That by far is my favorite pipe. I have one on my Z1-R and would love to find another one (or two) I wish Yoshi would make that retro pipe again. That pipe was actually mad by MAC for them and so was the second generation.

This is my Kerker, ceramic coated black, with a homemade end cap and baffle, I love it but the ground clearance still sucks, because my front end is so short.

Yeah, the first gen was the rounded header pipes, right? I did not know that MAC made the 2nd gen. though. Where else can you get info like that but KZR?!

. I'd be happy to take some measurements. Tube diameter, length, bend angles etc? Let me know what you need, and I'll work on it tonight.

I'll get out the mic and camera this weekend and get you the info on my Gemini pipe.
I've been meaning to measure it anyway.

What you have is the generation one as we called it, the round header pipe was a racing only pipe. The gen. two pipe had a enlarged can, like the MAC, and the Genthree had an Aluminum canister. The one you have is the nicest and had the best sound, that is why I like the MAC today because it sounds almost the same. The MAC is actually better performance wise because it holds mose heat in the engine.
