Number 9 - What was and what shall be

Doesn't look like the ethos I have

[CMSMJ1]

I've had an Ethos - it is not one of them.

The welds are very nice on it, it if sully spring and uses collars to fit to the ports - like the Tyga does and the HRC RC45 one I had for a while.

It has a nice carbon can with it - no badges or other markings I can see.. I am sure I put it in the exhaust thread when I got it.

Looks like an early Tyga system I think.

That collection of pipes looks a lot like the collection of pipes I have lying on my "black-and-wrecker" workbench, waiting for polishing.

Mine's a Tyga.

I can take photos if you wish?

[CMSMJ1]

Early Tyga would make sense. Apart from the Hiperform, which is outstanding quality, this one is right up there.

@ Missis - aye, pics are always good!

[missis sumner]

Ok - my front two pipes and first collector are still on the bike though - the joint was a bit stubborn, and they didn't really need to come off... and the bike is stored in the garage behind my car, which has a flat battery, so photos of that part of the system may be difficult. However, I can get photos of the rear pipes tonight.

But the system does look an awful lot like your photo on the exhaust thread.

Here you go Mark Page 6 I reckon it's Tyga.

I reckon you are right mate.

I saw Paul (diddlydingo) not so long back. Top dude...it may well be that this is the same one...as we did do a fair bit of dealing back in the day!

[missis sumner]

Just looking at it, mine's slightly different - my final collector looks a longer pipe with an extra bend/weld in it, and the collector from the front cylinders shorter and maybe not as straight either, IYSWIM?



I'll try to take better photos when I get home.

Edit:

Mine look's more like this:

(Apart from the end-can.)

Photo of "half" of my full system:



My end can looks really bent there... doesn't look so bad on the bike, honest!
