              I got a set of original looking pipes made up.
              They look alot better than the 4into1 that were on.
              I can now say that i have finished





              Now to get that Katana GSX1100 started

                  Your bike looks great!
                  Can you explain a bit more about getting the pipes made. They look stock from these pics.

                    It looks stunning, what did you finally decide with the headlight? + 1 on the pipes, they look like stock.

                    Don't say can't, as anything is possible with time and effort, but, if you don't have time things get tougher and require more effort.

                      Great looking bike. I like the look with the stock pipes.

                      That is quite a collection you have there!

                          Theres a web site Zpower who sell these, I think they are in Sydney Aust.
                          Ive lost all the info on who did mine but i think they buy them through the same manufacturer.

                            Heaps of time polishing, the photo in the bike show i rode it there and home, It ****ed down raining so my wife and i had to polish it up all over again when we got there.
                            Once you get it polished up its not to bad as long as you keep on top of it.

                                Beautiful bike. Not many people would attempt a restoration to that level with what you started with. Hats off to you.
