    Re: honda xlr 125 bad exhaust need help

    might be a daft question but are you looking for an OEM exhaust or just desperate for any exhaust?
    and is it the pipework or endcan your after? if its an endcan then surely arrow, lazer etc do aftermarket exhausts i thought they were very popular bikes?
    downpipes might be a different matter, ive had trouble getting pipes before and i dont understand it because bar crashing, the endcans usually last longer than the downpipes you'd have thought they would be stocked up.

    just done a quick t'interweb trawl, come up with these;

    and
    http://xlr125r.blogspot.com/2008/08/...25-anyone.html

    and several like it, apparently the XR exhaust is the answer with a bit of bodging, hope it helps

    if its just the endcan then the skies the limit mate, its literally just a silencer on a 4 stroke and anything will do, look at slip ons from 125 sports bikes

    It mayn't be so bad as it seems. The silencer goes round the front pipe and as the exhaust rots from the outside in, you will probably find once you get the silencer off the front pipe'll be fine.

    As for joining, glad to have you aboard!

    Not sure they do. Not on such a small bike. Same problem with Fuel Exhausts up in Cumbria. Mind you, the latter are so helpful and friendly, you could do worse than give am a ring and see if they have any ideas.
