exhaust pipe size

Hello all,

Does anyone know if the size of the end of the exhaust pipe where the muffler connects is a 1 or a 1.5 inch?

So just to clarify, the muffler would be a 1 3/4" I.D?

The stock OEM muffler is actually a metric size and fits over a pipe with a 1 3/4" OD loosely.  

I could not use the Stock muffler gasket on my Harley Dyna muffler, it was too fat.  The Harley muffler fits on a peice of 1 3/4" muffler pipe I got at Auto-Zone very nicely.... but I needed a thin sheet of Aluminun on the Suzuki header to fill the gap (Aluminum was thicker that paper but thinner that a credit card)

So.....  stock header pipe is real close to 1 3/4"  OD but is smidgen smaller.   The Stock Muffler is bigger than 1 3/4" ID because it uses a gasket.

If you are replacing the header, and want to use the stock muffler (but why? Huh ) you may need to do something to the stock gasket to fit over the 1 3/4" OD  pipe (sandpaper???)

1 3/4 inch it is then thank you. My screamin eagle muffler discolored because of a leak even with the aluminum. My exhaust tip has three segments, each one thicker as you move back. The very tim is 1 3/4, the next is 1 5/8, and the thickest is I dont know because I dont have a caliper. Freakin weird eh?
