Four Stroke Works Pipe
OK so I've been slow getting around to the mods. This weekend I went to 14/47 with new 110 link DID chain and put on a FSW's header and muffler. Totally different bike even without the carby/airbox mods (have the stuff, but no time to install). I can almost keep up with my friends TE510. Pulls great up to 9500, no problem, 60 mph at 6500rpm.
The FSW header is big and fits fine.The muffler is a little close to the rear fender and began to melt it a little..I wondered when I put it on...but I had to ride anyway. I'm a little disappointed in the fit but the sound and performance exceeded my expectations.
My ride was so much fun today that I tweaked my bars and broke the stock hand guards, that was before drowning myself and the bike in a 2 1/2 foot deep mud hole.
Off to my next new thread. Vroooooooom.

RE: Four Stroke Works Pipe
Ummm, am I the only one thinking "Four Stroke Works pipe???" I didn't even know it was an option for our bikes.
I see that http://www.fourstrokeworks.com/ has a full exhaust system for the 97-06 KLX300 for $299 - quiet tip included!
How is it that this pipe has eluded me for so long? And why has it never come up in the Muzzy/Bug Gun/HMF/Staintune discussions?

RE: Four Stroke Works Pipe
I know the page says exhaust system, however the picture only shows the muffler, and they only talk about the muffler, no mention of a headpipe, leads me to believe that the $300 is just for the slip on portion, its another $155 for the head pipe. But this is a good way to go if your budget doesn't allow $450 all at once. Get the 300 headpipe then the slip on, that is if you were already running a 300 stock exhaust............which I am

Right-
I bought the muffler first thinking it was the whole and was surprised. so I got the header. The header is sweet. It's big and black with mounts for the stock heat shield too. Fits great, the muff needs to be tweaked. I might send Jerry my stock to use as a template...he's a likable guy.

How is the volume and quality of sound? Will it wake up the neighbors?
