Ron is restoring and planning to race his old road racer. He has a beat-up set of road racing pipes. He wants someone to copy them so he has a nice new set just like the beat up ones were when they were new. Although he tried, it did not work out with Jemco. I talked to him about it, but I had to bow out because of the waiting list I have, and the fact that he needs someone who can start reasonably soon.

I'm hoping that someone, maybe one of the racers here, either drag or road, will recommend a custom pipe builder to help him.

there are a few companies out there that specialize in custom 2 stroke sled pipes.... I would assume they could copy your pipes for you. Jaws is one that I can think of. Reason I thought of the sled world is that they might not be that busy this time of year.

Try Dave at D&D chassis, he does some really nice work. He built a set for me a couple of years ago and they were a work of art. I wouldn't mind helping out but I'm still learning and so far they work but no one will call them pretty.

From the old board...might fit the bill for you. Contact Walms here or on the Triples Canada board.
