Thanks! - I know a lot of places sell them for about that, but new would look way out of place on this bike and I don't want to put another $60 into it.

well, if you change your mind i think they sell black ceramic coated ones for $50. That's more than what you didn't want to spend, but they'd look at home on your bike.

I'd be hesitant of buying a used part that most people don't consider to be high quality, even when new. I hear a lot of people talking about emgo's vibrating the mounting weld and them snapping and falling off. I just bought some for my bike, but I don't anticipate them lasting more than a year or two.

Truth be told, I just bought this one for the mufflers, but with a little work it actually ran and went down the road and I don't want to part it out, so I just want to put some cheap mufflers on it until I decide what to do with it. Looks a lot better in pictures; that's actually a brushed-on black coat on the frame and a ca95 tank that I have replaced with an old white C76 tank for a striking black and white contrast look.
