Hello!

I want to reduce my bikes noise. Are there any other choices than buying a fmf q stealth? I've got 2003 kx 125, and I am wondering if it would bolt right on. Of course making new brackets for new silencer is not an issue.  I would like to know if the stinger was different in diameter than the 125 one. Fmf does not sell Q stealth for kx 125 which is a pity. I tried to search, no luck.

Pro Circuit 296 S/A. Dont know if they make it for the 125 though. I have one on my 250 and it is definatly quieter than stock.

Could someone measure the outer diameter of the silencer tube, please? I'm pretty sure its the same diameter in every kx 250 silencer regardless of the brand.

This works with your existing silencer.

Thanks you for the measurements! I'm pretty convinced i can fit a 250 silencer without problems!  afro

Those db Dawgs look very cool. But Im not sure if they worked on a 2 stroke. Thx for the tip.

db snorkel. They look real slilly, but from what I have read the are very quiet. Guys that use them say they take away a little snap but really don't hinder power. Its a bit to goofy for me, but look them up. You mite like it or you mite get a good chuckel. grin

I bought a db snorkel to have just in case I don't pass sound check out of state.  Still in the package, I have not tried it.  No sound check in Oklahoma.  It's only for 2 strokes.  Yes it would look goofy but if it means ride or no ride............
