Tri-Z mystery pipe finally came! Lets identify it......More pics page 2

[ATC-Eric]

Would like to identify this pipe.


Heres the ebay member I stole it from:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=160303184914&ih=006&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&viewitem=


My camera has about had it, so the pics kinda suck.

Ill get more detailed ones up tonight hopefully, use my sisters nice camera.

Theres 2 stampings on the system. One one the pipe mount that says "10 85" (build date I assume) and the other is on the silencer, says "ZZ".

The bigbore Z is getting a port job right now, so Im not going to put this pipe on for a bit. Im gonna run the bike with my normal DG so I can feel the port improvement, then after brake-in is acheived at Glamis Im gonna slap this sucker on to see how it performs. Im real excited about it.

Looks beefy! And in good shape - only notice one small dent. Congrats!

[Blown 331]

That is awesome! What a steal. I kinda wanted it but forgot about it. lol. I need to get my top end done first anyway. I got my piston yesterday and the jug is going to the machine shop tomorrow.
My dad has a stud welder. I plan on using it on dents like that. Just weld a stud in the center of the dent. Maybe heat it up a bit then pop it out with a slide hammer. There is a place in Belleville IL that does cheap chroming too. It's not super nice though. It looks slightly yellow compared to the chrome on my Harley but I think it'd look great on an offroad bike. If I ever get a decent old sectional pipe I'm gonna try popping any dents with my dads puller then have it chromed.

[mike from long island]

Looks like a DG :lol: Some kind of sectional???? And for a great price!!

[blue27]

Jemco would be my guess, look to see if that is stamped on it.

:drool: Wow, that was a deal.

[ATC-Eric]

Nope, no stamps except date, and ZZ.


Its really full of crap, been run a LOT I assume. Im probably going to clean it out, strip it, and get it ceramic coated, or just paint it black. Dont know just yet.....

[Tri-ZNate]

shweet. Glad to see you finally got it.

[ATC-Eric]

me too! According to the tracking info, it spent 5 days in Colorado for some reason!

maybe someone in shipping came across it and decided to make a ride report:D

that thing should produce some nice power, its bigger than fat albert, hey, hey, hey lol

[trike moto]

Maybe a old toomey I had a blaster pipe that had the same kind of build well i was told it was a toomey. Maybe its not just trying to help!!!

[ATC-Eric]

Thanks for your help Trike Moto, any ideas are welcome in here.

And Pilot, thats what Im thinkin. Suckers real short and fat!

[Billy Golightly]

That looks very similar to a CRF brand Tri-Z pipe I had in my hands a few years ago. Possibly a Klemm as well? The CRF and Klemm both had very similar bends.

[Tri-ZNate]

I spent a few hours when the auction was up trying to I.d. it, and based on pics the crf has "Crf" stamped into it and neither the klemm's nor crf's sections line up to Eric's. Maybe its an "Answer", never seen one for a Z

go through that thread and match 'em

[Tri-Z Pilot]

maybe its a pipe sent back to earth to take out a gang of R's and Tec3's that sent it to the grave! like that movie The Wraith with Charlie Sheen in the 80s. ever seen it? awesome movie, its on youtube too, check it out

[factoryX]

freaking monster...

wwwhhhaaatttt? are you high on crack? thats a classic. 80's movies rocked! what movie is this quote from- Johnny, sweep the leg! lol

[ATC-Eric]

Got nothin...... And I watch a LOT of movies!



The wraith wasnt bad, I enjoyed all the 3 or so times Ive seen it. Enjoyable enough to watch it all the way through shens

[Shawn72]

Maybe this pipe is the Terminator in disguise? "IT DOES NOT FEEL PAIN OR REMORSE, IT CANNOT BE REASONED WITH" HA HA HA

[Tri-Z Pilot]

oh boy what did i start? :lol: this quote will give the movie away- wax on, wax off :D

[ATC-Eric]

I feel really stupid guessing TMNT at this point..... sigh.

[Tri-Z Pilot]

[Nomad]

Congrats on the pipe! And I was hoping I was the only one who noticed it. At least now I know that you're the one who outbid me. You're lucky I wasn't home SOB! LOL! Let us know how it rips!

[ATC-Eric]

Yeah, Im happy about that. I was worried somebody had a large bid on it.



Ill have a full ride report by mid January.

[HondaHarry]

Im gonna vote for Jemco. :)

[zmpolaristech]

If the silencer and midpipe are aluminum, it is a coffman. I have one of those coffman silencers kicken around... loud as hell!!! way to small of a silencer for a 250, IMO. Not sure about the pipe.

[zmpolaristech]

just looked at the ebay auction link. I am almost POSITIVE that is a coffman silencer.

[greenhuman]

I will bet someone else's left nut that it's a PK system.

[Nomad]

Yeah, Im happy about that. I was worried somebody had a large bid on it.
- ATC-Eric

Yeah, I didn't go big on the bid b/c I already have 2 DG's, 2 stockers, a klemm research, and a another pipe I got off of ebay for a dollar. It looks exactly like the one on zmpolaristech's Z. I only have two Tri-Z's and one is getting the works from Sprock, and that one's probably gonna get a Jemco pipe.

I also have a silencer like that kickin around here somewhere and zmpolaristech is right, way to loud!

[ATC-Eric]

Thats cool guys, thanks for the insight.

Thanks for the replys.
