They almost look like Gold Star mufflers.

I seem to remember seeing a pic of your CB, Vince, with a similar type(?).

Yessiree - something like them, though the ones in the eBay listing look slightly different. Who knows what the quality is like though.

Mine are Norman Hyde TOGA mufflers which, unfortunately, are no longer available. Armours in the UK offer a similar one.

I thought I'd seen similar. That clutch cable looks a bit tight, mate!

No, I think it's just the photo. The cable has a nice gentle bend in it and has lots room to move around.

With the routing like that (I know, not the 'proper' way), it's definitely a two finger clutch -- like butta!

Vince

Some nice tasty stuff here from Unity Equipe. See page 14 for Goldie mufflers. I had a bad experience with Armours a while back.
