BTW that is standard expansion chamber (note the weld joints).

Cone pipes are made from dozens of bands of metal, so there would be a lot more weld joints running the length of the pipe. Some of the recent "cone pipes" are fakes..meaning they take a standard welded pipe and then run some non-functional beads to make it "look" like a cone pipe.

Here's the real deal:




Here's the fake cone pipe:



And finally what you have on your YZ (standard pipe)

Well the bike definitely needs a bath but this kid scored it for $500. The previous owner looped it pretty good years ago which explains the drop down cafe bars and mashed throttle assembly.

It looks like a team bike, but most of the cylinders weren't done by Noleen.

Should've found this a little earlier, I know where there was a full graphics kit and seat.
