I've seen this pic in random places online, multiple times.
After jumping through some hoops, it turns out it's actually from this site, and belongs to Mark T!
I know he sells his own line of pipes, but I don't think that's what I'm looking at here.

I've never seen them on another Valk.
Any info on the brand?
How is the performance and sound?

Thanks,
L

Yes. If I remember correctly he made those pipes for the previous owner before he bought the bike.

Nice!
Too bad they're not for sale.
But then they wouldn't be unique.

Knowing Mark, I'm confident he could fabricate a similar set for you.  Not much is beyond his ability, it just takes time and money.  Contact the man!

They are hand-made one-offs I designed for this bike.  Unique.  Built with hand made fiberglass / SS wool  flow-through paks with a bend in them to match the stacks.  Have a crossover and are sized to egress the blown Valk.  Very little back pressure yet the volume is very civilized - not as loud as you think.  Less than $2000 even including the very pristine OEM cores (double wall headers).

I have a small box of trophies for this bike.

Not surprised about the box of trophies.
As I said, I've seen pics of this bike online over the past few years and it always catches the eye.
I didn't notice what's going on beneath the gas tank though, until you mentioned it was blown.
If you have any video of it on youtube, I'd love to see it.
