I wish I had that pipe! I'm hoping/dreaming just like all the rest of you guys. Stay tuned, I'll keep everyone updated if I get my hands on anything.
Taz, from you I might want a 44mm piston/ring set. How would I go about acquiring that?

Shop in Japan that lists Gyro expansion chamber...
Then convert the Yen price to dollars.

And the shop does not respond to email requests, website has been inactive for many months...
Price of $460. Plus tax & shipping to my contact in Japan. Plus paypal fees, Plus shipping to USA.
Da-mn exchange rate. Few years back this would have been a $300 item. Its not just this pipe, its all the Japan market items. Wheel adapters, wide tires, all the prices are extreme.
But I did see a site with custom Gyros selling for$6-8000 US dollar equivalent. Go figure.

If your Japan connect can get those motors for swaps, that would be the sweetest evar!

I would love to do wha t myspree did and hit 42 mph. That would frekin awesome. My friend ha s a wimpy metropolitan. I can hit 35 and cruise at 30easily. when we take off i can pull out front pretty easily until about 25. Then he just catches me because he can go faster. Not because of power. If i had that kind of acceleration. That would be great.

Hydro formed pipe? With an inside stinger. Nice work!
Did you make it from scratch or adapt it from something else. It looks vaguely familiar.

90's Jogs, Dios, Ruckus, and Zuma sell for $14,000 out here in Japan. No joke from a used dealership with a warrenty. It is rediculously expensive.
