PC Platinum 2 Pipe
Motoroost1:
It's actually less expensive to buy a new pipe than to replate the old one in my area . It's not a big deal anyway . I've had good performance with PC pipes on my 2007 KX250 , so that's why I had asked about the PC for the K5 . If a PC pipe was readily available and competitively priced , I would likely give it a try just to see how it worked compared to the Gnarly . It's not readily available without extra cost and effort ( import it from a U.S. dealer and pay shipping , customs and tax ) , so , I'll likely just stick with the Gnarly and move on . I can get a replacement Gnarly ( either version ) within 2 days . The bike works great as it is and I have little to complain about regarding it's performance . Anyway , we'll see what happens .

Greencannon, interesting comments on the stock pipe. I actually like the look of the stocker, with that bend in it also. I'm a low to mid guy...it makes a difference, eh? I just rebuilt the bike and have only ridden it with the Pro Circuit pipe. I experienced the same thing with my CR480. I much prefer the stocker over the considerably fatter-looking DG. Ran the DG once and sold it. Put the stocker back on and was happy.

anyone know what is the hp gain with the platinum 2 ?
Motoroost1:
I've got a stock pipe ( came with the bike ) and I might just throw it on to see how it works compared to the Gnarly .
