someone can tell me what the best exhaust system to put on ATC250R 1985..I know about DG system, FMF and i see on some trike pictures here on the board a ESR kit.. (EDOG)

Which one is better, i have a 250R with a full FMF system (Exhaust and silencer), i know where to buy DG and FMF, but i never see ESR kit anywhere

thanks

Paul Turners High rev's are highly sought after and very nice top end oriented (pending model)

ESR- Eddie Sanders Racing makes alota nice pipes with a wide power range as well

FMF- I found to be a nice all around pipe and shouldnt be discarded at all,

i just went to put an older signature series fmf pipe and silencer. i had a new pro design exhaust gasket with 2 o rings. the pipe wouldn't fit. i wouldn't even go over the second o ring. it riped the first one. i cleaned all the carbon out of the pipe before i tried to put it on. anyone else have this problem?

On my 85 250R I have ran a stock pipe, DG, FMF and ESR. ESR is my favorite by far. Buy them at www.esr250.com. Prices have went up recently.

And near nothing for the Tecate....that's why I'm going to to an R.

I've used DG, Coffman's, and PT Hi-Rev on past R's. Thinking of giving the ESR pipe a try next.

the power band off the PT high rev was too high or the power band of the FMF?

the turner has a very smooth powerband,, just way to high in the RPM range for her,,, i have to agree,, the fmf had way more midrange grunt,, so i will see how it does with the 310,,, if its the same ,,, its for sale,,,

I bought the last pipe and muffler they made.

They said it would be awhile before they make more.
