The works OW27s had a pipe like that - the white guards suggest that it might be a very early (air-cooled) version of the OW27??

Shame the pic's so blurry...
The good thing about telling the truth is that you don't have to remember what you said.

Good to see you back Nathan  :) Can you Modify a GMC YZ 125A pipe (the best pipe ever made for those early 125s  ;D ) to fit the C or X  ??? would have thought so as i modified one for my MX 125C  ;D

Mick that pipe you made for your Mx 125 looks the goods and works real well  :)

it was actually chopped off an RM125N but while i had it in pieces, my mate {the numbskull sandblaster at work} blasted a hole staight through the header section, to which i did a pretty rough patch job on at the time.
it's been that way since i rebiult the bike and will one day fix it up, probably when i do a top end fresh'n up on it as it hasn't really had the top end off since CD5 at raymond Terrace ???
