Ebay exhausts (the cheap ones)

I know I'm gonna get some hate on this thought but I suck at finding info apparently so lets give this a go.


3-ish years ago I got the idea of taking the left exhaust and moving to the right side and stacking it. While good looking the issue would be weight.

To get away from this I was thinking of finding a stupid cheap exhaust and using those to stack. More specifically exhausts meant for 125cc's. Something definitely lighter.


So I present to you this [garbage]...

20-30ish each. I mean super cheap Chinese I'm not expecting quality but should get the job done.



I'm hoping for something like this ultimately.






Thoughts? Alternative ideas?

Since it'll only cost you $60-$70 to find out (plus making a custom pipe), why not?

Mufflers aren't that complicated. Basically it's an outer shell, inner perforated pipe, packing in between and end caps.

Potential issues?

- In general, cheap Chinese junk is exactly that: Junk. Poor workmanship, substandard materials, etc. Don't expect quality in any respect. Don't expect it to look like the pretty picture. Don't even expect it to arrive in usable condition. Will this matter? Depends on your expectations for appearance, fit, finish and durability.

- These things are tiny (a couple of inches short of a Subway sandwich), which is going to make your bike stupid loud. Whether you want that is up to you. Loud does not equal good. Loud equals loud. Chainsaws are loud. I really don't think anyone likes having one run nearby for very long.

This is true... I'm open to suggestions!

I was aiming for something small to try and match each pipe so I can try and avoid re-jetting...again.
