WANTED No3 header pipe
« on: July 13, 2014, 12:15:13 PM »
Does anyone have one of these (in a box,shed, loft) please?

Preferably not dented or holed...
So one that's fit for re-plating.

Thanks

Hi Clem

If you can wait a day or two until I get time toget in the garage, I'm sure I've got either a no1 or no 3 in pretty much as new condition, just can't remember which, might even be both. Anyway as soon as I get half an hour to spare I'll have a look and let you now.

cheers

Paul

Hi Clem

I've found it and its a no3, it probably is NOS but is not a shiny as it could be but I'm sure it will polish up, I'd give it at least nine out of ten, if your looking for absolute perfect then you might be better getting an old one and re-chroming, but if its going on a bike that is ridden rather than trailered everywhere then I can't see that you'd be disappointed. PM me if you need more info.

cheers

Paul

Brilliant...

The main thing is that it is the Honda OE double skin  (at the flange end at least) as these don't discolour too badly.
Could you post a pic maybe?

What would you want for it.... .?

Cheers

Simon

I've taken some photos on my phone which are too big to load here, which aren't ideal, but I won't get near a proper camera until the weekend, in the meantime if you want to PM me an email address I'll send them that way.

cheers
