i dont like dmc pipes really i think there over priced iv tried allot of pipes and for my riding style sst's do the best by allot and yah they are and for hooking the hook very good but they rip out pretty easy those are half way out lol next year im going with cold cutters for circle track racing

Got to love the Shee. If you own one you luv it , if don't you hate'm. Great job on the makeover. Couple years ago i did the oppsite of you and had to detune mine to make it more trail friendly. Mine was a hand full on the trails and I was killing clutches. Enjoy your Shee and know you have a wicked weapon at your will. Nice

The "predator vs. the world" thread has been moved, as the debate does not belong here.

appreciate it Mosh, though it wasn't intended to be a debate, was meant as a 1 comment thing and complimenting the thread author on a very nice quad.
