What's a 250sx Cobra full exhaust worth?

[mmiguy2103]

So basically it's what the post title says. I have a brand new never been installed Cobra full exhaust for a Honda 250sx. It's a full exhaust including the header and silencer.
Still in the box. Just kind of wondering how much this thing would be worth if I we're going to sell it? Not sure I'm selling it just yet. I bought it about 9 years ago and literally never got around to installing it and just ended up keeping the stock exhaust.

Interested if you still have it.

The SX is more of a sport/utility model, most guys like to keep them quiet.

But, I'm sure someone would love to have it, I had one on my 87 SX but it was obnoxiously loud and I swapped over to a SuperTrapp

[mmiguy2103]

Totally agree I am not really Into loud exhausts anymore..

what would this go for? Any ideas?

I'd be interested in it if it's not new price, but I'm a bit late to the party lol.

I bought a 250es with a cobra, and it sounds just fine to me, like just a tiny bit louder than stock. The DG on my 350x is loud as hell though, I don't get why cobra has the reputation of being stupid loud, maybe mine is just plugged up or the 250es one is just their quietest model?

Anyway, price wise, I suspect if you don't mind the wait, you could throw it on ebay for what you paid for it and list it as NOS and you'd eventually sell it with a 15% loss on ebay/paypal fees and shipping if you cover that on your side.

Just a couple listings to kind of see what the market is doing. On the cheaper end, nice looking exhaust but the guy has no clue what machine it's for, this is more my price range lol.

On the other side, a clearly used exhaust for nearly double the price, but it's for a 3 wheeler.

Here's a few sold listings, seems like the general price is $100-150, I saw one spike to $200 for an ATC70. None are actually new, just really good shape.

Thanks a lot for the reply and posting some links to other eBay exhaust. Like I said in my original post I don't think I'm going to sell it right away I was just wondering what these were going for in a brand new condition. I'll probably hold on to it for now.

Not a problem at all, I guess it's in my blood to research things out like that. Not exact matches since there is none listed, but gives an idea. I don't blame ya if you want to keep it. Did Cobra go out of business or something? I actually really enjoy the Cobra on my 250ES. The carb is tuned well on that machine, it's one of the best runners I have. Maybe a tiny bit on the loud side, but not bad enough to bug me, and I don't like mega phone exhausts.

Cobra still makes plenty of exhausts just not for old 3 wheelers.

Awe that sucks, I guess DG was probably cheaper or something so they were the middle of the road price that not many people bought or something.
