Is there a difference between MK1 and MK2 exhaust?

 

The MKII's had the turn down spouts because of the saddlebags, the MKI is strait out. I think there wouldn't be any issue besides the cosmetics of the spring retaining clip on a set of MKII pipes.

Mounting flag on top of exhaust is different location for one.

Gary, Can you please explain in a little more detail. Did you mean to type "flange" vice flag. I am wondering why my right side muffler doesn't seem to go on the collector very far. If I push it on further, the mounting hole doesn't line up with the mount on the passenger floorboard. Would this the effect of my right side muffler being a MKI when it should be a MKII?

Reason I say they are different is I put passenger floorboards on my 83 (frame at this point) that came from an MKII. I had to put an 'adapter' on to get the muffler hanger(flange I called it before) to line up.

 

This was about a 3 inch difference, so I doubt that is your problem.

 

Drawing of adapter attached. And a picture or two.
