I used this guy on eBay, £6.80 for a set of 4 plus a quid to post them, here:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290300276827
I haven't fitted them yet as I can't be certain that's where its blowing from.
Its not as easy to hear where its chuffing from in a Fury as the exhaust is enclosed.
Need to use a length of fuel hose wedge in my ear and point it at the suspect areas...

cheers, I had found him but wasn't sure if they would be ok, seemed too cheap in comparison??
Also found some on M&P(here),
Exhaust Gasket Copper 44x37x3.5mm (Product Code: 528466) £1.29 each?
WTF
Are OEM stuff so much better?

I think I found the M&P one's too but IIRC once you add the postage on the guy on ebay is cheaper.
I haven't seen the OEM Yamaha items but the ones from the eBay bloke look similar to the OEM Honda ones I bought when I had a Blackbird Fury.
