Not an ideal pic, but it looks like an SP pipe to me. To verify check for a '3XV2' stamp on the belly section. Not all pipes seem to have these stamps though for some reason?

For the oe SP pipes to fit and work properly, you would reallty need to track down some of the flange pieces I mentioned.

Some of the Japanese aftermarket pipes for the SP do away with the oe adapter flange and replace it with their own adapter flange. Others though need the adapter to be kept though, so it would be useful to find some, unless you can find some of the SP race pipes that come with their own adapters - Off the top of my head, that would be the Sugo and SP Tadao pipes. Doubtless others too. Don't expect these to be ten-a-penny though...

cheers warwick, your info is great, i can probably get the adopters from my main yamaha importers as i know the part number and i know the parts department manager really well, he recons about 100-120 euros for both......thanks again as this should make a bit of a difference

The flange pieces are NLA from yamaha sadly! I got mine from yahoo japan in the end through Dan at Gecko motorcycles.

However you are in luck! There are two on ebay germany that I spotted the other day:

I doubt you will find any new anywhere else.

Yahoo japan is your other option I'm guessing.
