Pipes for Bonnie America

[Les]

A friend has just bought a 2002 Bonneville America and is looking around for some aftermarket pipes to replace the standard (and way to quiet) pipes. What are his options? Cheers:-)

I had an 02 and after the first service I put on some cheap sawn offs and they are still on it as a mate got it off me. Ithink they cost me about $140.00 for the pair. They looked good and I even had to leave the stuffing inside them.

Just found out today that he's already talked to Street & Sport here in CHCH and sounds like he's going the Harris pipes way. Should sound sweet then!

"WFO" make Dunstall replicas(have one on my cb550), reverse cone shorties and a few others. Any bike shop should be able to get hold of them.

What does WFO stand for, Bonez? I've been looking around for these, you said in some earlier posts you got one for $99 or something ridiculous. I want to take some old exhaust headers for my Honda single (with twin exhausts, wtf), chop it off, and put a pair of reverse cone megaphones on it -- doable? Obviously it would need carb-fucking-around, but I have to do that anyway when I rebuild.

Look at British Spares in Wellington, their on the web. I got mufflers for my old Triumph from them ($180 for 2). They've got some different styles which you might be able to use.

Cheers for that link! They've got some reverse cones for $100 each, and some Dunstall replicas for $125. All manner of Norton/Triumph/BSA silencers, but they are more like $170-$200 and I think that's only for the one muff.

No no idea. It's a Taiwanese outfit.

Oh lol now I see, WFO is the brand. I thought it was the shop where you bought it . Once I have my bike running again you can look forward to a typically exhaustive thread consisting of me asking 2000 questions about exhausts, and headers, and mounting points, and fark...

EDIT: Lol! `Exhaustive'...
