What to do with stock exhaust?

I recently put the Arrow system on along with some other mods and love the new stuff. My question now is what to do with the stock exhaust?

Is it worth anything to anyone? If so, how much are they going for? Given the unbelievable weight of it, I'm guessing shipping would be the most expensive part!

Thanks for any feedback you might have; I'd love to have the space back in my garage.

Dude just keep it. If you ever go to sell or trade in Speedy put the stock back on it. You'll get jacked if you try to sell your bike with the mods on it. REALLY.....you won't get much more, if anything at all, for selling your bike with all the mods on it....trust me with 9 bikes later! Return it to stock and THEN sell it. Sell the mods in here or on Ebay and make money that way.

At the very least they'll serve as back up if you ever crash and ruin the aftermarket can(s).

I agree with dblhelx, definitely keep it. If your taste changes and you want to get back to stock you will kick yourself for selling it. Plus they are selling on ebay for less than a hundred...

Agreed. I have the stockers and the TORs laying around. I don't know why I still have the TORs.

I was just debating the same thing, except in relation to my TORS. I have an Arrow 3-1-2 half system on it's way right now, and was considering putting my TORS on eBay (which only have about 2000 miles on them). I bought my bike from the dealer with TORS already installed, so I never had the stock exhaust. It's a good point to keep all of your stock parts, as it's often easier to sell (or trade) your bike in stock form. Working at a car dealer, I see people losing money on their trades all the time becuase of mods, even when done well. Even if you sell your bike privately, people often assume a modded bike has been beaten on more than a stock bike. Keep you stock parts for when you sell it.
