Apart from price what makes your chambers better than Ricks?

Are you able to retain the centre stand?

Have you got any pics of chambers youve made for Lc?
Ant
The amount of time taken on a VERY accurate simulator spent optimising the design. Laser cut segments ensure accurate dimensions of both pipes and construction material is of a higher spec.
I usually build race/track day engine/pipe/ignitions centre stands are something I have not yet considered.
No pipcs or dyno printouts yet unfortunately.Here is a few random pics I had lying round in photobucket.

DT200 (an up pipe a real test of pipe making)

CR480 set for Dirt Track( a 450F slayer on surface with grip , digs furrows deep 100mm wide)

A favourite 74 KX450(coud have sold this bike 20 times)

All pipes have this finish

ANT, I'd definitely consider an Ally Box Swinger. At least it'd be good to find out approx how much.

Hi Ant,
I don't have Carls number.
Was he planning to put them on his 500?

I guess I can give him a try... bet he doesn't want to sell though :D

It will come straight through if its under $1k, that is the law.

Been importing a lot of Mustang bits and peices.. no issue until $1k, then its stopped every time.

Very cool Doco thanks for placing the order and covering it.

Hybrid you could give Carl a try he seems to be a Oem engine guy so he might part with them 0414627331

These are the ones I have on my 500 and two spares to go on my LC:

Not cheap at US$99 a pop, but very good quality.

Had a look at TYGA, really cheap ones (22GBP) were if you bought chambers as well.
33 GBP if you buy ally ones alone + shipping so about $150 pair landed.
Carbon / Kevlar at 78 pounds + shipping = about A$310 landed here.

Pete, I have know Borut for a long time and NEVER heard of him ripping anyone off ever. He's been always very trustworthy and 100% reliable with me. A quick look on the RD forum would probably confirm that.
When I have to transfer money o/s for cylinder plating they usualy sting me $35 on this end and a similar amount at the platers end.Why we both get charged I dunno but I wish the bank could explain the breakdown in cost to me with that :roll:
The missing 20Euros sound like a bank fee on Boruts end to me.

I'll make a file up when you get the end can. Have you got them yet? The header pipe shape of mine differ slightly and 'tuck up' a bit higher than those.
