Beta water outlet pipe

[frankxhv773t]

I am missing a water outlet pipe from the cylinder head on a Beta, number 17 on the attached picture. I'm getting a feeling they must rust as I haven't found one on line so I'd be happy to have anything and have a go at fixing it.

It may not be 100% right but any decent pipe bender could use it as a pattern?

Or you could try dropping an email to this eBay seller who supplies a lot of parts for Stratos replicas?

Hi Frank

They do rust away and hence can be difficult to find. The one in the US appears to only have a single outlet, whereas a EU version has two outlets. I suggest a post on the Betaboyz forum may get a response?

Thanks Peter. I may have found one but I could do to be on that forum anyway so I'll register.

I'm still searching without success for a cylinder had water pipe. All leads have come up blank except £120 for the wrong one from the US. I even missed out on a complete Spider about 25 miles away, a wreck advertised for £2000 then scrapped before being offered for parts.

I am further hampered by an IT issue that, as well as limiting my access to this forum, blocks me completely from accessing betaboyz so my request for a water pipe is still live if anyone can help or has any leads.
