so what can i expect from piping my 250R

[danimal95]

i know that when i piped my banshee it literally felt like it doubled the hp:w00t: so what kind of performance increase can i expect from piping my 250R???right now it is stock and to be honest it seems a little underpowered:( it seems that i really have to rpm it or it will bog going into the next gear and cant recover unless i downshift,i am hoping a pipe combo,jets ,and reeds will really wake this thing up.any thoughts?

Oh yah, slap a PT high rev, V force 3's, 38 mil carb and jet according and that thing will become a monster!

you will like it!

i agree with kintore 100%. although for my style riding, i prefer a pipe with better mid-throttle power.

thanks guys,thats exactly what i was wondering.....so how will it compare to my banshee with similar mods?

[TeamGeek6]

Base it on where/how you ride, not the kind of pipe. Tight/slower places = low end pipe. Drags = high end. Ive used Turner 2 and it seems to work well mid and upper.

I ran a full FMF system on my 250R with Boyseen reeds, it deffinetlly woke it up. Stock pipes on those suck.

honeslty it shouldnt bog and sputter like your saying... might be time for new topend? or carb rebuild kit a pipe will definently be noticable

it doesnt sputter,and the only time it bogs is when i go into a tall gear too soon,but i would think it still would be able to recover without downshifting......other than that it runs tip top so i dont think the carb needs to be gone through,after owning a banshee or 2 for the last 15 years i have a pretty good sense of when a carb is in trouble;)

Its only a stock 250, cant shove a high gear on it and expect it to go.

Be careful with that second idea before it costs you a burnt piston. its not about "sense" its about spark plug colors. That carbs bad for flooding./

thanks,what i was getting at is that i am very good at carb work/tuning....banshees are a very high maintenace machine that require constant carb work/cleaning,and im not just "shoving"it in a high gear,it has a fair amount of rpm going into the next gear but apparently not enough,and i was looking for some insight on that aspect of it.
