

now that i looked at ait again your right I see where it looks like that one. you can see the circular outline.
looks simliar to two brothers racing no?(the older models)

 

Yeah, if you look at the second picture (first close up of the pipe) you can really see the oval outline left by the manufactures tag.

It's definately the same pipe.
I need to find another picture (or another owner of the same pipe) to find out what it is.

I am sure it was a pipe from when the bike was somewhat new as this bike has been sitting for a couple years and looks like it has had quite a few miles on it before that. The bike is a 1996, so I am thinking it was installed very early in the bikes life. I have looked at a lot of pictures of F2/F3's and have never seen this pipe before, but I'll keep searching.

 

yeah my friend has the two bros. cant see it in 2nd picture but its kinda oval shaped(see where can meets the mid) but your looks more circular so dont know man.
