Title: Best Pipe for 2002 KX-500
Post by: Greg Greene on March 26, 2006, 11:53:49 PM

Guys,

I will be riding tight technical trails in NC/SC, and would like some advice on which of the following pipes are better for this application?

FMF Gnarly

Pro Circuit Platinum 2

Thanks for any responses...

Greg

I don't like neither, but for the application you are talking. The Gnarly is your best pick. It seems to have a thicker wall and will absorb dents better, along with boosting your low-mid range power.

Pro Circuit Platinum 2 has the same features of the FMF Gnarly.

FMF Gnarly Rev (desert). Thick walled Fatty, with a hint of topend goodness.
