WTD; Jardine high exhaust with mid pipes for Superhawk
WTD; Jardine high exhaust with mid pipes for Superhawk, carbon or aluminum I don't care, hoping to get the full kit (do they come with spacers for the passenger foot pegs?) Any leads appreciated, I hate the exhaust I have on my bike now...

They're certainly getting harder to come by as time passes as they haven't been made in awhile now. I've sold a bunch of them over the years and as you requested your best bet is a wanted post on here or to get lucky finding a set on ebay. I saw someone post a craigslist add for a set of Jardines not too long ago, so a nationwide craiglist search is also a possibility. Only thing on ebay now is a boogered pair of Jardine mufflers without the midpipes. What do you have on there now and curious why you hate them?

Since they're getting harder to come by you may also need to get creative. Superhawks for sale with exhausts pop up a lot more often than just the exhausts themselves, so you also have nothing to lose by offering to buy the exhaust off the bike someone is selling. I'd be prepared to have something decent to swap out with them though (at least a nice set of stock mufflers). Use the angle that the exhaust basically does squat for the value of the bike anyway, and it's a good way for the seller to either make a few extra bucks or once sold be able to drop the price of the bike they're selling a bit (since you just payed for the exhaust) and possibly sell it faster. Again you have nothing to lose. Most will probably not be interested but I have bought aftermarket parts that way before.

Yeah good idea, I have asked couple guys but haven't found a seller who wanted to deal with a muffler swap yet. The low aluminum Two Brothers are on it now, I don't like how they look low and they are too loud. love how the jardine's look and am I wrong that the longer high pipe with the Jardines might be a tad quieter?

There is a set on my local craigslist... Well, not exactly next door. About 1:45 away from me.
Where are you located?

In my experience the Jardines are not any quieter than the TBR exhausts. If your TBR's are really loud they probably need repacking, it is a maintenance item that needs doing every so often... When you buy a used set more than likely they too will need repacking....

Thanks so much guys for the info. Yeah the sound of the TBR is cool just too loud, so I'll look into repacking them, have done that on others before so not afraid of that project. I do like the look of the high Jardine set up, maybe I can find high mid pipes and mounts that could work for these Two Brothers and just repack them? I don't think I've ever seen high TBR so not sure if mid pipes that would work are made for them….I do like the deep sound….Wolverine, bt 'WTD' I meant 'wanted'
I did contact that guy with the used Jardines a while ago, he absolutely will not ship them, not a super friendly guy I'm in California….

Two Brothers did make high mounts. Your mufflers would be the same and if you could find them you'd need the high mount midpipes and hangers. Unlike Jardine and some others, TBR's did not come with the longer bolts or spacers to move your passenger pegs out to allow them to clear the mufflers, but if you're creative that can be fixed. Another option I've played with in the past is to use high mount hangers with low mount slip ons and rotate the midpipes and cans up to get an RC51 style "low to high" look.

I've got a set of Jardines, high mount and I was able to piece together longer bolts and spacers to keep the passenger pegs. I bought them from Captainchaos about two years ago. They've been on the bike for about 5k miles. Let me know if you're interested. I haven't moved the bike in about 4 months so they're not doing me any good.

Agree with captainchaos, the two brothers do have a better deeper sound, especially the carbon fibers!!
Now, high mounts are good, but I personally like the swept up look as the RC51, kinda becomes high mount, there for I did it with low mounts, twisting the left side upwards at the connection point and right side clockwise at the connection point as well, with couple brackets I made from aluminum to relocate the rear footpegs, everything falls right into place naturally, it also tacks in the exhaust tips.

That looks great NHSH, nice job. Yeah I do like the deep sound I am getting with the aluminum TB exhaust, I will probably repack them to quiet them just a BIT and look for the high/medium mid pipes. Do you guys know if I absolutely need the Two Brothers higher mid pipes to work with my Two Brothers exhaust or will other brands of higher mid pipes work? I am ok with customizing spacers/extensions for the pass. foot pegs myself, of course it would be nice to find a kit...
