    Best exhaust made for 83-85 Honda 200x?

    So I was wondering and looking around at several previously manufacturers exhaust systems fpr the 83-85 200x. I have seen the following:

    Stock Honda
    White Brothers R4
    Supertrapp with discs
    Cobra megaphone
    DG RCM
    others I missed?

    Just wondering how they compared to each other, performance wise, sound, etc.

    Any personal experience is welcome...

    For me I have experience with the cobra system I have on my 200x, its loud! But it does an ok job I guess at working with my modified motor. But I have no other experience to compare it too on a 200x.

    TC, Sparks, KR pipe’s, kerker, Powroll, yoshimura. DG and Cobra offer little to no power gains. Supertrapp is the best overall with Powroll/sparks/TC closely behind it.

    Did supertrapp make both a 4inch racing and regular series for the 200x?

    Pretty sure it was 3 in. If I get a chance to climb up in the attic today I'll verify.

    That's a great magazine article. I wish there was a version for the 350x exhausts for comparison. This Supertrapp doesn't look the same as the 200x trapp pictured.

    Is that custom built or manufacturered that way? Never seen one.

    Its a shame that these listed in the article are very slim to none as far as finding one in good shape for use today. The search continues....then I may switch mine.

    I have always been a big fan of the Bassani pipes.

    Mickey Dunlop might have a good option for you. I'm not sure if he's offering a full system yet, but he did make head pipes that fit up to the DG silencer I think.

    HRE systems are different now days. Mine shown was a highly modified yz400f one. New ones are more like the old cobra ones. I wanted sound dumped into ground.

    Thanks guys, I am still pondering what I will do next. I may have to experiment with a few mufflers or see if I can find one of the ones listed above in good condition to use. I did take my cobra apart yesterday and some of the packing is missing. It has a core with maybe 5" covered with packing. But for the most part is a straight through design. I wonder if reducing the endcap diameter which will increase back pressure and make it a bit quieter will change things. Might be interesting to experiment with. Those seem to be my options since I think the only ones still mass produced is the dg rcm, what a shame.

    DG and Cobra are obnoxiously loud, not neighbor/trail friendly.

    If you can find a nice Supertrapp, I think you'd like being able to add or remove discs.

    The newer systems guys are using are very expensive, but a nice old school exhaust can run just a little bit less.

    I've got a complete 85 200X ST setup, but I paid 300$ so it wouldn't leave my hands for less than 400$; At that point, you may just grab yourself a new custom system.

    Trike builds and parts are not cheap...
