Has anybody on this board had any experience with JL chambers, maybe some of you European guys.
I'm seriously considering buying their stainless steel version for my 74 H1.

Yes, sort of. I put a new set on my "old" 85' Yamaha RZ500 V4. Nice looking pipes with ok fit. Had crappy o-ring sealed manifolds that failed soon after install. I didn't find the performance of the pipes ground breaking by any means. I would Not recommend a set for a Yamaha product, and they'll cost you no less that 300$ per pipe plus shipping from Czechoslovakia. Do his Kawasaki pipes work any better ??? Dunno :?: Sorry for the yamaha vid, but it displays the JL pipes pretty good(with sound).

In EU JL has a good name for the TZ and RD pipes
he makes. The H2 pipes I have seen from him are very well
made but layout was weird. Sorry, no first hand info on H1-pipes.
