UK or US? They look like Read Titan pipes from the 1960's to me.

Double the chance of pipe burns. Especially if you have a passenger.....

The Read Titan pipes were similar to the CL ones Graham, they didn't have the slight curve around the rear suspension units, I had some on my CB72 back in the day.

Thanks for putting me right. I was just looking at some original ones on my friend's garage wall. I stand corrected. :-)

I believe they were sold by the southeastern US parts distributor that was later bought out by Tucker-Rocky. Can't remember their original name in the 60's. Chase
