Can anyone identify this pipe? Seems to fit okay but its about 1 mm from touching the shroud, it has a untrimmed shroud on it now. This is my first Tri Z which is a basketcase to say the least. The more I dig into it the more I realize this thing is going to cost me to get up to my standards. None the less, she will get a renewed lease on life even if it kills me :)

As any 2 stroke pipe will, it gets hot enough to not want to touch it. As long as you aren't wearing shorts its not a problem. Shouldn't be riding in shorts anyways:naughty:

Bends are reminding me of a Paul Turner Mid Range pipe.
I am unsure if PT ever made a pipe for the Z

Sounds pretty crappy right now but I think its mainly because the silencer is a piece of crap. I just bought a new/unused DG silencer and factory finish head pipe on ebay for 170.00 shipped for the both. I figure I couldn't go wrong with that price :beer. If anyone knows anyting about about this pipe please let me know.

I am not going to lie, but the bottem looks stock and the top looks like it is from a banshee....

I wouldn't be surprised at all if that were the case. :lol: whoever owned this machine was into all types of "rigging" that is for sure.
