OK got it ...They ARE expensive that’s why I’m trying to determine if they are original nos mufflers.

Thanks I would like to see those pictures.I think you can still buy one left side NOS muffler for about US$700. I don't think the right side NOS is available anywhere.
Be careful that you don't get ripped off by paying "NOS" prices for an aftermarket advertised as a NOS.
As mentioned above the NOS has the part number stamped near the rear end. I will take a photo maybe tomorrow.
I believe the bike has original mufflers on it but rusted out, there is no stamp/part number on them. Does anyone have originals on their bike with a stamp/part number that they could share a picture of?

My factory mufflers are off of my bike right now, I was looking all over for some sort of number or factory stamp, I couldn’t find any.
...The numbers are stamped on the top inner side near the tyre...
Thanks for the pictures TXXS, That is definately the parts number for the right side muffler, the box and stamp on the muffler confirms that it is an original muffler. From TwoManyXS1Bs post I wonder if Yamaha shipped bikes with unstamped mufflers but supplied stamped replacement mufflers. We would have to know the history of his bike the chain of ownership back to the original purchase to really know for sure. I guess the question remains, how can you tell if the mufflers are original.I think you can still buy one left side NOS muffler for about US$700.
