I am possibly interested in the headers, is the exup valve free to rotate? Also are the capheads for the valve in a good state? Only asking as the bolts "retaining" my exup valve have no heads, there is a blob of rust but not much more. Can you also please get a cost for postage and give me an idea of how much you are wanting for it? Thanks mate.
If you can't do a job properly, don't do it at all !!!
The exup valve works fine, I actually don't remember whether the bolts are broken or not. I believe they are ok as I used this pipe for a short while with the valve hooked up. I think I even serviced the valve at some point. I'll take a look tomorrow and tell you.
I looked at the valve today. It rotates freely and works as it should but the bolts are crap. One is broken off and the other two are just iron junk.
I guess I mixed up which pipe I renovated.
The valve works fine though so if you're not going to pull it apart this should work fine.
My valve works fine at the moment (or was until I decided to part overhaul the bike) but it needs be dismantled, or the little blobs of rust knocked off to take it apart. I will get a machine shop to drill out and re-tap the threads, just don't have the facilities at home to do a proper job I was hoping to get another to use until I get the one I have redone, but no bother - it is pointless having two with the same issue. Thanks in any case though

Np, I did the same work on my other pipe and it was a bitch. I welded nuts to the broken bolts and got them out. Worked fine with two but the last one had to be drilled out and re-threaded.
I have a mate who has just got a nice orig yzf 750, which I know he will be using for a couple of trackdays, can I reserve the fairing for him, will get intouch with him tomorrow and get back to you, he may want a couple of other bits as well, will let you know asap

just reading another thread, and believe you are in Sweden, I would imagine the postal charges will be very high?? for exup headers and fairing
cheers hammie
ok, have told my mate, he is interested, and was just worried about postage charges, let me know re downpipes if the other lad doesn't want them, and maybe I can go halfs on the postage with my mate
cheers hammie
