Title: Cb250k down pipes
Post by: Fenderfreak on April 16, 2018, 04:20:39 PM

Anyone know if other models down pipes will fit my 71 CB250K3?

Having difficulting locating a set, mine are beyond repair as corrosion has left pits the size of the Grand Canyon.

Ta!

Any pipes from CB250K/350K0 to K4 will fit but early pipes had a thinner flange at the head which fatigued so they were beefed up on later models. This means that the collets are different between early & late.. Down-pipes and silencers are rare for these bikes in the UK due to our climate and no repros for the down-pipes. I have a few but I really need to keep them for my own bikes.

Loads in the States fairly cheap  but shipping is expensive plus import duty.

This guy in Germany is a good bet...worth a try. (Germans also had a B4 which had front disc brake but same pipes)

This is a brilliant search string (took a bit of sussing) but you have to use a third party bidder,unless you have 'friend'in Japan  ;)  If you are using Google Chrome ..right hand click to translate to English.On LHS of page select 'New arrivals' for latest listings.

You also get some bargains on this German eBay small ads. site. Most seem to ship to the UK if you ask nicely !

The stuff is out there if you look worldwide .. sadly UK stuff usually =overprice junk  .... IMHO nowadays.
