Looks fantastic - and very reasonable. Do you think they'll offer chrome instead of black/alum?

I just received an email from MAC today, which i will be happy to share with y-all.

Hi Otto,

I would just like to start off it was me that you spoke with on the aluminum canister systems. We are in the process of getting these older bikes back in to get the pictures of the systems installed on them. The only picture that we have now is on a 750 Triuph. As soon as get some pictures of the system I will forward them right to you.
Ride safe Gunny and keep the rubber side down.

Thank you,
Manny Garcia

i am trying to make this mate to a 4-into 1 flat black header for my 1000j project...i got it and am wondering if there is any problem using a stainless steel clamp...to clamp the titianium mid pipe to my steel header...i think it should work....

you dont see these everyday...handmade...morwaki Z-1 titainium midpipe and morwaki z1 racing canister.....
steel and titianium make a terrible weld but i may be able to get it fabbed to mate up and then clamp it.....

What header was that tail pipe designed for. The centering and length will be a trick to match.

yep...i took a chance and bought it....a friend had an ex team hammer ninja 600 endurance bike..it had that can and it was morwaki cool in it's day for SHO....i really wanna make it work...i have a great welder(the guy who built up my broked exhuast thread tower)if i can mount it to my header on the bike and see where im at ..i should be able to adjust one of the midpipes sections/have him weld a new seam and get it to tilt/rotate the right angles...i may get lucky and be able to rotate the whole thing into place..it looks like the bends are close to all the makers game plans..as long as they exit on the right the path/route it has to conform to is kinda the same by kawi dictates....clamping titainium to steel is my ?/ quandry...i searched it and the net twists and turns without answering...keeps trying to sell me s.s hose clamps.....anyone ever clamp (or seen it done)a titainium section to steel?????the picture of yours i quoted(the mac canister exhaust system)is the best looking exhaust i've seen in a while...a lot like the 86-89 ninja 1000R yosh series...500.00 would give them a decent market too imo..

We used to do it on aircraft all the time. The thing is that the aircraft clamps are all flange clamps and not hose clamps. All the Air-conditioning ducts and bleed air ducts and boundary layer ducting is done that way. It is a mix os SS and Ty.
