Mine (the one that got beat, left) is a modified CT race pipe, I bored it out in areas and had to reangle it so the FCR's would fit.

My dad, right on Sparks bike, is using the sparks x-6

If i did it over again i would buy a mbrp full race

Thanks, do you have any dyno readouts for the bikes. I would love to see where they make power and what the HP and torque curves looks like

Nice video!
Same carbs? Same jetting? I'd be very interested in a pipe swap and rematch if you can talk your dad into it.

sorry no dyno readouts, many more videos that will be posted today

Same carbs and similar jetting, I think the difference is not with the pipe but the cam and porting???

Thanks for the compliments, the last videos I posted everyone stated how slow we were running, we had knobbies and were at 7500ft elevation!!!

RaptorFam,
What are the weights between you and your dad?

Are you heavier or is he? Could be some of the difference, but that Sparks does look like it scoots.

You definitely go the holeshot on him though [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

slappie - I'm 195 and my dad is 160, so I definitely weigh more (one place lifting weights is not a benefit)[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] not an excuse though!!!

On china wall, we take off in second and scream up in third.
On olds, we take off in second, third through the whoops, and fourth after the whoops to the top(we are screaming in fourth, moving pretty good)

I know what you mean RaptorFam.

I weigh in at 220 and had to go to a Craycraft 686 just to keep up with my 120 lb friend on his piped 400EX (not really, my Rappy when stock still killed it, but he does make that little EX scream).

I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but did you and your dad ever switch bikes at all? I have a vested interest since I've got a Craycraft too!

Thanks
