Just got a nice quality exhaust system from scrappydogscooters for gy50cc. It doesn't seems to wanna fit either the Sunny 50 or Jonway 50. Header tube appears too short? Will not fit over or under center stand....and the mount brackets are spaced right, but doubt they will reach. It comes with a large circular clamp for the muffler itself.....but no clue where it would mount. No tabs to support the 2 fender supports. Anybody installed one or have suggestions?...Thanks in advance. Pics would be well appreciated...

:welcome3: Here are pics of what I assume the exhaust is that may help you get a better response. If this isn't what you got, let us know. I have no experience with those exhausts. What I do know is a lot of the pipes for these scoots leave a lot to be desired in fit. The pipe I got from eBay had no brackets. I've heard many others report needing to make brackets. Not saying that should be the case for this one, but it wouldn't surprise me. First thing's first though, you need the header to clear before you can even worry about the rest of the brackets. Would it be possible to clearance anything to make it work? I had to cut a relief in part of my scoot to get the header on the exhaust I had to fit and clear everything. Got any pics of it as near as you can get it to fitting either way? They might help you get a better response. Sorry I don't have a real answer, maybe someone is familiar with that pipe here.

Still not sure this is gonna work. Header tube(1st half of the pipe) does not feel like it will mount....been a struggle...grrr. If that would go on...the rest of the mounting I could make brackets for...

I recently installed an identical exhaust on my Benzhou RetroStar. Fit was tight with bracket holes several mm's off, but patiently prying and tightening and it fits nice and tight. No clue what to do with the included clamp either.
Reveen's probably right, my scoot must be a small-frame. :scoot:
All-in-all I am real happy with it. I got a really nice price, it looks 5 times better than the stock BBQ black can. The header pipe had a nice 22.5 mm I.D.(well, not in the bends). It has a nice sound, like a dirtbike thumper, not as stealthy as before, but a bit more masculine-sounding.
