Need an SB8R pic....

Anyone have a really good clean shot of the exhaust on an SB8R where it comes through the swing arm??? I need to see the routing in there....

Thanks...

Here is a shot taken of my SB8R that shows the U-shaped passage in the swingarm and the exhaust pipe feeding up to the split header, which then leads to the twin exhaust cans:

So the tube from the rear cylinder goes down through the arm, hooks up to the front pipe under the bike and then comes back up [as a single pipe] through the arm to a Y and then the two cans???? A'm i getting this correct???

On mine the header from rear cylinder goes through the arm and comes back up as two pipes too the mufflers, so there are three pipes going through the arm.

Here are two shots from the factory SB8R brochure. They show precisely how the exhaust is routed:
