So I have ran into the famous Ti pipes breaking off at the flange. I'm looking to replace both y pipes with yamaha updated SS. Question is where is the cheapest OEM store to buy from? I found them for $144 free ship each and have read a few people getting them much cheaper then this?
Also wanted to know when its time to change your Hyfax? Mine look good but I really have no idea. Here a picture.

Lots of meat left on those sliders. I would run them another season.

Remember, its not always best to buy from the cheapest place, its about the service. Portyamaha is the place to order from!
10mm wrench is a good guide to tell when to replace hyfax's.

I usually change at the line or detent. There is still meat left even then but not worth the risk. I was thinking of going with Dupont's but someone here said clipped every third like our OEM's isn't good with the Duponts. You need fully clipped.
On the Y pipes That's a great price...$144 with shipping? I saw them for $150 w/shipping. Maybe Yami is coming down on the pricing now since they've been out a while and less and less sleds will need them.

I have several sets of SS rx-1 headers that I have modified to fit the Apex. The Rx pipes are shorter, so I weld an extension onto them. I would do 215 shipped for a set.

I already bought a OEM SS set. I tried contacting you a few days before I posted this thread and you never replied.

Here http://www.ty4stroke.com/threads/aftermarket-stainless-steel-y-pipes.126510/ I also called you about a 136 track used and new. said you'd get me prices but never heard back from you.
Anyway I bought a Cobra track fully clipped and I now need anti ratchet drivers. I have a press so all I need are the two drivers. Whats the best price you can do on a set. Pm me if u want.
