I picked these up from Redline in Yorktown, Va (won them off of ebay). The guy told me what they were but I can't seem to remember. I put them on Saturday afternoon and they sound great ;D. Their a little banged up but I got a great price on them. I just would like to know the name of them. Thanks in advance.

Hmmm...could be...but that is not what he said...I guess I should contact him again.

My guess is also just modified stock cans.  Looks like he took the stock ones and cut them down a lot and just made that name plate from the sections that was cut off - since the stockers come with 'ducati' stamped on them just like that.  All he had to do was cut it out and rivet it on.  It's a DIY job, not something from another manufacturer

I'm curious too - what did the seller list them as?  And if you want to share, how much was this?

Man I need to stop drinking beer and getting on ebay [drink].  It says right there clear as day [bang]:

"This is a pair of used custom Ducati monster exhausts. The cans on these were cut short to enhance the sound and performance. Total retail for these two parts is $1671.68 new and we have other used ones for you to check out. Don't let this pass you by!"

I paid $102.50...They sound cool so I guess I should be really happy.

    :o  $1671.68 new,

If you like the way they sound, that what it is all about..!!   [thumbsup]

"$1671.68 new" is accurate.  If you went to a Duc shop and asked them to price a set of the OEM cans they are about $800 each give or take.  Of course we know that not market price, since a pair of OEM cans in basically new condition will only fetch about $100 on ebay. 

Oh well.  YOu saved some considerable hassle on doing the cutting yourself, so that's worth something.  I say give them a sanding, hit them with a new coat of high temp paint and enjoy

They even have the US noise compliance stamping on them.  Cored, shortened stock cans.
