Front end swap
You could definitely make it fit . But what will you have then ? Will the forks be long enough etc ? Why do you want to swap it out ?

Servicing
Come on Grouch , do you really want the work experience kid working on your bike down at the local Yammy dealer ? He wont care about it like you do . Plus the feeling of satisfaction after servicing your own bike and riding by the dealership with a wad of notes still in your wallet . Priceless !

How'd do from Chester
Hey Congrats man ! Nice little bike (almost as nice as my CG , lol) . And don't worry , at 32 you are a mere foetus compared to some of the crusty old farts on here , lol . (which does make them very good people to ask advice from )

Hi Hedley , all that stuff is easily sorted . Youd be best off replacing the pipe rather than trying to bodge it , I reckon . Best of luck with your new bike !

Wow, shocker.
Oh lovely little bike ! One of the first I remember seeing as a kid . I had one of the Benly 200's much later . A few years ago a friends brother picked up one of the trail versions with the high exhausts for next to nothing , and in good nick too .

Older degreasing methods?
I wouldn't be one for powerwashing the bike . Generally a squirt of WD and a wipe of a rag . Different for off road bikes though .
-
Older degreasing methods?
I use a 50/50 mix of petrol and diesel in a spray bottle , plus whatever rags and old toothbrushes etc . It'll shift most oily muck .
