Tom Mac Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 Are these still available anywhere? a quick googling just brings up links to the current PM - which I doubt will be of any help in the quest for end cans for 2 strokes.

lorenzo Posted February 1, 2022 Report Share Posted February 1, 2022 This is of no help at all, but the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the title was that it's a euphemism for your testicles, your johnson end cans. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lesviffer 750 Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 I think Tom Mac might be on about Bob Johnson, he use to make some real nice stuff, he use to be based near me, but haven't heard any murmers for years now, no help, but i once delivered an NR750 to him, so he could make some cans for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srad34 Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) They are bloody lovely, well worth seeking out but thought they stopped making them in the late 90’s iirc? Edited February 2, 2022 by srad34 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid to late 90's had some good (above) and not so good firms trying to make a name for themselves,, our local one was called sidekick exhausts,, stopped a long time ago now though.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fontyyy Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Iirc these were also Johnson This is I think a real Pentax SP minus it's correct bodywork and Dymags. Or it could be his stock R model just chucked together. Whatever, Tanuki (once of this parish) was the owner. They were good times, great bikes going for not a lot of cash. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted February 8, 2022 Report Share Posted February 8, 2022 Pretty sure these were Johnson carbon fibre cans on one of my old RGVs. Were very well made. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
