I've searched several times without success. I would be very surprised if someone confirmed they do not have a web site, but it is looking that way.

I'm pretty sure that they don't ahve a website for their company itself, I had tried to find it about a year ago to no avail. Alot of their products can be found on HobbyNet Japan's website or Singapore Hobbies' website.

Mr. Lim, I don't know if Quique would have them, but you can try contacting him, since he is the US importer for Asano products, I'm sure that he could shoot one down there. He is in Rommily right now, but he should be back soon, I would get in touch with him, maybe he can point you in the right direction. His e-mail is [email protected] . I hope this helps.

Well guys,
I have good news and bad news. MK does (or did) have a website. It is under development... The last time I visited it, there was just a welcome page and nothing else (NO product information). When I find it again (I thought I' d bookmarked it) I'll post it here.
Singapore hobbies website, Hobby-net's website and Gator R/C's website cover most/all of MK's current product line (I have a 2003 MK catalog).

Default Header soft bracket

Thanks Acroman

Yes I did ask Somenzini about the header soft mount but he does not have them .He just made them from scratch.
I saw in the Japanese pattern website but can't see who makes them.

Any one has pictures on how you mount the asano or hatori header???

THanks

Wow! Looks like a whole lot of unnecessary hardware (added expense and weight). You don't need to support the header. The engine and pipe are more than adequate to keep everything in place.

Hi Aruba

My friend constructed this one for me that works quite well and is simple and cheap.

I can see doing this on a 4-stroke which historically has had a problem with the very light flex tubing cracking, but on a 2-stroke, what's the point? Is it cool?

Default Thanks Chad

Thanks Chad for the picture

Yes , I think I'll use your method ( Simple and lite )
My Synergy should be done by the end of this month and I will be using a Asano Pipe and header.

I was having a bit of problems with my setup using G-Trick ,YS 120 FZ ,hatori header ( no header mount , nose ring yes ) kept cracking after 50 flights. Is this normal ??? I've read that others are also using this method with no problems.

Now I am using a Central Hobbies NMP header ( No problems with over 100 flight ) but this set-up is a bit noisier.
Any ideas ???

Well Success in Poland ( I studied in Canada in the eighties so my heart is still with you guys. ) When will there be a World C in Canada??

Thanks again
