pipe experience with hmf
I talked with hmf about a pipe for a twin peaks. They said they don't make one, so I said 700 prairi, they said yes but don't try to put it on a twin peaks or they will dot take any return because it will not fit and you will have to cut plastic but some have bought it and modified there bike but they do not advise it. I called a dealer and had them order it for a prairi on july6. Thought it would come that week. After the next week I called them and dealer. Hmf finally said they were having a problem with the end cap. They gave a tracking # on the 15th. I thought it was coming that week. Here it is now and still no pipe. The ups # expired on the 20th. Hmf said the echo pipe would give 4hp mid and 3 top. Almost as good as the utility pipe without the noise. I say a dyno on 700 prairi on atv nation that showed less than one half of a horse poiwer. Another shop that new them called them and they said that they never dynoed the prairi and where did you get that figure. I don't like being lyed to and being the guinney pig for this pipe. Somebody must have had on to post the dyno. Why they had so many problems building my pipe I don't know. They don't give you a straight answer. ONce they told me 269 plus 20 shipping , the next time he said 289, I paid 269 ples 20. After I say it retailing for 239 from other adds. Does anybody have one of these echo series pipes ?

Thanks John! Yea I like the Pipe and found the service at HMF to be good as well? Ask to speak to Hans he's the owner, atv rider, racer, and very nice guy. Also when you can talk to the owner of a company you know your dealing with a company that cares-IMO. There is no quite core for the HMF Penland Pipe, They have what they call a TRM torque range modifier insert. It may drop the sound a tinny bit but its more for spreading out the power. Also don't spend your money on a slip-on! I found this system quieter and better then the HMF slip-on I had. And you'll be wishing you would have got the full system in the first place! Pass on echo as well,, If performance is what your really looking for? The head pipes and over all design on the Penland along with the Ballance are more performance geared. Ive seen the Twin peaks and don't see any reason why the system wont fit? didn't look like anything was in the way? If you do have to do a little trim'in, It maybe worth it to you? it was for me..
