When one of the welds from a header pipe to the y-shaped manifold on my '79 Special
cracked, it was easy enough to have the local muffler shop do the seam repair. When I took off the exhaust I wondered if anyone had replaced the header pipes on their bike with those from another make and model of bike...maybe some that are easier to find or cheaper. The megaphones are in good shape just the headers are rusted out. Is the yamaha flange/spacing unique to this bike? Looks like the headers come in two shapes/sizes. Anyone put them up against other bike sets to compare?
