Welded it up myself. Cost me about fifty cents in scrap cromoly. Not including welding gas, wire, bandsaw, drill bits, etc...

Just get the V1 circuit pipe from treats for $100, plug the end, poke a hole in it about an inch from the end cone, add 7" of 1/2" pipe, and you're set.
Btw, without a silencer it registers 76dbm at full revs. Legal noise limit is 83 in California.

V1 polini is the shit. This is making me want to do more work on my safari. It runs well, but an exhaust a bit more than a people's pipe is intriguing
Re: Cimatti Gran Prix XL
Stretched it a coupla inches in the back. Used some steel stock, cut it to fit in the drop out slot, and welded the crap out of it.
Makes it a bit more stable and not as scrunched lookin'.
Also got some EBR fork legs, put the promo pipe on because it has a silencer, and put a 12t up front. Hitting mid 50's now.
Re: Cimatti Gran Prix XL
Looks good stretched out, at first I was wondering where you lengthened it until I read the description and the second pic.

I'd love to do a ride like that. But I'm in California, and it's a long drive, then a long ride.

Re: Cimatti Gran Prix XL
I use a cut off wheel on an air grinder and carve a cotter pin groove on the opposite side of one end on the shaft. Much easier than cutting and welding a crank, and you can switch it back if you want.
Then with baby cranks, I have enough ground clearance so they're like pegs, high enough so they don't hit in corners.
