Aha! all is revealed. What's with the split pipes? Is there a power advantage thats worth running 2 exhausts? I'm fascinated. Jerry

Im pretty sure the article in VMX says that they used a 2 muffler system as they could get the noise quieter than with one muffler. Hopefully i remembered correctly. Its in issue 19.

I'm pretty sure the 510 Husky had two exhaust ports like a Honda XR/XL?
