Hi,I used a procircuit cr500 pipe cut it into alot of parts and welded it back together......i tried to buy the service honda pipe but they kept telling me they dont have stock and to keep trying them......what am i suposed to do email them daily?????I figured by the time they came good i could have built 100 pipes myself :)

i found a spare head up in the loft amongst a bunch of kx and cr500 engines so i gave the old decomp thing a try....I used an auto decomp unit off a victa lawn mower...Its not pretty but man it dumps some air out of it....and its auto....i will work on a more tidy version when i have time

another thing i noticed was the original stand was rubbish....i cut the original pipe out and used material with a thicker wall
kxpegger:
Nice work! We need a ride report 8-)

thanks for the kind words....Ive dressed up the head and i dont its TOO obtrusive!I will connect a vac line to pull it closed.....I will be making a large alloy tank in the next few weeks when my new bossing mallets turn up....my old ones have done a few too many klms!I will be hand beating it on a tree stump out of a sheet of 1.6mm alloy....i can upload pics if you guys are interested :)
