Would agree if you mean Steve's left is the original...they tuck in better that aftermarket and you can actually use the pre MkIII kick start arm. If a complete set use the original pipes.

Thanks as I really didn't know which was which till now. Like front rim spoke dimples they just don't make em like they used to generally.

The one on the right side of the picture that is not straight on from the flange is the original, stock one. This would be on Steve's left. So I think we are both saying the same thing...

Hoo boy. Sometimes it is best just to keep quiet.

I have seen them both as OE with the offset one on the earlier bikes. I have also seen them sold from some suppliers with one of each although NOT the way to do business, sheess how hard is it to send a matching set of pipes :roll:

Yeah, I bought a set of EMGO header pipes a few years ago that had one of each - straight exit for the left pipe, angled for the right so it would tuck in better. Still needed to use a Mk3 kickstart lever though. I went ahead and ran them and don't even notice anymore. Occasionally, somebody notices and points it out to me.

If the kinked pipe on the Rights Left Hand partner , fits inside the chaincase join / seal Lip , and fouls it , swinging out ( so it wont ) Them theres NORVIl Production Racer Pipes,
And Wont Scrape . Would require a set of coustom footrest mounts to clear . The Old Domi mufflers'd fit in Close .
