I've just taken delivery of my new Kirkham (KMP-523) and I'm delighted with it. Although it is an assembled roller, there are still plentry of bits that I can do on it to keep me busy while I wait for spring to come (excluding the umpteen hours of rubbing down the filed finish body to a brushed finish).
However, I was somewhat surprised and dissappointed to find that the steel exhausts that I had specified because they were supposed to be as per original, are actually nothing like original. The joint between the headers and side pipes is at the collector rather than inside the engine bay as it should be and the collector itself is a rather ugly (IMO) bought in item rather than the correct fabricated item.
Did anyone else know about this change from original?
