I am asking for opinions:

What is the Best <u>Sounding</u>, but not too loud (is that a contradiction) Banshee pipe system?

I have heard some awesome, AWESOME sounding Banshees in my travels. I never took notes, because I didn't own a Banshee at the time. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I DO need a USFS approved spark arrestor.

Please post if you have any opinion at all.

I am not as concerned with the nitty gritty performance as the sound because I might not be racing the Banshee, as much as just trying to be &quot;cool&quot; Ha ha [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] (I believe any pipe will be some added performance)

I searched on Banshee pipes and one topic mentioned the 2 into 1 pipe sounding really great. It is hard for me to imagine that, but if anybody can back that up, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
phil

I heard a DynoPort 2 into 1 pipe on a Banshee a few years ago and I must say since then I've wanted a Banshee just to put one of those pipes on it.Sweet Sounding but, hard to explain.

PhilMoore,

If you go to my site, link at the bottom of this post, you'll see, no actually hear a pass that I made in front of my computer mike hanging out my window. At that time, I had the Moto-Fast pipe on my Banshee. They sound awesome, but don't perform as good as the LRD pipes that I had.

This might (if I work it correctly) take you straight to the sound Click here for 2-into-1 pipe sound


Okay, now do you have a favorite sounding Banshee pipe?

Man! bash, why did you have to go and do that? Now I've got that feeling all over again hee hee! Its been along time since I heard it but still gives me chils. I think the 2 into 1 pipes are the sweetest sounds on the planet earth! Why are they not more popular, I thought they gave more lowend power than other pipes and let the mid come on alittle softer?

Hey Phil, Go check out this site to compare sounds of different pipes on a Banshee. These guys also do a great job with videos.

Thanks for the help! That is really what I needed. I took a listen and, yup, the 2 into 1 is totally radical sounding! I love it!!! Now, I have to decide which one... It looks like there are at least three different brands. I definately need a spark arrestor. I also want it to look decent, and be totally clear of my leg, I don't want to get burned!

Does anybody have pictures of the different pipes when they are mounted on the quad?

This is really helpful guys, thanks a LOT!

Phil

PS: I got to ride some on my neighbors MX track today. It is in a field and it is well over a mile long! I was clearing some small doubles, and flying low over a table top. It was a lot of fun, even though I have to keep it under half throttle for about 5 more hours.

I like the sound of the Toomey's. Let's face it though, any banshee with pipes sounds awesome. They truly have a unique sound that let's everyone know they are coming to throw sand in your face
