There were at least two styles of low pipe used on the Flashes. I chose the "bent" style because I liked the look and it was easier to make. I ordered a "J" pipe with an 8" CLR (I think). I used this piece from the stub to the bend under the gearbox. I then just welded a straight piece on at an angle to finish the pipe. I welded the stub on with no flange and ground and polished the weld under the shifter. Sent it for chrome and then put the nut and flange on.

I realize you are looking for ready made, however if you go custom or make some up, stainless can be used. Stainless gives you a bit of a performance upgrade since it holds the heat in like wrapped or ceramic coated headers. I think it actually might do a better job of this than either of those options.
I made these 2" pipes from some 304SS 2" x .048" wall ubends and straights.

Morning Vibrac, Just a thought, If you cut and weld a new stub, Maybe an 1" longer on Sid's pipe, That shoud clear your bit's, Cheers Bill.

Yes and I know I can take a bike and get one made I have done so 4 times so far but that's a lot of hassel and for a racing special or an Egli I am happy to do just that, however since (for once;)) I am keeping a machine 'standard', I thought perhaps someone had the jigs to produce the occasional one to correct standard racing dimensions and just 'pop it in the post' perhaps with a set for the twin as well, it would seem not.
