Hunting around for a cheap alternative to replacing the forthcoming Suzuki GN250 exhaust (nicely rotten and held together with bandages and Jubilee clips) with something other than a genuine OE system, which costs 250 quid or something. The GN has a 4-valve head, and one header pipe comes out from each valve, and then they siamese into a single silencer. Harrow's London Suzuki Centre (Derek Loan that was) sucks teeth and asks: "Are you any good at Airfix kits?" <fx: scents bargain, nose starts twitching, wallet flutters in sympathy> "Erm, ye-ess........" "Well, we've got an American spec two-into-two system, which won't actually fit UK models unless you make up some extra brackets. It's just one complete pipe each side." Sounds exactly like a Honda CB250RS system, then. "You can have it for a hundred quid. I'm looking at it right now...." Sorted. All I need to do now is rummage through my Big Bin of Buggered Brackets, and so far it's never failed me - it even got a rack attached (more or less) to the old MZ TS150.....
