I've seen that the exhaust on my MKII is a bit different compared to most pictures of MKII.
My MKII with exhaust:

The other model:

Are both originalstuff? Different years?

those exhausts on Your MK2 are not original they are after market
the exhausts on the Red MK2 are correct and were the only type fitted to that model

And there was no difference between different markets?

Can my silencers be off a different Kawasaki? These are similur:

There is no brand mark on them.

Are there any Kawasaki part numbers or at least Kawasaki stamped on them?, they look like aftermarket to me

they are aftermarket
Kawasaki never used amounting bracket like the one on Your silencer Fred
that silencer looks very like a Kerker

Thats because of the lovely brownish stylish color...

They are extremely simular to these:

Stamped CM51-D and CM51-S.
Said to be of a original Z1100, and if the MKII at some models was sold with Z1100 mufflers, I maybe thought to buy them just because they are nice to have for a future restoration.

They looks similar to BSM pattern silencers Pt. no. 2010 (dutch company)
made for Z1000 and 1100ST

Deffo not origional equipment. Kawasaki never used those type of fixings.

The ends look very similar to SITO silencers :!:

they are definetly not original Kawasaki silencers

Great for that many answers. They are sold as NOS Kawasaki-mufflers, but then I will reconsider my thoughts of buying them.
