Ye Gods, One wonders what the cost of making these for Kawasaki would be, (I suppose the people who have had batches of replica systems made and chromed will have an idea), if they can get £4k a pop then it has to be worth their while to do a batch, surely, especially if they haven't scrapped the tooling. They'll sell themselves, unlike motorbikes, ATVs, jetskis etc which have to be marketed.The same goes with Honda and HM300's - there is currently a new lower right one on eBay for 1000 Eu. What happens if/when mine rust through I have no idea, Yamiya have a NOS set for half a bleedin million yen, about £3,800, or a scratched set for only 300k yen.
Think we are lucky with the Yamiya NoNo pipes Dave, as the are really good quality made in Japan.

True, at least I know I can get a new set for about a grand, what's the difference between the Yamiya ones and the Lotus Root pipes? (apart from the LR ones being 'not for highway use' - type approval issues? Noise?) I'm guessing, though others on here will know, that 20Kg postage from Japan costs a few quid.I suppose that as long as enough of us are using / restoring our bikes, and 'consuming' pipes that it will be worth while making them. I wonder why Honda don't see it like that.
