Bought this on ebay
https://i878.photobucket.com/albums/ab349/slyrob/2012-06-13141311-1.jpg
was sold as having come off a yamaha thundercat, however, the link pipe is a fair bit wider than where it should join the standard exhaust. I like the exhaust but would it be relatively cheap to get an adapter knocked up to join the two or should I try returning the item and wait another 4 months for a decent aftermarket thundercat exhaust to come up at a reasonable price?

The DRZ is like that as standard, it has a sleeve on the smaller pipe to make up the difference in diameters. Should only cost a couple of quid to have one made up.

It may need a graphite gasket. My zx9r had one like that..
