Favorite Spark Arrestor

(1/3) > >>

gmtexas:
I have to buy a spark arrestor to ride in state and private parks. Is there any performance or sound differences between PC or FMF. I think I also read about a weld on sparky in the forums somewhere. I am currently running the PC " with the big dent" model pipe.

Thank You: Greg :roll:

Has anyone seen or used one of the new Pro Circuit 296 silencers?

They have a spark arrester built into them and don't seem as long as the normal sparky equiped silencers.

I would value anyones opinion on them as they are aparently quieter than standard as well and as I use my KX on the road it might keep Dibble off my back :D

FMF Turbine Core II.  All I have ever used, and always passes the sound test at the ISDE events which is required to enjoy the festivities.  On some other PC equiped models, I have seen folks stuff rags in the air box in order to get the bike to pass, and then use the first few minutes before their start to covertly remove the rags for running the event.

I put a FMF Turbine Core II on my 01 before my Galmis trip and I was pleased with the results! I didn't see any loss in power and it was quit a bit quieter than the OEM muffler!

Alan :D

I've used both on my 2002 K5 and I think the FMF was quieter and flowed a little better too. I like the PC look better, but the FMF's a better performance choice.
