rjdgriff Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 So I found these pipes on Craigslist and just picked them up today. Trust me when I say that you don't want to know how cheap I got them for... I damn near stole them!!! They are 100% MINT original Rockets. They guy bought them from Thomas Borink years ago and never did anything with them. They have never been ran or mounted on any bike and half of this set has never been unwrapped even!!!! Now I have 2 sets of Rockets I plan to keep these new ones just like they are for as long as I can so that I will have some SWEET back up pipes Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 Nice fucking pipes.. That was a good score. Quote
RadarRacing Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 I saw those on CL glad someone on here got em that can appreciate em. I almost thought about buyin em but I didnt need em. Quote

rjdgriff Posted July 10, 2012 Author Report Posted July 10, 2012 Give me a price I want them ??? Make me an offer that is impossible for me to refuse, because I REALLY DON'T wanna sell lol Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 10, 2012 Report Posted July 10, 2012 Those are too clean to sell. I'd hold onto them. I might have to just snatch them off you. Quote

trickedcarbine Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 Suck! My! Dick! I have been scouring the Internet here in Michigan for another set of Original Borrink built originals. They are all over on built bikes but no body wants to part ways unless they sell the whole bike. I even offered shearers and still got no! There is a lot of bustle about these pipes again, I wish Tom would buy the original rocket brand back off Dave and make them again. I love the way mine perform but not the way the fit. They are literally they the last set of stampings before the dye was lost in storage! Quote

They are probably one of the very last set of nib original rockets out there Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 I bet kickstartmyheart's tiny balls that I end up with these pipes.. Then I am going to hang them on my shop wall. Quote
crazyj789 Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 That is awesome....great find. I just got a set of original rockets in great condition for there use and age. PITA to find and paid out my ass for them. Quote
KickStartMyHeart Posted July 13, 2012 Report Posted July 13, 2012 I bet kickstartmyheart's tiny balls that I end up with these pipes.. Then I am going to hang them on my shop wall. Tyler, i swear on my life if you end up with these and hang them in your shop, Ill drive my ass to your house in the middle of the night and just stand over you as you sleep and when you wake up, I will smother you in a pillow. I called a guy in michigan and offered him $650 for a USED set and he said he didnt want to sell just the pipes. What a douche! Quote
