I unfortunately more or less recently hijacked a thread in which 175/200 Bridgestone downpipes were the subject of the thread.
On reflection, I thought it best to take my subject to a more appropriate section of the forum, and in the process explain to everyone what I am searching for, and make the appeal if any of you have knowledge of the whereabouts of the parts I am seeking out, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Since this is about "other two strokes", I thought I'd throw this on the table in hopes that some of you 2-stroke enthusiasts might be able to help.
I'm attempting to help an Icelander who owns a Suzuki T200 (one of four in Iceland, I'm told) locate mufflers for the bike he is restoring. Needless to say, parts for anything are seriously lacking in Iceland, let alone for a nearly 45 year old motorcycle. I became acquainted with him in another forum. You can read the thread here if you have interest:
Suzuki T 200 exhausthttp://www.vjmog.com/ftopict-7462.htmlAnyway, these one piece header/muffler pipes are proving troublesome to locate. Hope some of you might have some or know of a friend, shop, salvage yard, or breaker who possibly could have some hanging up in the third or fourth room back, so to speak.
Steve Reed has a lead for me, but I'm totally open to considering
anything that may be out there and available for sale.
Here's what Björgvin is seeking:
