Left pipe as was when started Right Pipe wet and dryed (1200)


Today/midway


the black area is BBQ paint and is what will be bellow my silver/graphite Bandage

update:

finished this a few weeks back but forgot to get pics on here and here is what it looks like,
there rear headers are bandage free as i couldnt get it back in as i couldnt move the collars back, and thanks to hondas silly popsitioning on the studs i left it with just BBQ paint on the rear header.

the 4 way branch manifold is having all the 3 joints Stainless steel welded tomorrow as there are a few hairline cracks,

the 2 way rear branch manifold is haveing a M8 Bolt tacked on,

so they will be back tommorrow evening for sand, polish, spray and bandage,

Just for the record, the system in the photos is not a TYGA one.

looks like a standard system to my untrined eye...

I'd put a lot of money on it being Yamamoto. Stock headers and stock rear manifold too.

Good progress, im hoping mine will come up as mint as yours have.

Ps - i hope you had lime with those corona's

hmmm, i thought i had a full tyga system,

when i bought the bike i had a broken tyga can it had no pipe from the can, and it seemed it had been broken off,
i assumed the previous owner had removed the tyga and replaced it with the crappy fuel can,

im actually suprised!

but i dont think its standard as its polishing up very easy!

The original one often polishes up quite well cheif, I can't remember what it looked like tbh.. I seem to recall it being standard... or possibly yamamamoto

i dont think the rear section is standard the quality is different to the headers, and manifold,

but eitherway its a nice system as it is, and will be better buffed up just hope i dont have to polish all the time!

otherwise i may as well go buy a HOG
