Those look like Micron headers Mal! Nice score if they are! :headbang: Here's a link to mine from my 600 build so you can compare:

*EDIT* The odd thing is that the can in your avatar actually looks to be a slip-on.

Brandon,
I cannot open those pics anyone else have trouble ? I have an account but nadda.
Mawler,
they do indeed look like Micron by fixing style but they usually put a stamp on the end can unless it was from just after the new guys took over & there was some "brew haahaa" ( if my memory serves ) over the name rights.

I've been looking for stamp marks, can't find any. My end can is stamped "Hand Built Stainless Steel Carbon Can Co (UK)" who don't to my knowledge make headers.

I remember the eBay listing had something like this.

"I've replaced the headers with the spring mounted ???????? type, Not the shitty cheap version. I've also fitted a Stainless Steel end can manufactured by Carbon Can Co (UK)"

The ???????? above is the manufactures name that was given, which I can't remember.

Cheers
Mal.

Doesn't ebay or paypal keep a copy of the listing. I know ebay does for at least 3 months but after that I know you can't bring up the link through your feedback page. However i think somehow if you contact them they can bring it back up. Or did you get an e-mail link?

The bike was a buy it now or best offer, whilst I was checking out the insurance costs, someone had an offer accepted. I'd already contacted the seller, anyway's the deal fell through. The seller not wanting to relist the bike and go through the motions of reclaiming eBay fees, contacted me, I paid in cash. Hence the bike ain't in my feedback and the message I delete them.
