I've accumulated four spare sets of slip-ons over the last couple of years that I have no intentions of using, so I'm in the process of trying to sell them, but.....I have one set that I have no idea who makes them, and I'm curious. I don't see anything stamped on them other than "PASO" on the mounting brackets. I can't find a name nor a model number anywhere. Here are some pictures....

I guess these are probably US made. Are the ends conical ? Wasn`t there a company called BUB having conical ends ?

The ends are kinda rounded and protruding with the exit in the middle.....I guess you may be able to call the conical. I'm kinda shocked that there isn't anything stamped on them.

I'll go with the BUBs. I have owned a few sets for Guzzis and they look like that.

"Guzzi" was a good hint.
Here a pic of BUBs on a Guzzi

Looks the same on the outlet side.....too bad my pipes aren't in better shape. If I had the time and it was worth it to me, I'd clean them up really well and paint them black....then sell them.

if you know someone with a polishing machine you could at least polish over the scratched areas. They look too deep to be totally polished away, but I think the result would still be an improvement.

I think a file and some sandpaper would do better on those spots. to hide the damage and prevent those places from rusting, painting those places silver might not be too bad of an idea, but.....I have no intentions of using them, so I'm just hoping someone else can envision them in black or silver looking good on thier bike and they aren't afraid to do a little bit of work to them.
