over on the highlifter forums, guys have been using this pipe on just about every bike you can think of. You simply weld it on to the stock headpipe and away you go.

It's a basic exhaust with a single baffle in the inside. No where NEAR as loud as a cobra. Flows freely. Well made. and best part is....cheap as all hell.

Put on on the 300 honda I got recently and had to jet up to 134 on the main, that a bit of a boost over stock.


If no backpressure and loud as hell is your thing, the Fo-14 is a little larger with no baffle.

its a glass pack with a baffle in it. flip the inlet where its a outlet take the baffle out and should be loud. i dunno how it would look or if it will fit but it will be a start till get a good exhaust.

buddy ran one on his 8hp mini bike back in middle school, another buddy ran them on a cd350 bike.. sounded decent

the goal is to not be a loud obnoxious ass...hence the fo-4 over the fo-14

I'm wondering if that'll fit my BR '82 200e? The one on there is, waking up the neighbors, loud.

thats wat im trying to do...i want a loud muffler on my yamaha because i dont use it for hunting. the 14 is a 2" which you would have to do extra welding to try to fit a reducer on it. it would be simpler to take the baffle out of the 04. just explaing my thoughts on how im planning on doing this.
