By the looks of it the exhaust is not the standard one, it has got two loops for the exhaust springs to hold the end can on, could be wrong! Either way the pipe looks strange.

right then..your pictures show a long pipe with spring tabs on it. These are not on a standard NC30 system..
Yours had had a pipe welded to it it would seem?
get a grinder out and chop it off wherever you want!

doubt it, you will probably get the same link pipe you already have, if you read the listing it says the pic is for refrence only. just a point have you tried to fit the exhaust with out the link pipe?

Infact that would prob work looking at the pic's, just because the pipe seems to end at the same point it would if you cut a standard system and used the link pipe.

hi, i am still struggling with this exhaust, it wont fit straight onto the pipe for two reasons. the link pipes diameter is slightly two large the end can to slip over and vise versa, and secondly it appears if it did fit the exhaust comes out at the wrong angle and fouls the the bracket and rear footpeg!!. Its becoming a nightmare, if anybody has any ideas i might have to take it to bike garage and pay through the nose!! Please help.
Many Thanks
