                      The crossover clamp still looks good!?

                      This scares me about the condition of the rest of the bike.

                          Now that's UGLY. and likely means the water drains were blocked. there are water drains (2 small holes, 1 on each side) at the lowest points in the exhaust system that often get plugged and stop working. Keep them clean. On after market headers that often don't have the drain drill one at the lowest point in the system and keep it working.
