I also made some videos riding Tuesday, I shot about 40 minutes of riding. From casual field riding, trails, and riding in 2 feet of water, that seems to go on forever.

This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

Nice superman style there :-p
Are you on the stock pipe still?
Being thats an 85 model, you could really get some power outta it, way more than the 200x or the 200es :-p

Sadly yes, I still have that godawful pipe on it. I've not saw many aftermarket pipes on fleabay for a 125 though.

Can you weld exhaust pipes? If so, just grab a 125 dirt bike pipe, hack the stock and the dirt bike pipe and weld them together. Be sure to extend the pipe atleast 3 inches on the header and 3 inches in the middle of the expansion chamber, for good measure. ANYTHING is better than stock lol

I could also just take some old hollow handle bars, and jb weld them on. It's be better than stock anyway.

nice trike, i have the same one except a 1980. wheelies are so easy on them, except mine floods out when i do them to far. and I would agree that the stock pipe sounds like poo. I really want to find a yz125 pipe to put on there.

They way im doing it, is i find dented YZ125,RM125, CR125pipe and hack them up.
You can find damaged pipes all day. Just remember, they are tuned for 10000RPM, thats why they need extended a total of 6 inches or so, longer it is more bottom end you'll have.

i love wheelieing my 175. something happend to my exhaust mount broke or something at the cyl so it gives it a deeper tone at the front of the bike. I wish it had rear suspension though it would be perfect. You could see my wheeling here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbL-e...el_video_title and yes mind floods out also after a while

I took the spark arrester thing on the back of the silencer and got a really long drill bit and drilled a hole in the baffles. it makes a slight difference in sound at about half throttle. kind of deep sound like some snowmobiles.

I've never done anything with exhaust, I'll have to keep my eye open for a pipe, I have a friend who owns an atv salvage yard I can hit up.
