Re the early frame. If you look at your second picture, you'll see the pressing on the frame where it comes from behind the tool box cover.
At the point where it goes underneath the bottom corner of the tank by the tank mount, on the later frames, this part of the pressing is much wider.
Also, all of your pictures just fall short of showing the breather coming out of the top engine mount, is there one there?
I asked how was the fit of the aftermarket mufflers, were they a good fit. (no leaks)
