I am looking for  a bit of help. I own a 98 VFR and realy want a high mount exhaust. I live in a small town in upstate NY and nobody has any clue about these bikes. I cant find anything on line, but wonder if the can I have could be fitted with a different pipe. Please help!!!

Google Staintune ... they do a high mounted pipe for 5th Gens ... you're welcome :happy:   

As for a fabbed mid-pipe - not sure - what kinda can have you got on it now? ... people will want to know.

The pipe that is on it now is a Honda pipe, but not factory. Anyone I talk to about it doesnt recognize it. The bike sounds like a two stroke V8. Its only about 18' - 20"

Post up some pics of that exhaust. Sounds like someone took the stock can and cut it waay down, or maybe they tossed a different honda bike exhaust on there.

This is the one I like , keep your eyes open on ebay and around here and you will find one.

Most likely a modified stock can off as VFR or something else that's been shortened.

High pipes are getting harder and harder to find!   :blush:

The micron would be my choice as well.  I have a micron low, would buy a high if it was still available.  I don't believe that the TBR high mount is currently available either.

Only others not already listed are:

Thanks everyone for the help. Turns out Midas will custom bend me a connecting pipe so I can keep my current can. Ill get it done next week and post some pictures. Thanks again for all the help.
