    Kawasaki triple peps

    I have just picked up a partially restored 73 Kawasaki s2-A 350 - does anyone nkow where you can get new fork legs (chrome) I have good bottoms.

    Also can anyone recommend a good chrome place for 2 stroke pipes? I have a sellection of old ones that require a make over.

    cheers

    S1 and S2 are basically the same bike, (bigger bore on the S2) so most of the cycle parts are interchangeable...... Possibly the S3 (400) may have used many common cycle parts.....

    otherwise, there's a poster in KB just picked up a load of spares being 'advertised' in another thread, or, go online and give Bryce an Email at Buckets and bits (Naenae, lower hutt)

    For new legs try Franks in the USA. http://www.frankmain.com/

    Rechroming mufflers - gawd good luck as the stripping will make a horrid mess of their stripping bath with all that oil and gunk in them!

    You could get the original stanchions hard chromed and ground (Hamilton airport ?) but Franks do have a good reputation but I seem to remember they used to be old school as far as payment (no Paypal etc)

    There are these, maybe they are EMGO.

    tarrozi may do some forks but quite old not sure whether rotorua still do em, i had my hesketh forks done years ago, last century by them
    as for pipes, most wont touch them cause of the shit inside but if they do they'll weld bungs in the end and drain hole to stop their tanjks getting dirty.
    franks is a little hard to deal with and have recently had rumours they might be shutting down so get in while you can.
