Hi

I have these pipes which came with my TZR250. They may be Nikkons but not sure

The i/d of the front is 44mm. I could do with finding out who made them as it will give me some chance of sourcing some replacement stubs for them to slot onto on the barrels.

Any ideas?

Also this engine cover. Not a clue what Yamaha it is from. Came as a random bit in a box of Aprilia parts:-

All the best

Hi

I agree the side cover probably comes from a single but can't see anything the same.

Someone elsewhere has pointed out that they look like Swarbrick pipes. Hopefully I can get some stubs.

All the best

Hi

Possibly identified the cover. The cover has 353 on the inside which goes with the FX50. Looks like that engine landed up in the RD50:-

Have you tried asking on the TZR250 forum? (http://pure2strokespirit.net/forums/index.php

There's lots with 1KT, 2MA, 2XT, 3XC etc

Hi

Dave Swarbrick has confirmed they look like his pipes. Helpful and friendly guy.

Ordered new stubs and springs, etc. Can try them on the TZR and see it that fixes the lack of umph at higher revs, which at least will let me know if the stock pipes are the problem (coked up maybe).

All the best
