Get one from ESR? They still make them. Or try and score one off of Sleaze-Bay.

[CodyJay28]

[Nightbiker07]

lol most of the stuff that went on my bike came from ebay......never had a problem.

[CodyJay28]

lol thanks for the help ful post...

[oldsking86]

Seriously check ESR I'm pretty sure they still make it. If not look at the Paul Turner High Rev pipe or then ebay for a custom sectional. Those will be your best choices ;)

[CodyJay28]

I know they make ATC 5 pipes on ESR site, $250 for them, just wondering if anyone was gettin rid of one. Should i get an esr silencer to go with it?

Also was debating about the high rev pipe with fat boy silencer.

Is one setup better than ther other? or bout the same?

[NOS_350X]

Theres a reason you never see Esr pipes for sell. I see ptr pipes for sell quite often. Go with the ESR. lower hitting powerband and doesnt let off on top. Ptr pipe is too hight hitting of a powerband.

[Dammit!]

I don't know where you're getting your info on Paul Turner High rev pipes. Are you comparing Banshee pipes or something? I've ridden R's with the ESR pipes and they're nice but nothing to write home about. The high rev on my R is not a peaky pipe at all. The biggest improvement over the FMF was actually it added a ton of low end and the power comes on way lower than it did before. Totally smooth delivery and still revs out. Most of the other guys on here with High Revs will tell you the same thing. The name is misleading.

Edit: and where do you see used PT high rev pipes for sale all the time? I looked for a year and only found one that turned out to be a beat up piece of junk. I see them for the TRX sometimes, banshees often, but almost never for a 250R trike. I had an automatic search setup on ebay so everytime anything with the name Paul Turner was listed. Not one single R high rev pipe showed up that entire time (12+ months). The one I eventually did find was mislisted (Paul Tuner).

[CodyJay28]

Well thanks for the info Dammit. I havent really found anything on either of them. Notice like two PT pipes on ebay. Might have to break down and get one off the net. There was a guy on here telling me he had a pt for sell but he takes like 3 days to get back to me lol, duno whats going on with that

[Dammit!]

Be careful when shopping for a used PT. There are three different ones you're going to run into. The High Rev (best one by a mile), the Type 6 and the ones that don't have a name stamped onto them. From what I've seen, The no name ones are usually a type 6 and not the High Rev. Also be warned, the TRX250R pipes DO NOT fit the three wheeler. There are three PT 250R pipes on ebay right now. Only one of those will fit a trike and it's not clear in the pictures which model it is.

[CodyJay28]

the one on ebay u r talking about is with the fat boy silencer and pt pipe right? pretty cheap rightnow...doesnt say what kind, looks alright tho

[Dammit!]

The only one I see for a trike has a FMF silencer.

[NOS_350X]

Dammit put a ESR pipe on your bike then come back to me.

From the bikes ive built and riden the ESR is much smoother than a pt high rev. You gota rember ive riden more 250r's than just yours. I dont like the power comming out of a pt, i do like what comes out of a esr. Sorry we dissagree try an esr then talk *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited* about it.

[CodyJay28]

there is
ATC 250R 250 R ATC250R Exhaust Pipe & Silencer
and
PAUL TURNER EXHAUST PIPE 250R HONDA 250 R ATC ATC250R

[Dammit!]

Sorry we dissagree try an esr then talk *Edited**Edited**Edited**Edited* about it.

Bring one to Rasor Road in January and we'll do a real test. :naughty:

[NINJA]

Then post a vid of it on here.

[Dammit!]

Then post a vid of it on here.

I meant a video of the big showdown:w00t:

It'd have to be on the same bike to do a proper comparison. My money is on the High Rev being better through the entire powerband but there's only one way to find out for sure.

[NINJA]

I misunderstood, it sounded like a little bit of bad blood between you two. I was hoping to see a drag race.

[Dammit!]

it sounded like a little bit of bad blood between you two.

Nah. NOS was just PMS'ing I think. :welcome: :D

[NOS_350X]

No bad blood, doug is actualy one of the best guys ive met in the 3wheeler community. I dont think anyone would say otherwise.

It was just one of those days for me.

Ive actualy talked to ESR and trying to get them to donate a pipe to raffle. Maby doug you could show the pipe off a bit. If we get one to raffle.

IMO they both are pipes a step above the rest. But i recomend the esr over the pt

[RideRed250R]

dougs a azz lol
NE WAYS onto the pipe thing
I love the ESR or CT, i love the CT cause it flows a HECK of alot more, the PT fits like square peg in a round hole (both the pipe and peg require the use of a hammer)..... ct bolts on, huge sectional pipe, BEST on the market in my opinion, and a HECK of alot cheaper then the rest out there

[CodyJay28]

what is ct>??

[RedRider_AK]

what is ct>??

CT Racing.

[kxt250r]

how does the DG compare with the ESR,PT,CT pipes?
also which sounds the best??

[RedRider_AK]

DG is a "stock replacement", not really a high-performance pipe. The ESR, CT and PT pipes all blow the DG's outta the water.

[NOS_350X]

Sound depends on what you like. i dono aobut the ct, but the ESR has a lound ping sound where the pt dosent and sounds just a hair deper tone.

[ceaserthethird]

Sorry Bro i was going to sell you my PT Hi Rev but it's 1 of the frist they made , So i'm going to keep it as a Collector's Item .

Any Who , Just Buy A Got Dam PIPE All Ready .... Gee Come on people :lol:

PT or ESR you can't go wrong their Both GAY :rolleyes:

[CodyJay28]

lol why didnt you ever freaking get back to me and tell me you were going to keep it...punk

[ceaserthethird]

i just found out when i posted my pervious thread ;)

[ceaserthethird]

Ahhhh Codyyyyy did you buy the PIPE yet ?

[250rfan]

Did Curtis Sparks ever make a pipe for the 85/86 250r or any trike for that matter?

[CodyJay28]

[CodyJay28]
