If I were one of you fancy AF guys, I'd be all over this awesomeness...  I'm prolly late with this, but if you haven't seen it yet, enjoy. 8-)

Those of you with knowledge, how hard would this be to mount on a KX5?  I'm really interested in going this route when I get my motor built.

Any of you guys near Morgan, UT?  Mike at CPI said he never fitted one to a KX5 because he didn't have access to one locally, but he would like to.  He said he sold several cones to KX guys and a couple reported back that they ran great.

On my Service Honda KX500AF the modified FMF pipe based on the CR500 pipe is still a tight fit in a couple of spots and I don't think it is the best tune for the bike. I think in order for CPI to do it right they would need a bike in front of them. I was toying with the idea of seeing if they were interested in building a pipe and letting them use my AF but it's a long drive from Vegas to Salt Lake!

I was very interested in their work and glad you posted about them. I have any 00'800RMK sled I'd like to use their pipes for. I will consider taking my OEM K5 down, but if I were to re-pipe I would prefer a lowboy so I could use the 250 tank, the ZipTy look. It's 180 mile drive for me but I'm looking at some sled parts in Ogden that I could pick-up while down there and save enough to pay for driving.
