Does Muzzys really make $3500 exhaust systems?
Ok, so I saw this auction on ebay, for a ZX-9R:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4546133970
Note the part in the description that says it has a Muzzy Titanium Exhaust complete system valued at $3500....so I emailed the guy and said, "Hey I looked around on Muzzys website and cant seem to find an exhaust valued at that much, so can you email me a link to the exhaust you have."
His response was, "You can call Muzzys and they can custom make them."
Rob Muzzy? Doug Meyer? Anyone? Can you validate this???
If you look at the pics in the auction, they dont appear to be any different than a standard Muzzys exhaust.

The only $3500 pipe he has is filled with crack.

Sure we will make you a $3500.00 pipe. How many do you want? Way back when we hand bent Titanium Superbike pipes they were $2800.00. That was late 80's.

I don't think it's too difficult to see that a nice chunk of the crap on ebay is just that, crap. Usually overpriced too.

The ZX-9R only came in my favorite blue color in 1999, so I was actually interested in this bike. But why purchase something if the seller has to lie about something as simple as the exhaust which doesnt increase the overall value of the motorcycle. He only wanted $6000 for it which was cool with me, but I passed on it due to the way he misrepresented the bike.
I dont even think the auction ended meeting his reserve. That tells me quite a few other people didnt buy his description either.
