    My new toy, looking for articles and photos on these bikes

    As mentioned, looking for piccies of the megacycle Pipes that were offered if you brought a kit through Mick Hone Motorcycles, also any articles on these great bikes.

    That's nice. Just take yours a few places and create your own pix.

    that's easy, mainly looking for piccies of the megacycle pipes that came with these kits when sold new by Mick Hone Motorcycles, also some old ads etc, particularly australian ones of the time

    i met the owner at phillip island nine years ago, went into melbourne to see it and have been nibbling away at him for a while, he finally decided on a fixed offer on ebay, whereas for years he had a reserve that wasn't reached. i think a few people had thought he was too hard to deal with in the end and it also came on ebayover xmas when a lot of people aren't going there.

    Ken McIntosh has just built a new production run of these bikes - he may have the pipes or gear available now. Give him a shout.

    no he doesn't. they were a megacycle system built in australia and were offered with the kit's sold by Mick Hone motorcycles. if you brought the kit anywhere else you could go to megacycle and get a pipe, but they weren't included.
    i've contacted megacycle, they don't have the jig anymore, but can build one if they had the bike....
