:shock: :shock: Not a bad price! And I like the end cap design. What about jetting requirements?

I would call Bill on that. They are little different from the other 2 companies that make them.

We're lucky guys to have fellows like Bill who provides interesting aftermarket and OEM parts and Louis who can supply just about anything one needs for these old cycles. Sure wish someone did the same for the GB500!!

Very nice, Louis!!

They say 'chrome' so I assume no stainless anywhere?

The muffflers look straight as an arrow, with no curve to them at all?

I suspect you'll sell a bunch of them at that price

What do you need? I have a little stash. I may be the largest dealer of used GB500 parts in the world :D :D
Many parts are still available from Honda. I bought a new front fender 3 years ago. Many non-cosmetic parts are identical to the XBR500 sold in Europe and available at Honda dealers there. GB400 sold in Japan and "down under" also shares many many parts, even sheet metal. All you need is a friend living or traveling there.
Let me know about your pains, maybe I can help! 8)

Very nice looking pipes. I especially like the fact that they appear to be real 6 - 6 instead of 6 - 2 - 6, although I do not know what effect that will have on performance.

Any chance of a sound clip?

Those have huge openings but the one's Bill has for sale have tiny openings. There has to be a difference in the sound. What is needed is a bike with sound capability to follow one through the gears... 8)
