If you are selling your stock exhaust, pm me.

I have not tried any other system on my 500 and the stock setup is something that I am liking so far. Track or street useage. Until I fell over and put a ding on my left cannister that is. lol I am checking out the sarachu setup for my 250 though

I hit up youtubes exhaust vids for the EX500. I dunno man, the stock setup still sounds good to me and produces good power. The sarachu's or the F1R slip ons did not sound too bad though on the 500. The delkevics were another popular choice out there because of the price.

Chuck, what's the end game, here? Why are you ditching the stocker? Looks? Sound? Performance? All of the above? Are you willing to make other adjustments if the pipe you get results in more noise and less performance?
Not trying to be discouraging. It's been my experience that when you install an aftermarket pipe, unless the planets are in perfect alignment, you WILL need to twiddle with the air/fuel mix. Not a huge deal, but there's (usually) more to it than stuffing-on a new pipe. A lot of guys can get discouraged by this. "Eyes wide open," that's all.....

I was taking it as a little more noise and cool looks over power and weight Jeff. True, the stock cans are abit heavy and stick out like my KZ1000 cans, but they can sing a tune and get damaged quickly.
