pipe is custom made by a firm near Market Rasen called Alldens, I took a piper exhaust and my bike and if they could make a copy but took it in higher and nearer the back wheel, cannot remember the guys name but they did a fantastic job making it will post some pictues

The bike is a great refresh of the GT. Have you contacted Classic Motorcycle Mechanics, it would look great in their "reboot" series.

Love the 3-1. I have a piper to fit to mine, but it really needs a bit of work removing dents and rechroming before it could look anything like as mint as yours. Please post more info and pics of the pipe.

I rather like the fact that Aldens website address has the word "sex" in it. Entirely appropriate looking at your pipe! Stainless; must have cost a bob or two.

I reckon with buying and selling parts over 4 years and out of my own pocket about £6500
