They look like US style pipes, I've seen most Australian pipes made for the Old Honda's, they are listed on the forum somewhere, none look like that, {I am more familiar with 4 into 1's though}, there are plenty of US bikes on the forum with similar pipes.. ;)  Is that bike an import  ?

Thanks for the response. No I don't think it's an import - now I'm gonna check the s/n and see. It's a 3/70 K0 that I bought out of Pennsylvania in January. S/N 29XXX.

Oh, I thought you were in Australia... ;)  Why do you think the pipes are Aussie pipes ...?

Retro,
Sorry for the confusion. I don't think they are Australian pipes. My freaking spell check turned exhaust to exhaustralia and hence the confusion.

Maybe Jardine?...I have a Jardine 4 into 1 and it is stamped "Jardine" faintly on the muffler hanger bracket, so check 'em closely.  I had mine for quite a while before I noticed it.
If it works good, it looks good...

Found an old ad..maybe not but they look a bit familiar..

After corn and bacon fritters washed down with Jack Daniels, my Butt Organ is making a lot of noise tonight Frank, maybe my baffles are rotten? ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"
