Hi Steve.
Yes, I always wondered about the exhaust, too. I didn't realise it was for dampening down the noise. I thought it might be some sort of snorkel for going through deep fords or something.

I agree with Steve, thank you for the article and the photo of the intriguing exhaust. Will we see you out on the trails on it?

That would be a real hoot!
Sadly it's not my bike, and I'm not sure if my creaky knees would be up to it anyway.
Hey ho.
