Cobra or DG (86 200X)

**Lomax** · 03-08-2005, 02:34 PM

Trying to decide, I was leaning on the DG because I am planning on using a DG carb but I dont want to spend the extra money if its not going to make any difference over the Cobra (+ I am a cobra dealer so I can get that one alot cheaper lol). Whats your .02 on the matter

**hrc85250r** · 03-08-2005, 03:18 PM

well, if i were you i would just save up some money and get a dg pipe and carb together and have them jet the carb for the new pipe, that way its all new + you dont need to worry about tuning stuff and you will have the most power you can get from it.....

I have a cobra on my 85 200X and i love the way it sounds and performs!

whatever you do get the aluminum silencer like the aluminum dg rcm or the cobra 4 stroke
or maybe the dg krome
with those paint burnoff wont be such a problem

ye but that dg krome doesnt ad alot of power..it adds alot of noise!!! lol..they are loud! im thinkin the same thing tho for my 84 x..should i get a dg or cobra...ill make up my mind as soon as i get the engine going

I have a cobra on my 86 200x, its the worst!!!! But there is no other option besides a dg or cobra, get the spark arrester attachment for a cobra pipe and its quite a bit quieter.

What about an aluminum super trapp? I like the fact you can tune them (by the amount of discs) performance wise and sound wise and think they look great also.

..........or for $50 you could get a steel one and easily adapt it on to the header pipe.

yea i was looking at those supertrapps....if i buy an exhaust tho i need the hole system...my headpipe was cut off by the jack leg before me..lol

**jenndnn3** · 03-09-2005, 08:33 AM

LOL because we cant get the supertrapp.

Lomax stay with stock and spend your fine earned money elsewhere. Like finding someone that build you an exhaust.

**Lomax** · 03-09-2005, 01:07 PM

My stock pipe is whats left of a head pipe with a 4 inch echo chamber truck exhaust tip on it

. I had thought of maybe trying to adapt an HMF on it, I could take some measurements from the one on my BigBear and see if its possible. The exhaust is a LONG way from being installed as I am tearing back down right now because i decided that I wanted to frame a different color other than the factory red. I just wanted some input because I recived my income tax so I am about to do alot of the motor work and have it ready so I was just going to go ahead and get the exhaust and have it ready and waiting.

what about bassani?

**Lomax** · 03-09-2005, 04:01 PM

I dont know if they make (made) anything or not. I have been looking around on ebay for various parts that I need and I have never seen one.

**BIGCRIP28** · 03-09-2005, 05:25 PM

those bassanis are rare

**willcamach** · 03-09-2005, 07:34 PM

how good is a bassani compared to stock , or the cobra/dg pipes

**vartiak15** · 03-09-2005, 07:38 PM
