Unfortunately the answer for you is not much.  Used aftermarket exhausts usually sell on here for around $100 which makes the stock exhaust worth much less.  The biggest problem with the stock exhaust is since it is a one piece unit it is expensive to ship (aftermarket units usually split into 2 pieces).  If you could find someone local (or willing to pay the shipping) you might get $30-50 for it if it is in good shape.  I have 2 stock exhaust systems taking up garage space that I couldn't give away for free on craigslist, I hope you have better luck unloading yours   :thumb:

By the way, what part of B-more are you?  I'm up in Towson.

While I agree with  BaltimoreGS I would try to hold onto it, or at least put it on Craigs List for pickup only. It's nice to have spare parts in the event of unforseen issues.

JB848 has a good point.  Since you probably won't get much for it you'd be better off holding onto it if you have the space.  Then if you sell the bike down the road you could put the stock pipe back on the bike and get $100 on here for your aftermarket one.

A stock header with a smooth shallow cut at the flare removing the can is worth a lot more than all stock exhaust. The headers only are easier and cheaper to ship and heck you could put that as a added option wiht the sale.

Yea anywhere from free to 50 bucks I'd guess. I paid 15 to ship one from 2 states away ... pipe was free in my case, but you dont have to be bound by my way of doing things.

Cool.

Well at the risk of being classified as a pack rat I keep a lot of things that most people don't. But then again I use more things then most people do. If you look at some of my posts I have used things that I organized and stored for years for current applications. I am constently reminded over and over again when I throw something away that I have not touched in years within weeks I look for it thinking man I could really use it!

When I bought mine, I paid $50 for it, but drove to Jersey from MD to pick it up.  It was a bad idea b/c tolls sucked, but the guy was nice and even offered me a soda before I left.

There was one guy who cut off the can and tried to sell that cut off can for 200, if I remember saying aftermarket cans are like 300 ... few months ago ...

Or it could be on another site. I am not 100%.
