Anyone speak Portuguese?

@Calum I have heard that since the UK has entered / completed Brexit. Romeu won’t deal with UK / customers outside of the EU - because shipping costs are too high / taxes etc.
I’d be keen for a RH pipe, one of the best about I would say, never hear a bad thing about them! My DEP is cooked and will need replacing next year but based on how long mine lasted and how much I paid (from new), it’s a total waste!
It’s basically a quality stainless steel pipe that will last for ever if cared for, for the same price (or cheaper depending on tailpipe) as a 1mm thin dep!...
What’s not to like!
It works out at about £340 for the pipe I want, which is the more expensive pop riveted tailpipe version. The basic welded tailpipe is £50 odd cheaper... -
@GoProKid95 I think he quickly reversed that decision as it isn't that hard to import into the UK.
@Calum oh that’s actually sick!! I couldn’t order because of that. I’d be keen to have one of his pipes as my dep is done for!!

I’m really hoping Romeu joins the forum so we can start getting his pipes back!!!

How much would having it plated cost? You’d probably have to have the nickel removed. It’s not gonna be a good base...

I’m trying to but an exhaust from Henrique Romeu but am having trouble with communication. Anyone dealt with the man before? Or can help?
@SpookDog he certainly is shipping to UK as I spoke to him for you recently. Did he not contact you? He does most of his trade on Facebook as he has a very good English speaking team running his Facebook account.

https://www.facebook.com/RomeuHenriquesI hope he does, I’m not on Facebook and I like what I’ve seen on the limited photos I can see.

@SpookDog
Are you buying a standard kinda,,, off the shelf pipe or have you specified one for what your running ? As in 125 top end or 170 bigger carb etc ??@Scootjockey I bought one off him for my 170. Although not 'off the shelf' they're all made to order, it is the standard exhaust same as for a 125. He recommended this and told me that only if the 170 was heavily ported then it would change albeit the exhaust body would stay the same just slightly different internally. It's a very large exhaust so I couldn't see it needing to be bigger even for a 200cc.

Sounds very intriguing already how much are you looking at approx $€£ ? Cheers

@Scootjockey 330 Euro for the full system plus 35 euro shipping. No extra charges for import tax. Even though he sells them in Euros you have to do the conversion and do bank transfer in £. I got mine July and 330 was £274, it's £290 now so just keep an eye on the exchange rate and you can save a few ££. 4 weeks delivery. Get a mate who's on Facebook to contact him.

Mine came in at €400. Which I think is a bargain, for a stainless steel system that will never need replacing...
-
£400 give or take few for a stainless exhaust is a bargain any day of the week.

It’s 400 euro, which comes in at between £340~360 odd pounds st£rling. Depending on the exchange rate

Somebody’s got to love inflation, I just haven’t met them yet!
Yeah it’s with the more expensive riveted end can, that can be stripped down, cleaned and repacked...
I think the front expansion chamber alone comes in about 290€

Just been told the pipe is being posted today!...
Anyone know how long the shipping usually takes?...
@SpookDog
Usually 2-3 days plus customs, and maybe another 2-3 days depending on the carrier and if it’s a Friday when it lands. I’ve been tracking my bit of Japanese exotica for the past week and waiting for customs clearance, not like an impatient parent at all
