You don't  need a really  expensive tester if all you are looking for is a drop in compression on one pot. Personally, given the symptoms, i would eliminate this before delving elsewhere.

Have you done a compression test? Without and with a squirt of oil down the bores

Folks,

I have found another source for the headers. Indications are these are the same as the Yamiya ones except initial calculations indicate that i will be able to offer these at £310. With the silencer priced at £250, a complete set would be £560. I think this is an excellent price even for single headers.

Any takers? I don't think the headers will remain at this price for long.

Nothing gets past you James  ;)

Dave I am interested in a silencer at least; if the headers are double skinned then possibly them too.

Tom, I can fly the silencers in for £250 inc VAT. Back order date from Yamiya is end of next month though.

I have confirmation that the headers are single skinned.

If I'm not mistaken the market price can be determined here:

I have the quote back from Yamiya. For the headers and silencer only by air from Japan (3-4 days), I can do £675 + VAT (£810 inc VAT). Some saving can be made by placing a shipping order, but i need to know how many genuine buyers there are before i can determine if this is worthwhile or not. I will come back shortly on the double skinned question.

.......... and I thought you guys were supposed to be good .....  :)

Did attempt a photo this morning, but only had a small compact camera to hand, and it didn't show the dent very well, so thought I'd ask anyway.  Given the lack of working crystal balls this morning, I will endeavor to get a decent image up this afternoon for your kind perusal and advice.

In the mean time, I hope you balls start working soon Bitsa.

Chinese Andy

Did you get the replacement ok Andy?

Well nobody's chipped in with a landed price to the UK inc. VAT
So here is the simplistic Ashimoto estimate.

If they do end up being decent quality inc double skinned headers then  eat your heart out the likes of bikepusher  on eBay with their 'Worth 1500GBP 'all day long' asking prices for NOS systems.


750K0 No.No. Yamiya exhausts 165000 Yen= 1338 GBP inc landed in UK
400/4 Downpipes Yamiya 52000 Yen  converts to 52/165 x 1338 = 421 GBP
400/4 Silencer Yamiya 28000 Yen convert to 28/165 x 1338 = 227 GBP

Downpipes & silencer = 648 GBP

Well done on the maths Ash, hopefully you wont be too far off. I have asked Yamiya for a quote this morning, including clamps.
One thing to factor in is the shipping method from Japan. If there is enough interest and people are prepared to wait I can book a part container load by sea. This usually works out 1/3 to 1/2 the price of air freight. Anyone who is seriously interested please PM me as soon as possible.

BTW I still have one CB750K0 set remaining if anyone is interested, it is unlikely i will be ordering more for a while.

Dave
