Identify help: Yoshimura exhaust

Can some one please tell me if this is in fact a yoshimura exhaust for a cb550?
What is a fair asking price for this system? Thanks

It was an impulse buy, and I thought it was a yoshi, but the can back looked a little unusual like it was missing a bend.
Any idea what the going price is right now, the guy I bought it from said that it was brand new.

Thanks SteveD, but I had read that post prior to posting this.  Most of what you see is for the 750, and I don't know how much of the information pertains to the 550. 
Do these appear to be the old hand bent pipes, or are they later models that are still being produced today? I know that they don't make yoshis for the 750 any longer.

Jimmy, that's a meek excuse

I need them for my racer, so I'm first on the line.

Gosh, would give a leg for a set
