Can't help with the pipes but that sure is a killer looking bike. Not sure which I am more jealous of, the bike or the tool boxes.

Cant guarantee the fit but I would try pipes of a LATE 72 TR6C with the push in pipes.
Are you a Rot LE Member?

Hey TrackerOldGuy,
If you have or can get spigots in the heads you may be able to use high pipes from a 650 cc they are availble in both styles.You may have to `custom make brackets .The T140 engine is shorter than the 650 engines by approx. 1/2 " but I think that can be overcome.

Folks, I may have misstated. My current pipes slide over the
spigots and are then clamped to them. The spigots
are treaded into the heads. Do you have a suggestion
of a supplier I could talk to about pipes for this?
I am not a member of Rot LE. Do they have a web site?

If you have push overs, then the world is your oyster....... as they say. Any of the mid to late 60s' TR6 high levels will fit, but as Lutz says you may have to make brackets. The OIF TR6s' may well fit straight on. Check it out.
Roy.
