Hello All,
Has anyone used the services of "Circle F Exhaust" in the U.S.A. ?
They do a number of exhaust systems for VMX bikes. Prices seem reasonable - as long as postage is not way out there.
I have asked them to quote me a price for a pipe to suit a 1974 Honda CR125M Elsinore.
I'll post the price when they get back to me.

I bought an MX250 pipe last year, it only cost $60US for airmail postage but expect delays in manufacturing as they are really busy apparently.
-
i bought a pipe for my 1973 cr250 it is a nice pipe but you need to get the end welded on as the size is too big to post.comes with all instructions just need a welder to do the job.
cheers

Hi gAGE,
Cyclegod and Jim are both correct. However, there is already a thread on this, so to save you trouble, come up in the end of this one http://ozvmx.com/community/index.php?topic=1368.0
If that doesn't work, go back up to <Reston Tips> main and Seach for Circle F. Youll see it under the post <Vintage expansion chambers>

Kevin at Circle F does a good honest old school pipe. That's because the AHRMA rules forbid tapered headers and fat mid sections. I've got one on my TM250 and it's well made. He is a little slow though.
-
I got an up and over for the MX360 and a flat track under pipe, try beating $150 USD each and $60 postage. :o
For the money you save i was happy to wait the 20 weeks. :P
They may be old school pipes but thats the bonus, they are period correct, and thank christ they aint no shitful Poisin lil experiance.

I like that rule ;) although judging by CD5 it doesn't appear to be a big prob (but maybe at a VMX race meeting..... ;D).
-
The straight header rule from the AHRMA is dumb as anyone with the slightest bit of nous has has already got round it. ::)
Trust me plenty have.................

It took a week to get it in the post. Im guessing the wait is the poor prick is so compeditively priced he is inundated with orders.
i was originally quoted 10 weeks and that was when i paid at xmas, turned up this week posted last.
P.S.... OLD fart i think your turns up with my TM pipe next week as he say he has posted them on friday, also ordering a few more cans and inserts, be good to have some spare i think.

You also get a Circle F Sticker for the wait.
