Considering a repro set of stock exhaust on my build. I see that Z1 enterprises has them for $1250.00. Price has come down quite a bit in the last few years. Anyone used these on their builds?


Thanks

I have a mint set that came with my bike that are still in the box. I have heard that some of these can be a little finicky to fit. Are the pipes the same for all of the H2 models on that site? Or different for H2A, H2B & H2C?

What year is your bike? I might be willing to part with these as i am not gonna be using them.

As far as I know, they are only available for H2/A..but they are nice. I have an early H1 set and they are really nicely made.

If I remember correctly rb said someone in the UK was reproducing them and he thought they were better quality than the Doremi set. I'm sure it's on his website somewhere.

The '72 / '73 sets are the 2nd generation made by DOREMI, these are a lot better than the first batch that had inconsistency issues and a middle pipe that fouled the frame. The H2b / c systems are silencers only and are made by a guy in England - SUPERB quality but being a One man band and all hand made, he has a 2 Month waiting list, price is around $1,800 but they are worth it and as they are not mass produced I don't see that the price will ever come down.

Are you referring to John Bartholomew in the UK offering handmade H2B/C reproductions? I'm on his list too but don't know when I will be up.
