Crikey that front pipe's a monster, is that the 'big one' with a paint job?

It is mate, at one time they were available in black or chrome. Only seem to see chrome ones these days.

Chrome ain't gonna work on a 30 year old DT.

No not in the true sense of the term 'restored' Dave, i'm the the one and only owner, I rode it for years through the winters and in more recent times started to look after it, a true restored one would have all the zinc and green nuts and bolts etc, personally I prefer stainless and I'm happy with something that looks good for it's age rather than something that looks straight from the showroom.
