Default Anybody know what kind of exhaust this is ?

Got this on my mini twin racer when I bought it. i assumed it was stock but closer inspection and comparing it to pics in my old mate the Haynes manual it would appear to be after market. Any body got any ideas ?

I should have attached 4 pics if I've done it right.

Cheers guys,

To me, the hooks for attaching the can with springs suggest Akrapovic, I know they're a fan of that system, but I honestly haven't seen enough aftermarket pipes to know for sure, one of the other manufacturers may well do the same.

Not OE though, you're quite right about that.

Don't think it's an Akra all the way through as it's not got the spring tangs on the cylinder header.

The Akra system is a separate part at the "2 -1" collector, (at least it was on my K3) that one looks like one welded piece.

It would appear that Micron is the people's vote
