On my last NTV i discovered that the Honda africa twin down pipes fit the NTV (the same engine just chain drive) so i tracked down a set of down pipes at my local bike breakers and fitted them.
A few modifications are needed before it will fit, remove the heat sheild mounts so they clear the frame rail is one, the other is an appearance issue.
The exit of the down pipe may look a little high so you might want to re-angle it.
Here is a picture of the finished job (didnt take any pictures of the job as i was doing it unfortunatley)
Now the reason for placeing this is that i have been asked a couple of times about it and i am in the process of doing the same mod and am taking pictures as i go.
Here is a set of Africa twin down pipes, chosen for the fact that they come with a 2 into 1 joint as stock and will fit the NTV.
I attacked the heat shield mount bolts with a socket and they snapped so that saved me a small job but still needed to remove the mount itself.
This was done with a flap wheel mounted to Mr Angle grinder.
