atrain40:
I have a 1991 kx500 that has a procircuit header and silencer. the problem is in CA many places need a SA, the silencer doesnt have that. so i was wanting to know if i could just replace the silencer with a stock one or any other kind and would it fit fine. thanks.

Motorrad:
The stock silencer does not have a spark arrestor...

Any aftermarket silencer with a spark arrestor  I.E. FMF turbine core, Pro circuit has a few also  will fit right on what ever pipe it is you have..

The other option is to get a Sparky and weld, screw, rivit, etc  it on to your original pipe, also a good option

 I use a  pro circut 296 spark arrestor, the decibles will pass the test and the spark arrestor passes the test.  It is a direct bolt on in place of the regular silencer.
 I have not tried any other brand of spark arrestor and hope others will comment on what they use.

What is the decible limit and what did your bike score?

I run a Pro Circuit Nature Friendly Spark Arrestor on my Kx5. Michigan has a 94db limit for sound. When I go to the sand dunes the ranger just waves me by without checking the sound. Only looks at the arrestor and sees it's a compliant one. My only complaint is my rear tire rubs on it, but I might be able to shim it out some.
