Exhaust alternatives.

[Megadan]

I got bored, and while being on TaoBao looking at Magician exhaust I decided to see what was on there for CRF exhausts (aka Hawk and similar).

So, in my best Jeremy Clarkson voice. "I was on the internet today, and I found this!"

A stubby(er) version of the ebay exhaust. With loads of ugly decals, but ignore those. If you REALLY want to be heard, this would be a good option. 5 inches shorter lol. The header also has what looks like a Helmholtz resonator on it.

This next one MAY work on a Hawk. The shapes are right, but the mid pipe mount tab appears a little bit on the high side. If it did fit, this would likely clear the air box, because the pipe would be much lower. It's also only a wopping $25 for the whole system.

That is the price of the copper gasket. You have to select which part for the price to show for each item. The complete stainless exhaust is $25.45

$25? Hell I'm ordering that next week. What's the average shipping from taobao? Most chinese sites have been about 2 weeks but I know sometimes it can be over a month

My last experience with Taobao was order - wait a week for it to arrive at the warehouse in China. Pay the overseas shipping - waited about 2 weeks for it to arrive at my door.

Just keep in mind 2 things.
1. That exhaust is an unknown fitment. Some modification may or may not be required since nobody has mounted that exhaust to this bike before.
2. You will purchase it for $25 and pay a few bucks to ship it to the Taobao warehouse. Then you will pay to ship it from said warehouse to your door. What starts as $25 may end up a final cost of 50-70 bucks.

Just keep that in mind.
