Hi peeps, I'm after a set of downpipes ( any year) for my 1997 Bird. I've bin advised by 'Oldbull' from the 'ixxra' forum, to ask for someone who goes by the name "Taffy" ? on this forum. Who I'm told, ( by oldbull), might be able to help me out, ( with a set of downpipes). Thanks, kind regards, Sircular.

If you become a sponsor you can send a message to Taffy.

£5.50 for all the technical help and assistance you could ever need.

Bargain.

Taffy is probably your best bet on here, though I wouldn't get the mild steel pipes off a carby, go with the injection as they're stainless.

I did the swap myself a couple of yrs back, found mine on fleabay.

The only problem I had was I couldn't get the O2 sensor out which could be amusing come the next MOT.

I've been riding motorcycles since I was at school. Never regretted getting any of them. Regretted the off I had, when I busted me collar bone & couldn't ride for a few weeks !

It is also worth noting that EFI pipes up to 2001 will fit as well ( though you cannot fit carb pipes on an efi. It is due to the positioning of the radiator )

As a bonus, efi pipes are stainless ( albeit not great stainless )

Thanks for the info', John. "Taffy" Dave hasn't replied yet, although Vin has a set, & I've spotted some nice ones on fleabay. Regards, Len
