I have read a ton of these oddball one off pipes exist. Looking forward to putting it on and seeing how it does. Does anyone have insight of low end or high rev pipe? I am not knowledgeable on telling by the diameter in reference to location.
Although I’m new to the forum, I’m not new to 3-Wheels!
1985-ish

I'm no pipe expert by any means and could be WAY off. I'm guessing that maybe it's a low to mid range pipe. That's just a guess by looking at the shape and comparing it to bikes and quads like the TRX250R.
Ok it looks like what’s near the head appears stock press. The cone section looked to be done pretty well. The last half is cobbed up and looks ruff in condition. I would avoid this pipe from experience that’s no needle in the haystack, IMO.
Could be a Factory Honda Works Pipe.....

* HPATC Yamaha RD350 "Big Moe" Trike *
If a works pipe got busted up behind the tire by a log or something, wouldn’t you try to salvage anything you could? Never know...
Kinda looks like a Bills pipe.

I got it today, it actually doesn’t look bad in my opinion. I’ll clean it up and post better pics.

For anyone interested, I ran this pipe yesterday. It fit perfect. It ran 1 gear higher compared to OEM, and was more lean. After tuning, it ran pretty good, it blew through 1st / 2nd in soft dirt and was a good third gear cruiser when riding on my own (12/39 gearing). I typically ride with my daughter though (Can-Am DS250) and she is a cautious rider vs. aggressive.
With stock pipe, I could cruise in 2nd and keep the R’s up, shift to 3rd for a good Braaap... With this pipe, 2nd was too high, and 3rd was too low. BUT, when riding on my own, 3rd was perfect, it was in a happy medium that left enough room to gag it for a quick shot, and shift to 4th to open her up.
Next test will either be a Bills or ESR ATC5.

This pipe turned out to be a Coleman’s, it auctioned on eBay for $150 with the maker being unknown. The guy who won it knew what he was bidding on though, and was stoked to get it.

Cleaned up well, those pics were ruff. Tail end must have been solid. Coffmans? $150 that’s about right in the ballpark of what I’d expect eBay to bring all restored looking fresh. Nice
