    I think the pipe looks cool just as it is, although it would be no problem getting it chromed for cheap as a friend of mine has his own chroming business.

    well I ordered the TT now anyway. I may chrome it or I may just paint it with that other stuff. We'll see what happens depending on how much my mate wants for chroming it.

    why is it a waste of money? I got mine for under £70.

    I'm not looking to spend a lot of money on my bike because frankly I can't afford to. A new standard exhaust was in the £60 - £70 region and its about the only part on the bike that was going to need replaced before summer anyway.

    Wheels?

    Ok so I think this thing would benefit from a better set of wheels and a front disc. (Although my friends think it would benefit from being blown up).

    In regards to the front wheel what parts exacty will I need? Will mostly any wheels I find fit on? I assume not all wheels wil accomodate a front drum brake so I would say im going to have to factor the price of a front disc in too?

    On the rear it has a drum brake and I am sure I read somewhere that there is a difference on these minarelli horizontals in regards to a rear drum/disc. Will this affect the choice of wheels I can go for?

    I like the yamaha aerox wheels.



    ....On another note I am having so much fun on this thing its unbeliveable.
