mikee Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Its hard to tell from the photos. Looks to be the same as mine, so i would say its a short one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordi Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) At a guess, I would say its the long version. I do have both lenghts and it looks very much like the long one I have fitted at present. If its any help the measurement from the end of the bend to the exhaust box is; short 2.5 inches & long 3.5 inches.

Sump Guard? Looks like the pipe guard / heat shield is painted red if thats what you mean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best Tom So it is probably a long pipe then, so the stupid comapny (not allowed to mention the name) put a long one on, when i asked him for a short.

benbeta23 Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 i've had a look at pictures with the pipes compared, & mine 99% sure looks like the long but any other opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordi Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Why are you so concerned about having a short pipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benbeta23 Posted January 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Why are you so concerned about having a short pipe? I Was just interested to know really, because my 125 should have a short pipe on for more top end power, because the long is designed for the 250, 280,300's for slower bottom end power.
