    1150 aftermarket exhaust... again

    Hello,

    I was looking at the exhausts on my 1150s (Kerker and Muzzy) and they look aged beyond my ability to bring them back. I'm looking for a good aftermarket replacement for them that will let me get at the oil drain and keep my center stand. My usual parts sources all just have the V&H drag pipes that require modding the frame and losing the center stand. I don't need big performance gains or deafening volumes, just serviceable pipes that will let me retire the rusty old ones I've got.

    So what pipes should I look at and where are good places to get them? (I'm in the US)

    BTW I know that there are threads that hit this topic previously but they are years old and I'm hoping for more specific and timely info.

    thanks.

      I know this isn't what you are looking for but the V&H sidewinders won't make you remove the centerstand. Ray.

        There was a really nasty set of V&H pipes on my bike, chrome rusted through and pits in the pipes. I painted them with VHT flat black after a good wire brushing and sanding. They look more than acceptable now. I would have tossed them in the trash if I had replacements at the time.
