hey i was wondering if anyone has heard an alba pipe on a z400. my boyfriend has a z and i want to get one, and we both want put alba pipes on them, but first we wana hear them? so if anyone has heard could you try and send a audio file of it? thanks, mindy

 

Their one of the loudest pipes you can buy, ill tell ya that.

 

VERY LOUD. my friend had one but he took his offf because when we were done riding he said his ears were ringing.

 

they're quite loud. was next to one and all I heard was their pipe over mine

 

rly? so they would be louder than a Yoshi pipe huh? thats cool. i really like the flame graphics kit for the yellow Z's, my b/f just got his, and we are anxious to see what it will look like once it is on!

 

My alba pipe is super loud but at the desert it doesnt bother me. When I am riding trails i put the quiet core in the pipe and it is not too bad at all, a little slower though. I think it is a good pipe but like the majority of people out there(im speculating) its the only pipe i have ever bought so how the hell do I know! My bike is a lot faster now though!

I just put the Alba Stage 3 pipe kit on my z400 today. Came with a needle, .160 main, K&N, Outerwears. It's freaking loud. Work my daughter up. (oops) I am going to the Oregon Dunes this weekend to try it out. I don't know if I'll be able to get an audio of it but there may be some pictures taken.

 

really? thats awesome! have fun at the dunes. i wish i could go there sometime, but i gotta move comming up and thatll be enough trouble for a while... lol. butmaybe once we get settled in i will. they sound fun. but yah, tell me how you like your pipe and stuff after riding it for a while. cant wait to hear back... thanks![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

ok...all I have to say is WOW. I could pull wheelies up hills in 3rd. It's pretty quick. We went down to Horsfall campground near Coos Bay, OR. It decided to hail and snow (at the beach!)...but still really fun. Met some of the other posters on this forum. Really a good time. I strongly recommend the Alba pipe kit. It really woke my bike up.
