Got this info from Hyside Racing about their pipes and some pics…..
“The spec I am running on my T500 is actually TR750 spec, my cylinders are ported to T500 race spec, which was sent out by the factory back in the 70’s running with 36mm carbs, Pete is building one at the moment which will have TR500 watercooled spec pipes on it, same porting but with 38mm carbs.
Pete’s Pipes are not just off the shelf one spec, Pete has been building 2 stroke pipes for over 35 years, he has found that the later spec pipes are not as peaky with the power delivery, as the early ones, so making the bike a bit easier to ride and seems to give just as much power. You are always better off building the pipes to suit the bike, rather than trying to build a bike to suit a set of pipes.
I have attached a pic of the pipes on my bike, but as you will see I don’t have a standard frame.

I have attached a pic of the pipes on my bike, but as you will see I dont have a standard frame, I dont have any pics at the moment of a set on a standard frame I will have in a couple of weeks. also a pic of some T250 pipes.
I hope this answers some of your questions, please feel free to contact if you need any more info
