Obviously you've tried.
What's the hangup ?
And will they work with the engine characteristics ?

/QUOTE]

They are too long. If you hook up the front, the back is a ways off and vice versa. Don't forget, you'll need the rear cylinder down tube also. But access to a tube bender could probably solve many or all issues. I believe it's doable.

Doesn’t the RC have an oval exhaust port as well?

Hawkrider will become famous soon enoughHawkrider will become famous soon enough
I think only the '02-on had the oval ports. I might be wrong though.
