Cool Best Aftermarket Exhaust Options???

Hi, looking to purchase a new cat-back exhaust system, existing one is rusted out. I am having a problem finding them for 1998 D1 LE. Thanks for any help!

Well, thanks everyone for your help. I ended up going with an NRP SS Exhaust from Rovers North. I'd tell you how it sounds, but that wouldn't be fun.

Late to the party not following this foeum for a long time, on several bike forums (R90s BMW's, 850 Nortons, Matchless, 12 bikes collection) as the 95 D1 with 5-speed has been trouble free.24 years ownership and counting DIY maintenance after making it what LR should of built years ago.

With exhaust with OEM being too restrictive, expensive and heavy a rusting turd system. After port matching the factory exhaust manifolds (ported out also an improvement) to the heads already port matched and cleaned up, replaced the POS flat & round Cats with MagnaFlow's 94305 Cats.
"After Cats or Cat Back" installed Bolra's Cat Back stainless System back in 2001 and never looked back.

One "hickup", the Borla muffler rattled like full of 3/8" nuts. They had a known production fault issue issue which with Borla "their lifetime 1,000,000 mile free replacent".
A big NO! about replacement muffler by the son of Borla, a POS in my book telling me I "found a junkyard muffler with warranty card, "he could make 1,000 of them off the printer".I was told.Hell I have the original credit card purchase billing along with the performance shop backing up purchase billing for me.

After five months dad happened to answer the phone one morning, boy was he pissed at his son.
I had to purchase a new muffler, send in old muffler to get a credit card billing zeroed out after "dad inspected another claim of their defective muffler".
Sounds and runs great vs the dead weight factory rubbish exhaust. Was running a 4.6 litre now out to 4.9 litre, chip & cam along with other intake mods waking up now a fun beast to drive. Intake and plenum extensions I machined out along with 4-hole Bosch injectors, made a matched set that flow within 3/4% all eight. Now "too clean" with Kalifornia's **** smog "STAR ONLY" testing.
Good pick going stainless.......Stirring the stick is when the Borla exhaust rumble makes me smile.......~~=o&o>.......
