What pipe do you guys like ?


Recommended Posts

I come from the school of two strokes... if a pipe doesn't add at least 10-15 % HP whats the point ?

By the look of most of your guys sigs it seems like you have a pretty inexhaustible source of funds, if I did I would probably pipe the ole' girl ? I'd rather spend my pennies on suspension work... all the power is for naught, if you can't get her to handle properly ?

Sometimes its not about getting more power when you add a pipe. I have the FMF system on my 450. Sure it add a couple hp but it also made it more managable. And that for many people such as the people who dont care for the hit like all of Factory Yamaha last year, that is more important.

Stock... look at the dyno figures... unless you want to change sound or bad characteristics (or shed weight) stay with the stocker. Yamaha made a damn good pipe straight out of the box IMHO.

I disagree on that ?

I startet out with the stock pipe on my ´01 YZ426. This was my first bike ever so i thought it had plenty of power for me. Later i bought a used slip on WB e-series and damn did that make the bike pull like a train! ? Before i couldn´t take some of the tight corners with lots of sand in 3rd, but now it shoots out like a rocket..

I have just installed a brand new complete DR.D and that thing rox..

I guess I'm still a fan of the WB R4. I had it on my 250F ad on my Raptor and it made a world of differance in the power delivery. It also sounded pretty good without being too obnoxious and it was on the lower level in the price range. I haven't ridden the 05 450 yet, but after I do, if I think I need to change silencers (or loudeners as yhey should be called) I will look at the R4 first.
