All I know about this exhaust is that its 40/42mm, loud and really revs out compared to my AF CLUBMAN.
So i,m wondering is this an ancollotti, RS or Chiselspeed modified ( i know for a fact a mate bought there in 1996 I was told at that time Sir Ralph was making them for martin cook)

Thanx for the info, but this exhaust revs on much further than the AF clubman and has been factory fabricated by the looks of it :? :? :?
I appreciate it looks s**t and its also lighter than the rest so maybe not good quality!!!!
I ve never came across or seen a RS clubman before so JUST HOPING !!!

I havent seen Indian big bores with that extra tail pipe support before, but that doesnt mean its not one, but i have seen Ralphs pipes with them on, he also used to reduce the seams on pipes, like the one in your pic, i dont suppose you know if you have the correct U bend, if you do and its a RS pipe it will be a perfect fit and not rearly require a clamp :D .

I understand that the U Bend that is used with the RS Clubmans is made from 2 pieces ....

it certainly looks the same as the rs clubman i had on an old bike,it did hace a distinctive "crack" to the tone and performed more like an expansion,if i remember correctly the u bend was 44mm id which is an odd size for production clubmans...perhaps that could identify it?

The one Ralph made for me had a one piece U bend, as did both of my mates, but he may have made some two piece ones, who knows what he,s made apart from Ralph, they are not all the same either, he used to shorten the swan neck on some pipes to get the box up tight under the footboard, depending on what pipe he started of with, if it doesnt fit like a glove it aint one of Ralphs :lol: .
