There was one on Ebay and Dennis Kirk has one listed that will fit.

Are you looking for an original or aftermarket exhaust. Or does it matter which.

I''ve got an old Yoshimura that came with my 95 when I bought it and then took off to mount stock pipes. PM me if interested.

Why did you remove the Yoshi, Pacojoseph ?
Not liking the sound, or just prefer two pipes ?
Did you notice any change in performance when you made the change ?
(I''ve heard the Yoshi helps the midrange a bit)

I actually liked the sound, but I live in the city and I and my neighbors prefer that I keep things as quiet as possible. The Yoshi is not that loud actually, and if it sounded like it did to me when I wore earplugs when I wasn''''t wearing plugs, I wouldn''''t have swapped it. Anyhow, aftermarket pipes slow me down rather than speed me up 99% of the time, since I generally shift by sound rather than by the tach, and louder pipes just have me shifting earlier. With quiet pipes I can blast around as much as I like without attracting attention (especially the flashing light kind). I know I''''m probably in the minority here, but I haven''''t had a speeding ticket in a long time.
As to increased midrange, I can''''t remember- it''''s been almost 5 years since I did the swap.

Nothing wrong with keeping a low profile when the "blue lights" are around. I''m inclined to speed a bit, but our road system here''s built for it and we surely don''t have the levels of traffic and congestion that you do. Standard pipes will get the job done, thy''re very quiet - (I bought my bike after the originals had rotted off and been replaced with a freeflow set) Neighbours just grin at me, so all''s well. Thanks for the info.
