The change from segmented primary tubes to one piece tubes was primarily due to a change in suppliers.

There is 1 weld segement on the rear pipe, right below where the front pipe wraps around on top..
I have fitted this pipe to #361..
it does fit different in that it allows more clearance to cam/point cover.
Very Nice fit..Guess abit of Buell history as Im told the early ones are made by Supertrapp and the replacements by another vendor.
Anyhow, still for sale if some one needs a NEW header...HB
