Does anyone know of anyone who has the autorimessa exhaust kit who would be willing to take really good measurements?!

There's a 4-2-1 full system in black mold steel for cheap money.

Yes mate I made a few.
I was going to get some done but sandybikes made a batch so I never bothered.

Problem was all the pipe bending companies only work in 1.5mm and I was looking for 1mm for a track system and 1.2mm max for road, and the pipe ends up weighing a ton.

Local company were happy to do them but I had to buy the tooling and at £500 a set it was not workable.
If you want to do your own from pre bent sections Good fans can custom bend, any thickness in any material but they are Not cheap, f1 stuff.

Think the post was in the non site supporting part that gets dumped if it goes off the page.
