What exhaust do I have?

[DAB516]

I just got my 400 today and it has an aftermarket exhaust on it but has no name on it. I was wondering what kind it is

its an old beat up cobra if i am not mistaken.. :grr: worst exhaust in the world from what ive heard.. invest in something new, at least i would

again i have no knowledge of these exhaust, but from what ive heard.. they suck, and thats an understatement

Yep, it's a Cobra. Are you still able to hear? Those things are damn loud and a POS.

[PismoGuy400]

glad i was not mistaken:D it also looks like a WB exhaust i dont remember what it was called but i think they were onle meant for races or something casue they are so loud... but i dont think theres a way for a WB to look that bad. i know it has alloy in the name its just not coming to me.

anyways good luck on your decision of a new pipe which hopefully you are thinking on..

It's not really that loud and I got the orginal exhaust and header from the seller.

another thing that comes in very very handy is a pressure washer.. no sence geting down oh your hands and knees cause that will be really hard to clean.. only if you were intending to clean it though.. i know people that just say whats the point.. its just gonna get dirty when you ride.. oh well its a matter of personal preference

[DAB516]

I think i read somewhere in the manual that said you shoulded use a pressure washer on the engine

[PismoGuy400]

use it on the widest possible setting.. its like mist, literally. put your hand under it and its fune, might sting a tiny bit but it hasnt harmed a thing.. i just hate cleaning stuff

If you are going to replace that exhaust get something good, like a sparks or HMF.

thats a graydon proline, im am sure of it my pipe looks exactly like it.(except not nearly that dirty heh)

[stonerider250x]

i dont think its a cobra neither cuz their head pipes are normally black.

[phireboi]

its a graydon proline man look on there website on the ones without the turn downs.

Actually, I think your right. It is shaped exactly like the Cobra but the header is different. The Cobra silencers have a different connecting peice to the headers.

Dab516: this is not a Cobra pipe.

yea i would clean her up a lil bit first before you start adding goodies,look at the sprocket in the first pic....wtf is all that stuff on there,lol....but otherwise nice quad.....so what people are telling it is either a cobra,but it is a gp

o yea by the way welcome to the site man,your new addiction maybe?i sure know im addicted as hell

[DAB516]

Yea I diffent think it was a cobra I love the way it sounds. I also have a K&N filter on it. Also it is running synthetic racing oil. Where do I buy this. What am I looking for. How often does it need changed and what are the advantages and disadvantages to running this.
