cb350 Hooker Headers

Been Around the Block
Can't find hardly anything about them online anywhere, but the rat bike I just bought sure has them (sticker on the muffler). I am planning on running chopped CL pipes on my finished project and passing these along to a buddy doing a build. Are they really that rare that there is no info on them or are they just junk that no one ever ran?
 
I... Uh... Yeah...

The scrambler pipes are garbage. Nobody wanted them in the 70s and nobody wants them now. I read some period reviews (the words "awful" and "worse than a kick in the taint" were used several times) and apparently EVERY writer who tested the pipes died within six months. The Hooker Curse I think they called it. First guy to ever get AIDS? Ran Hookers on his CB. Fact.

Luckily, good ol' Lingo up there runs a "Death Pipe" (what they came to be known as) disposal company. Just ship them to him, wrapped in a sheet soaked in blessed Holy water of course, and he'll make sure nobody else has to suffer. It's the right, no... The HUMAN thing to do. Think of the children. Think of the goddamned children!!!!


(Better Lingo, old buddy?)

Seriously, if they are the scrambler pipes they could fund your build if they are in good shape. Last set of hooker cl450 scramblers pipes I saw on ebay sold for $700.


Thanks Von, I needed a laugh
 
The under frame 2-1 Hookers are rare but not that rare. They do sound gnarly without being obnoxious. The high pipes are super rare, especially in useable shape. Either version is about half the weight of the stock exhaust.

Those triple walled stock pipes are heavier than schedule 40 water pipe...... 8) Anything is lighter...
 
I've got some nice chopped and wrapped CL pipes with aftermarket baffles and tips if you're interested in a partial trade ;)
