Re: Rebuilt project Yamaha IT 250 K 1983 .....
Is that a YOSHIMURA domestic market "JAPAN" 2 stroke end can and pipe?.. I have only viewed one set of expansion chambers from Yoshimura for a 2 stroke, years ago and they sold on E-bay for like 2k. I didn't even know they did 2 stroke exhausts, if that is in fact what it is, as of late there into the 4 stroke scene...but if that's a real YOSHI "JAPAN badged' end can...that's kinda cool

Re: Rebuilt project Yamaha IT 250 K 1983 .....
The pipe is stock just the silencer is Yoshimura .......
But this one is my favourite for these bikes ....
I like the old USA ..... just received it and this one is going on the bike.....
Although I have Jolly moto & Jim Lomas exhausts , I'd love to try some DG's or Toomey's exhausts on my RZ's ......
Also more parts came in to solve the IT puzzle ......

As ever, Petros doesnt mess about... In a blink of an eye the bike will be done... and high quality too. Why don't you come here on holiday Petros? Arron, Jason and I will host you a week each. In that time we each get a bike built and you get to enjoy the Aussie weather... (which is now getting colder, sigh) LOL
