that exhaust really has that boardtrack look probably not the best perfomance for a 2 stroke though

yeah well see what happens with the exhaust... i think the stock exhaust is gross looking, and the expansion chambers are even uglier if it doesnt work as is ill think of something else

yes. just wedge one crank arm in a vice or a hole or something, stick a big pipe over the other end, and bend it. one piece cranks are strong, they can take it. don't even bother heating it up. they're cold forged anyway...

I remember riding an old 20-24" bike at the end of the fifty's w/the cranks bowed in ,thought I was riding too hard,At the time I figured the thing was shot so I put the tires on another frame and was off again.
