yup, it's a goer. there is a chap in Mother England who is reproducing the horseshoe exhaust for the GL1000. his website explains the process, and he is road testing one as we speak. well, road testing the powder coat he is using instead of paint. it is rated to a very high temp, but he is testing it just the same. :moped: :moped:
i spoke to him the other night, and .... well.... he is a stickler for detail. I LIKE THIS MAN..... :music: :music:
at the moment he is finalizing the tooling to roll the polished tailpipe to be as close to original as possible. :good:
so, i am in, i want one. maybe two... and a spare one.... :yahoo:
seriously, i have emailed them to be in line, subject to a final price ( not cheap ) and shipping charges. now, i know that the US market is unlikely to support this product. parts in the US are very plentiful and cheap. but he is aiming at the UK and EU market and believe me, he will do very well. his company has been stamping car parts for almost thirty years , catering to the classic cars,
price for the muffler ( he thinks ) will be around 750 pounds. ( approx 1500 AU ) here is a link to his site, showing the process and other products. https://www.nhcpanels.co.uk/index.php
