Arrows, in your mind flip the the down pipes over 180 degrees

Standard

Its not an arrow exhaust. It is a pair of std exhausts with arrow cans on them.

You can tell because the arrow exhausts are welded, whereas the OE exhausts are hydroformed. The ones in the ebay ad look like the OE hydroformed 'spannies from my RGV250 which has the same engine as the RS.

Even if they were painted, you'd still be able to tell that they weren't as smooth a shape as the standard exhausts. If those are genuine arrows I'd be very very surprised.

Look at the auction photos, the spanny has arrow embossed into it.

I dont think the OP was questioning them being Arrow expansion pipes:

Think he meant is it going to fit the RS250...

If the pics hitler guy posted are actually for the rs250 then the ones in the ebay ad look quite different to me.

EDIT: think those ones were a different design, i.e. supposed to route in GP style.

The ebay ones do look more like these:

Sold as side by side style.

Ok, I reckon they will fit. They are either RS250 or RGV250 spannies, and they'll fit either way.

Mine attached to my RGV using springs rather than bolts. The mount plates bolted over the standard mount points, and the springs loop onto the mount plates. I don't think its too much to worry about.
