Raped ape....

Post by sexpanther34 »

I installed my woods pipe on my 98 200 and am most impressed with it now! I didn't think a pipe would real make such a huge difference, but I stand corrected. My new silencer and 12 tooth sprocket will be here Wednesday. So I can finally take off the 11 tooth front sprocket. I also would like to thank everyone who has given me advice and help from this site. It is greatly appreciated.

Haha! Yeah I installed it and while I was putting on my riding gear, my dad hopped on there and ran it down the drive way and almost looped it. He came back with a huge smile, that his xr250 won't give him

Awesome. Yes, the expansion chamber is a very important aspect for a 2 stroke.

When I first got my kdx, I cut, gutted, and re-welded the stock pipe. That made a HUGE difference. It was pretty beat up though, and got more beat up as I got used to the bike, so I replaced with a DG enduro pipe. Some difference there, but not a whole lot. I have also tried an FMF fatty, but I liked the wider spread on the DG a bit better. Moral of the story, if you have an E bike, gutting the stock pipe is a nice cheap boost and nearly matches an aftermarket pipe.
