fredbcj Posted July 14, 2017 Posted July 14, 2017 i was asked to make some expansion chambers to other peoples design a few years ago, once you have measured and drawn your original pipe ,then you can do any alterations (like take 30mm out the header,make the belly narrower,ect ) always handier if the bikes in front of you ,i cant work everything out so i used http://download.cnet.com/Cone-Layout/3000-6677_4-10551691.html ,same as anything the more accurate your drawing the better the info you put in, basic is inlet dia and angle ,centre length ,exit dia and angle ,once you make one bit you can save it to a dxf file for any laser cutting firm or print out a paper template and superimpose it on the sheet you need to cut ,the hardest part is keeping track of the bits and marking parts before fabrication ,sharpies are better than sticky labels ,t250 was handcut and rolled and brazed before i had a tig welder ,kr pipes was coppied from jim lomas pipes then adapted (more under the motor,dont burn the fairing,developed for 35mm carbs ) and laser cut at a old firm i used to work for ,if you can picture it in your mind it can be made, 3 Quote
