Re:New to Me Roadstar 4 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
not sure about marks, am at work and when i was reading about exhaust mods on board it clicked that mine were different, called the son and asked him to look for markings but he said he couldnt find any. Will have to look when I get home, might have to take off the heat shield and look.

Nice Bike. I guess you already know the pipes aren't stock.Black is faster.

Nope those are not the stock pipes, they look like Cobra but its hard to tell. Enjoy her and get to know her well, you will start to discover things about her that may raise some questions, no worrys these guys on this site know all about your ride.
Welcome of course from Wisconsin

Those pipes have a Vance & Hines feel to them but the bends are not the V&H Long Shots bends.

i had the same question several weeks ago about my pipes which look just like yours (no stamps, logo or anything) someone mentioned speedstar to me. i found a pic of speedstar pipes & they look just like what you & i have. in theory they're speedstar.
