Can anyone help?

Hi,

the collector box on my ST1100 is just showing signs of sarting to expire on me, this is a known fault on the ST1100 as it's made of mild steel and is very exposed to the elements.

So before it goes it would be good to source a good used set of (perferably Motad) down pipes with collector box in stainless steel.

So if anyone has or knows of any in a good used condition I would be very keen to hear from them in the near future.

This one of the few known guranteed failures on the ST1100, the others are the silencers will rot and so does the rear swing arm, sadly Mr Honda decided to make them out of mild steel.

I my humble opinion it would be great if Mr Honda would start production of this great motorcycle again, who knows we can live in hope!

All the best and safe riding

Dave
