Bryanj:
Just to eventually answer one of your first questions, must have missed this post, the original exhausts were one piece but you could buy at one time pattern silencers that looked the same and slid over the original front pipe.
Curing an exhausr leak at the original joint will probably be difficult, possibly carefully packing with exhaust past may work

Pretty sure they were two piece Bryan i.e. not welded together ( like the 1st CB250K0 ones) ... they were held together by a crimped band.

That's a rare bike ... Lord knows why Honda UK only sold a few dozen even though it was in their brochure. 5-speed gears and twin carb head sought after by CB92 owners.

Thanks Bryan,

I did wonder if something like that may be a possibility, I also came across JB Weld High Heat whilst looking for a solution, I did think that might even be a possibility? I haven’t done anything with it yet, I doubt I’ll get too many chances, so it’s still getting a good thinking about.

I have been trying to get gauge what a fair price might be for it now it’s complete and has a V5 but I can’t find any others for sale!

Spitfire:
Now that is a nice looking bike, love the style of those era bikes.

Cheers

Dennis

Laverda Dave:
Good job there 👍.
They are really nice looking bikes considering it's only a 125 with big bike features such as a TLS front brake.
Is that the same bottom end as the 160/175/200?
