I was thinking the same thing, wondering if they kept the jig. You call? Price would probably be 500CDN or like 400US.

Looking as closely at that pipe as my old eyes allow.... the first 4 letters are FLOW. Flotek it is not. I posted a link to that photo on DRN to see if anyone can identify the manufacter.

1997 KX 250 chassis, 2000 KX 500 motor. Building an FMF Desert pipe, I had a Pro Circuit pipe before. I decided to go with a permanent "solution" to the coolant hose problem. I cut off the existing fixture on the side of the cylinder and had a new fitting welded onto the back of the cylinder like older CR 500's. I would probably just go around the hose if I do it again. Also since this is my hillclimb competition bike only, I did not worry about my kick starter hitting the pipe when folded in, as I will take it off after starting. And yes it does hit!!
hughes:
The hill climbers always come up with cool stuff. That exhaust pipe is trick looking, Nice welds. Wrapping the coolant hoses is a cool idea.
BigGreenMachine:
Definately going to build my pipe to go around the hose. Didn't realise this was a problem but its not a big one.
