The label is information about the exhaust system.

The sd site say its from a CM400T auto as it has a chain protector built into the end of the swing arm that was later modified.
Bryanj:
Yes the label is about exhaust but i think it was only on US bikes mate
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
That explains why it's in such good condition.
AshimotoK0:
It's sounds like the 250RS swinging arm Ted... prone to bad corrosion. Luckily, on my RS the PO had worked at British Aerospace and had chromate primed and painted it with aircraft paint. Decent UK S.D. ones are rare then I would imagine. I had a '400F' one that was longer than the one on my bike and turned out it was from a CJ250 ... a friend who's bike/engineering skills I respect said ... 'Ooh can I have it for my 400' as he considered it would be an improvement on the standard one.
I would just use it as it's so nice, using a longer chain and you may even find the bushes are OK as it looks like it's from a low mileage bike.
