Biker Bird Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Hi everybody my yamaha tw 125 needs a new exhaust any ideas on where i can get one and roughly how much? My garage said about £150 and it may take a while as my bike's an import, so i thought i'd ask on here coz you all know your stuff
smf_12 Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 there ebay obviously, or try bikebreakers.info £150 doesnt sound to bad tbh, akrapovic to an aftermarket system, but you will be looking at like 3 times the price of the stock exhaust, and i honestly dont think it will be worth it.
Biker Bird Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 It might be more expensive than i thought my garage looked at my exhaust and said it is in a bad state,i also need a new chain and new exhaust for it to pass its mot and its going to cost me £400 in total inc mot and labour, seems a bit steep!
smf_12 Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 chain and sprocket set for £35.25 here... http://shop.wemoto.com/index.dyn?oid=2147683 cant find an exhaust online apart from the povic which is £400. if i was you id get the stock one for £150 and change it yourself. or try another garage in the area.

Is it a 1 or 2 part exhaust - if so is it only on part that has 'gone'? that might help you a bit on cost - but fleabay or bikebreakers are good bets unless you can get it repaired. Good luck
Biker Bird Posted August 20, 2008 Author Posted August 20, 2008 Thanks guys great help, its a one part,i knew it was knackered as it was starting to sound like a boy race's car exhaust! bikebreakers is great! got one ordered i just hope its ok but the chap sounded genuine so we'll see....
