Hi. I'm new to the forum and looking for some help. I can't sell these exhaust pipes if I don't even know what they are. There are three pictures at the following link:

http://www3.telus.net/shmeebs/exhaust/

I haven't the faintest idea what they are off of or whether they're stock or aftermarket. I'm not even sure if I have the two pipe alligned at the flanges correctly or if they're off by 180 degrees! Any help I could get from you experts to at least narrow it down would be appreciated.

Note that the two flanges that attach to the motor are pretty much opposed to one another, facing in opposite directions.

I'm not here to sell them specifically, but if you know them AND want them, I'm open to offers...

Thanks in advance.

No idea what bike has both exhausts emptying into the 'V' between cylinders, but if you find such a bike, that's your prime candidate.

The port shape is odd too. Maybe a rotary engine?
