Thankyou to these people and organisations who gave a helping hand:
Honda parts -
Ollies Honda Kingaroy
Bert Kingston Honda Brisbane

S&B Autos Kingaroy - Garry for putting up with the endless painting questions, making brackets and pointing out easier / better solutions to the many changes that needed to be made to satisify lawfull requirment for registration. It would have been easier to have the bike professionally painted by Garry - but that takes the fun out of a restoration project. I did it my way even if it is not the best way.

Transac Brisbane - Mick (07 3206 8354). Quick turn-round on my pipes at Christmas time. Nice fit and with the reverse cone megaphone and baffel, sounds like a 'real' bike.
