Ollie Thiel has some new 961 pipes available, typical of him, they look absolutely top drawer:

I'm liking those spring retained header pipes.
These are for the Dominator, wonder if he has ones for the Commando?

Hi FE , You beat me to the punch . I have ordered and they fit Commando 961 so long as you are using the A frame hangers. You can also couple these with the Thiel Short mufflers. I really like the spring retainers ! Should help with various issues .

Tony,
I don't see these pipes on Ollie's website.
"A" frame hangers?
Are these different from the stock Commando units?

Every Commando 961 and Domi 961 with OEM mufflers comes with the A frames. BT , These are what your mufflers hang from now . The Domi 961 with open megas have these replaced with different hanger frames.
 
How did you find out about the new pipes, I don't see them on Ollie's website?
What is the pricing, do you know?

You should email Ollie Thiel and get the word directly. He emailed me yesterday , I was on the list for shorties. I wanted some other stuff too like his shock bolt and muffler bolt caps.
 
Yeah he sent me these images a couple months ago.....I'm mega keen to start stocking his stuff.
As a few of you know, I'm currently trying to buy a 1960s motorcycle that's come up for sale. Commercial mortgages are new to me...they're an absolute bitch. But, if I can get this place, then I'm going full time with the bikes, and will hopefully be carrying some of Ollies stuff.

Dragging heels isn’t since January. Dragging heels is waiting 3 years for parts from TVS

My biggest issue I seem to remember was the method of payment , this is of course after they agree to send the parts . TVS/Norton required a bank transfer and that is another $60 US to the bank . Which I guess is worth it if you really need those parts . So I will be reaching out to them again with a parts inquiry , maybe now they with take credit cards ? Does Anybody know what payment method is required by Birmaingham Norton now ?

They sent me a payment link which was obviously a Shopify instance. On that basis they should be as able as anyone online.

See here; they have updated the web store since then: https://shop.nortonmotorcycles.com/cart

I’ve never used Shopify ,is it like PayPal where you sign up and put your method of payment in there ?

Shopify is effectively an online store platform that companies can subscribe too. They handle various payment methods - credit card etc - and PayPal is typically one of them. It’s worth noting you won’t really “see” the Shopify platform - it will just look like a Norton online store.

Hallelujah Nigel you have finally seen the error of your ways and learned to appreciate the glorious flowing loveliness of the Long Pipe.

Well, as you know Clive, I no longer have a 961 upon which to adorn with such finery.

I did consider buying a set to mount on the shed wall as art.

Sadly my shed isn’t long enough…
