Thanks! I would change it but insurance may go a bit iffy. I kinda like the funny little peashooter!

Thanks mate :)!

Thanks a lot!

It currently looks like this, a bit sorry for itself. First the clutch seized, now the starter motor has packed in!

Few things done on this for when I start driving (Test on Tuesday  :wacko:).  I removed the HiLo's as insurance was killer, and put back my "standard" trumpets.  Haven't had a chance to swap back to my chrome wheels.

I didn't like the standard exhaust so I brought the downpipe off a standard peashooter, and a bit of stainless tube, and abracadabra I made a straight through  :mrcool: . I used the standard rear peashooter loop as the middle support.

Also made me a new gearknob :D. Pokemon for the win!

Apart from that, little has changed, but it passed its MOT, and is all ready to go.

That gear knob is so cool!! The exhaust looks a little vulnerable at the back though?

Especially to your shin/ankle?

I like the pokeball too, although you have it on upside down? Haha

I thought I'd give this an update.  Nothing has really changed, just been driving it about loads, sine I passed my test in November!  Changed back to the chrome wheels, took the straight through pipe off (sounded cool, but the engine didn't run well with it :( ), put some group 2 arches on but still have poke :D and added stuff to the rack!

 

Cheers for the previous comments :). I realised the gearknob was upside down, right after I drilled the hole  :shy:, still recognisable though! If anyone was wondering, I brought a cheap pokeball from japan for a £5, drilled a hole in it and used two 5/16 nuts to secure it.

 

I've literally had so much fun driving it about, here a few pictures of it....

Before the chromes, still on steels (with my Euro N-Cap rear one!)
