    Identify this Exhaust (Please!)

    Can anyone identify this exhaust? I just bought a set off ebay for cheap and I don't even know what they are...

    Bike on Ebay


    The crappy set I bought


    I have a Kerker 4-1 on it now but they're pretty squished on the bottom. I'm gonna clean this set up as an extra.

      You can't tell me nobody knows what exhaust this is! Or did I just not do it right and you can't see the pictures?

          We just can't tell. I run an old Kerker on Daily Ride, and I don't think it looks like that. I KNOW the muffler is different. It could be a MAC, Jardine, or any number of older systems that are no longer made. With the dent in the tube, I hope you didn't pay too much for it.

              might be Jardines...

              I have a set of Jardine 4-1's on Rhona, and this (the set on the bike) looks to be pretty dang similar. On mine, "Jardine" is engraved in small thin letters on the rear bracket where the muffler bolts to the frame.

                  Well thanks for responding. I only paid $79 shipped which isn't bad from what I've seen old systems going for. I've got a sandblaster and some cans of ceramic header paint. I just hope the only dent is the one pictured and its not squished flat like my Kerker.

                  Thanks Again!!!

                      Exhaust paint is no good on headers, it's thin and flakey, the pipes'll still rust and corrode eventually, sometimes quickly depending on conditions, the permanent fix is a Jet-hot or HPC coating, these header pipes have HPC black, guaranteed rust/corrosion proof for life, good stuff

                          I might do that someday if I had nice pipes, but for now the old rusty, squished kerkers that came with the bike will have to make do with spray paint. I have no problem pulling them off every year or so and redoing them. It only took a couple hours to sandblast and shoot them.
