HELLO, I'm sure this topic came up in the past, but I am a new ds 650 owner so please cut me some slack. I was thinking about graydons pipe kit for the ds and was wondering if you all had any thoughts on what would be best for me. I would like to put the smackdown on my friends raptor

so far my bike is stock. I am 6'2" 290# so weight might be a problem?

 

well i love the graydon but what do you get with the graydon kit are you talking about the full pipe or do they have it packaged with a filter system now like alba and whats there price ??? because the alba kit with filter is hard to beat @ 339 to my door !! and it is a good pipe too!!

 

Thanks for the reply, I guess It's not a kit sorry, It's the header pipe and silencer with jet kit then a k&n filter with pre screen for 533.95 to my house.

 

No biggie im screwin up tonight too!! the alba's 439 to my door im not sure of the lasting quality and i know the graydon is good quality but the price of the alba makes it attractive for what you get and it dose look good !!! and either with a filter and jetting should make a noticable diff for you. Don't forget the cdi [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Hey AZ you mean $439 right. Did your pipe come with the straight open endcap. Do you use that or the discs.

 

i think you can get the alba cheaper if you don't need the filter and jets. i have a graydon that i got from jeffroe, and as azsand said it is good quailty. it was very easy to install. i also have a woods pipe, there both loud. i would buy both again. mbrp has a new race pipe that should have some feed back soon, that you might want to check it out.
