Title: help please exhaust systems
Post by: neat street on December 17, 2013, 06:14:31 PM: Hi All
I am having great difficulty getting an exhaust system for my 1976 F1, I tried Motad, but they no longer make one for this model. Anyone got any suggestions please.

many thanks

Sorry just noticed this is in the 750 category. I was talking about a 400 4.

Don't know whether this info is of any use but just reading January 2014 Classic Motorcycle Mechanics (page 97) and there's an advert for Motad saying they are going to make batches of 4 -1 exhausts in stainless for various Jap fours based on the number of customer enquiries they get - don't know whether they've changed policy since you have been in touch? Thought it worth mentioning anyway. Motad number in advert is 01922 714700.

Many thanks again for your help.
