You might make it work, but its gonna be loud. That pipe is a lot bigger than the 230 pipe.

I don't know the pipe diameter, but I'll measure and post back later.

It wasn't a terribly accurate measurement but I got about 1.25". I wonder how well I could modify it to work....

I got 1.125. You need something for a 250.

Or, he was measuring OD, not ID?

That looks like you could get it to work. I am unsure if it is worth that, but you know what they say, it is only worth what somebody is willing to pay.

If I redo mine I was looking at one that Super Trap offers. It is an universal that takes discs at the end like the FMF's for tuning and sound.

I made my wife proud yesterday! I brought home a stray, ATV that is. Me and some team mates took the race car engine up tot he engine builder yesterday, and sitting outside is a Suzuki quadsport, with the engine, gas tank, and hood missing. Everything else was there. I aksed him who's it was and he said mine if I wanted to take it home. So needless to say I took it. newer tires, the rims look in great condition, swing arm, carrier, and brake caliper look great! Even the shift linkage is solid. I am unsure what year it is, it has the later carrier style is orange, but has a regular rear shock and a throttle with the light switch on it. (?) any ideas? I will try to post pictures, but am unsure how. ANybody know?

Supertrapp makes good stuff.

Cool find! The VIN should be on the frame. 10th digit is the year. Sounds like an 87 or 88 with the later carrier style.

To post pics you need a free account at photobucket or one of the other file hosting sites.

Careful though, might end up like me, many carcasses, but not a running beast to be seen![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

Picked up the pipe today for $50 and its in super nice shape. I'm going to see what I can do on it tomorrow. I'll let you guys know.
