Wanted, a set of hen's teeth

Now, I'm no expert, but I'm guessing THIS is why my lower left pipe is a tad, noisy ?

Looks good enough to repair.

These are the 2 bits that came out, there is another bit rattling around inside, plus the end piece, currently stuck fast.

From the photo it looks like the end bit is still in the mouth of pipe, correct, if so then there's a good possibility the rattle is down to a baffle plate inside has become unwelded, they are just spot welded on the inner side of the muffler/pipe, this is a specialist job to repair, you'll need to have the pipe split down the seams to do a proper job, and then rechromed.

:( Yes I agree, had to do this on my GT750A Model (pre Delkevic's) expensive job to get done at the time :idea: :roll: over a $ 1,000 Aussie Dollars, Then replaced with second hand set of Delkevic's 18 months later ;)
The bike goes so much better with the Delkevic's,I think the OEM pipes were blocking up with Carbon anyway :roll:
Cheers.
