Very odd brand name, more akin to those from China than Japan, but then the Chinese might be more along the lines of "Best Quality Exhaust Making Company".....

Be great if that was written on the cans, so very Japanese.

Now that's a p1sser 🧐
I have set of steel k2tec ones on order just now
These SS ones are only slightly more expensive but made ip by the post being half
Their post prices are all over the place
You see 2 things like seats. Both the same size and weight but one is twice the price to ship 😕

I like those. Tempted. Also tempted to put different stickers on the cans...

I didnt actually read that they were stainless. The rear mounts look like they come off the footrest bolt, not the hanger, but i cant find any pics of them fitted.
Either way, funny name and another option.

Either way, funny name and another option. One of the reasons I bought the K2 ones was its a 250 ypvs in an lc frame so wanted ypvs pipes and as they mount on the hanger bolt I have options for hangers and fitment Steve |

Joined Webike and asked for a delivery date. They can't suppy this info but suggested buying them and waiting. Hmm. £400 including delivery for a product that might be out of stock.

One thing about the Japanese is that they dont really lie. If the supplier doesnt list a timeframe then WB wont magic one out of the air just to get money in etc
I would think since they sell other parts of this brand and these are a newish addition that they would organise them in a reasonable time frame, but who can say. We are all guessing if we say 'it'll be fine', or 'nah, they'll never come...'. But why add to the catalogue if they can actually supply? that makes me think they will supply.
FWIW i think when i bought K2TECs there was a bit of a lead time as they dont keep stock, they get made to order. Maybe thats the same with this brand?
Of course, what no one can tell you is if these are good pipes. ie If they make power or if they fit well etc. Also if they are for the 250 or 350 - but I would say they are 250 pipes from what is written on WB and id hope they would be a half decent fit, tho they are very cheap for stainless pipes... you do get what you pay for with everything in life... Worth a gamble tho at this price.
FWIW I had a look and I havent found any pics of them fitted or other people selling them... but thats not that rare with JDM parts as the Japanese dont do the web like we do. Maybe someone else with more google talent will find some... {disclaimer} I didnt look *that* hard to be honest as im not in the market for pipes...
FWIW Generally: For anyone wanting to use webike. In japan an RZ250 is 1980-82 and the later bikes are RZ250R. If you search webike for 'rz250' you can see all the parts they list for the model, the left side of the screen (on a computer) has the parts in 'areas', ie bodywork or engine or exhausts. so you can see more easily what they have.
Ive shopped a lot on WB. Not everything is Japanese, ie they have Nitron shocks and also some of the tools are made in Taiwan (which upsets the tool forum guys lol)... Oh, and... yeah tools... make sure you add some of the cool JDM tools to your order, Vessel Impacta +2 if nothing else... Ive usually found them good value on WB... I should really start a WB tools thread... SKII, Tone, Engineer... and the more exy brands...

Alex I ordered my k2tec ones that were marked as made to order A few days after I bought them I got and they said they'd be despatched on 11/3 At worst you've paid with PayPal so can tell them to stick them if it all goes wrong but as Jonw said they are usually true to their word Steve |

Thanks Jon and Steve. I do like the look of them but a bit of an unknown quantity really. But the prices are very low...might be worth a punt.
