I heard a year or so back that the lad in Carlisle, who used to make Mikeck's, was going to start making them again. I think, however, that he no longer has the rights to use the name "Mikeck." These pipes on ebay look like his attempt to dip his toe in the market and see whether they'll sell.
a mate of mine swears by the old mikeck ,wont fit anything elce ,even getting a copy of his orriginal made for his cut down

there good pies but that one just doesnt look right with that end can the appeal for me was the thin alloy one or the all in one type with the repackable end welded on bit like a webster pipe these suit the lines of a lammy more than the motoX type which seem to be in faviour
how ever if i can get it for a good price then id not complain

Loved the mikeck on my T5, still got the pipe hanging up on the wall.
I needed a bracket for it a while back and dug the number out of an old 80s scootering.
After a bit of "who the f@ck are you, where the f@ck did you get my number" he dug out a couple of brackets out and stuck them in the post.

Still got one, all in one jobby, lovely sound, seems like it kicks in about 4k's, and then just keeps going and going. Scary on SX gearing
That's not going anywhere...

I realy like the kind of primitive look of these pipes and would buy one if still available.They realy suit a Lammy.Been after one for the GP for a while but most you find need u bends or bracket or dents pulled out to make em work again.
