just bought my first 200X a 1985, Need to know what exhaust is best, DG, Cobra, etc.

**bskwark** · 03-01-2010, 02:21 PM

what exhaust is the best to buy, i understand it boosts performance considerably. Who has what and what makes are still available?

Also is there any other plastic dealer than Maier?

**350Kris** · 03-01-2010, 02:46 PM

I'd say Supertrapp is the best....or a Bassani if you can find one.

**Thorpe** · 03-01-2010, 03:02 PM

Cobra is noisy junk....

**harryredtrike** · 03-01-2010, 03:07 PM

I wouldn't call an exhaust modification to be considerable, even by a long shot. Now add a higher compression piston, better cam, headwork, and a better intake then ya it would be a considerable mod. As far as best exhaust for a 200X, I would vote for the Supertrapp. They're no longer made, but if you keep looking on ebay, you may find one floating around.

I have a DG RCM on my 200X and it sounds pretty badass can get um for around $140.00

**SWIGIN** · 03-01-2010, 05:41 PM

I always perfered my KERKER pipe on my 85 200x.....good luck finding one.

**xrider** · 03-01-2010, 05:55 PM

Go with a supertrapp, they pop up on ebay every now and then

**RodKnockRacing** · 03-01-2010, 06:04 PM

Bassani but hard to find

**dirtface** · 03-01-2010, 06:37 PM

I have had supertrapps, DG's, Cobra's, and a Bassani on the one that I have now. For performance they are all better than the stock setup. But out of the four that I mentioned the Bassani has to be my favorite for sound. I repacked it when I picked it up and it has a real deep tone to it. The DG would definately be my second favorite, because I like the way the muffler forms to the underside of the fenders, and it also has a deep crisp sound to them.

DG but i had one and i did away with it. i had taken a 350x pipe and fabricated it to fit. my reasson is because aftermarket pipes get anoying i think.

**daniel_250r** · 03-01-2010, 07:38 PM

i have a cobra on my 200es, very poor quality exhaust i think. the paint from the factory starts smoking and flakes right off up to the silencer on the first ride. very disapointing to me. i'd say go dg.

**DixiePlowboy** · 03-01-2010, 08:03 PM

Have used Bassani, Kerker, DG, Cobra, Sand Scorcher, Viper, and White Bros., and I can honestly say that's there's not much difference at all between the best of them and the DG as far as power goes.

**jays200x** · 03-01-2010, 09:57 PM

The DG is LOUD. Didnt suit me for close to houses riding. Went back to stock with no baffle, didnt really make a noticeable power difference.

**WIkid500** · 03-01-2010, 10:15 PM

Best one is my stock muffler with no baffle and 1-3/8" mandrel bent tube all the way back from the head.
