    From what I can see you have an 8.5 proddy engine but actual power will depend on how well it is built and whether you have a decent proddy pipe which I can't see. You have a 910 front brake caliper which are not really powerful enough and being that they bolt to a fixed bracket on the forks make them difficult to upgrade, probably easiest to go for a twin front brake set up if you have the mounting holes for the caliper onthe other fork leg as well, so you would need a right hand caliper and another disc from a 910. As for the water bottle that should also be a 910 bottle which just sits on top to the left of the top engine mount and is held in by the seat unit being on top of it.

    it looks cut before the bend that goes into the tailpipe which also shouldnt be welded on.
    as for getting another, rocking horse poo comes to mind when pasini proddy pipes are mentioned.

    I have no idea where you would get one from as they are so rare nowadays.
    Every bike would have come from a factory at some point lol so I don't know what the seller means by that unless his idea of factory is to spend a couple of hours in the garage with some old exhausts and a welder.
    Rather than messing about talking about exhausts and uprated braking systems why not put the bloody thing together and see if it works as for all you know the engine could be totally shot. Have you ever thought about why it was sold as a box of bits if it was any good.

    na never come with that! that exhaust was part of a job lot! and they sold it as a box of bits cuz they bought a new bike and put some parts in their new engine!
