Default Flexible exhaust pipe?

I remember seeing exhausts on motorcycles years back that appeared as if the headers coming off the motor flexible. Am I dreaming, cant seem to find anything on the web.

I think the flexible pipe is only a cover that fits over the stock header pipe.Saw a guy running them recently on a Heritage, gave the Bike a classic look for sure. They're available over this side of the pond from W&W part no. 73-070 fit over 1-3/4 inch pipes and are 30cm (1 foot long)

Man, I just dig that look, doghair! It would be cool if you could get the same look in dual fishtails.

That is a puzzler. I guess they want to capture the Harley knock offs, but not the Harleys - lol!
