Title: Pipe builder in Newcastle/Sydney
Post by: Rodpack on July 24, 2013, 04:19:15 pm

Hi, I'm looking to get a pipe made for my 80 KX250. Does anyone know of any pipe builders in the Newcastle/Sydney area? I know that Doug Childress from the US makes a pipe for this model, but I would rather keep it local. Any help appreciated. Cheers, Rod.

GMC in Broadford Vic makes a great pipe  ;)

Tried Geoff but he needs the bike to make sure the pipe fits properly and shipping it down and back is a hassle. Ideally if someone in Melbourne with the same model bike also wanted a pipe made we could possibly share costs of getting it set up with GMC.

I don't charge set up costs for ordinary models, only oddball stuff like bike motors in go-carts or one off hybrids.
As far as I can tell the 80 and 81 seem to be similar for pipe fitment??
If any one has a bike in Melb. it doesn't need to be a runner, it just needs everything where the pipe runs, front guard, fuel tank, airbox etc.

Thanks for the replys everyone. Turns out Lozza lives about 5 minutes from my place so it worked out good.
