I'm looking at getting a Clarkes pipe bender myself, can I bend exhausts on it as well frame tubing?

Haven't tried. I guess so, though you'd probably have to space the rollers out to their furthest setting, to give as gradual a bend as possible, which would hopefully stop the tube kinking. It'd be very easy to crush exhaust tube so you'd need to practice & see just how much pressure you can put on it.
Try it & let us know!

I tried a bit of exhaust pipe in mine, it destroyed it  Shocked need to use either a spring shoved up it or fill with sand/lead.
