Thats what I thought Mark although I noticed I put Alph and missed the a off the end however your spelling is correct. Not many exhausts exited on the left I had one on my Z650.

Sorry to be pedantic peeps - but it was actually spelt ALFA (they were made by Micron) :wink:

I have one in the garage for my Z650....although frustratingly I am still missing a front pipe :cry:

Got the bike home today, and it is a lash-up of an ALFA and some bits of a reverse mega.
It shall return to its proper state.

I'd say Charlie up there would take a go at buying your Alfa downpipes

*edit* Bugger, just seen the bike in your 1st post is a 1000, that'll hardly fit the 650 then!!
