    I am looking for somebody who manufactures exhausts for my bike. Mine is only very slightly flattened but the bottom section, near the frame tubes, had been pushed back so that it is hard against the frame. I haven't been able to find any body locally who can forcibly pull it forward back to it's original position and I am thinking of just replacing the whole chamber.

    I have written to Dynaport but I don't know if they are even still operating. Does anybody know a reliable company who make pipes for the late '80s bikes.
    Many thanks in any help.

    typically you can have a pipe repaired
    it just looks repaired if it was in really bad shape

    oh and by the way all 400 and 430 pipes from a water cooled model will fit
    auto makes no difference
    an 85 pipe will work but the mounts from 85 are rotated but you can get the frame mount or make your own easily
    it is a strap and easily made

    Dynoport is slow to respond sometimes
    my brother contacted them about a sparky for an older KTM
    they just got back to him today
    they are making it now

    Thanks for the replies. I can get the small dents blown out easily but the problem is that the pipe has been pushed back against the frame tubes.
    Everything fits the mounts etc but it is twisted and needs to be forcibly pulled forward away from the bottom tubes. I don't know how the previous owner did the damage.
    I just thought that it would be easier to buy a whole new pipe than trying to find somebody who knows what they are doing.

    I will keep looking and maybe I will get lucky.

    I have had a reply from Dynaport regarding prices etc. I have asked them to send me pictures, if possible, so that I can make a final decision about which pipe I like.
    They are the only company that I know about that makes and sells pipes.
    If somebody knows of other manufacturers please chip in.

    Is Dynoport selling 430 WRLC pipes or 430 AE pipes ?

    I have 2, the Dyno port pipe for a 1987 430WR in natural and in Ceramic.

    As far as I know Rich only sells the WR pipe not the AE pipe. The only difference is the Dyno port is tuned for more low end.

    Dyno Port makes a Very nice pipe!

    Rich told me, if I read his reply correctly, that they make 1 pipe for all the LC 430s - wr,xc, ae, and cr.
    I reckon that a standard 430 pipe will quite happily fulfill my needs - I am getting too old to need the extra low end of the ae pipe.
    Are Dynaport pipes stamped steel or cut-cones? Husqvarna-parts is advertising a cut-cone 1984 LC 400 pipe and it looks VERY sexy.

    Both, from the exhaust port to about midway it's Stamped then changes to cone.
