February 2, 2009 at 11:44 pm #57411RadarModeratorUPDATE:
A number of breakers and exhaust suppliers have been contacted all without success. I got outbid on a complete FZ on ebay, but I only want downpipes not another complete bike, so not too bothered. I am tracking a XJ600 4 into 1 system on ebay for £65 with P&P but that looks a bit tired to be honest. This weekend I will try and get to a couple of local sheet metal companies and see what can be done with my existing downpipes. Might even have new ones made using the knackered ones as a pattern
I will keep you posted
February 13, 2009 at 9:13 pm #57412RadarModeratorWell the exhaust headers went into surgery at Sheet Metal Services of Kidderminster today. I will let you know how they get on.
E1cranker on here might have an XJ600 4 into 1 up for grabs too and I have just locted another XJ system in Worcester

Its a tough op and they are battling to save my downpipes life as I type…I should get them back Thursday. I will have the world’s first downpipes made from welding rod and old bean cans!

February 27, 2009 at 8:15 pm #57420RadarModeratorThe down-pipes are back from the sheet metal shop and looking very welded…
