i was thinkin of getting a r4 slip on, do you like it, is it louder than a big gun. would i like it better than my big gun?





I have a big gun race series and if anyone wants to trade for an r4 or buy my big gun pm me.

i have an r-r but i cut mine down so now it is louder than a big gun. i dont know for the full size one. i never compared them. but i really like mine and i dont think i would trade it for anything.

well yes i rejetted, but i also have a k&n filter and run without my airbox lid. i dont know about rejettin with just a pipe. just try it without rejettin and if it backfires when u let off then i would definitely rejet as soons as possible.

well, i took pictures of it, but i didnt get the film developed yet. ill try and get my moms digital camera and take some pictures here today. as for performance, i dont think it has quite as much lower end as an e-series, but i believe the same if not better mid to top end. it comes lookin just like an e-series looks as for the finish. i polished mine a little. but ill try to get the pics posted here shortly.

i just got my r4, i cant wait to go put it on, but from the pictures, i was expecting it to be alot shinnier, is there any way to make it look shinnier?

unless ur ridin in sand, it's fine man, just buff it with a cloth or sumthin'. you will really like this pipe. and try it without the screen in the back, it gets louder and you get quite a bit more power without it. you dont even need to rejet for it being out or in its all the same!

if u want to make it shinnier, then polish it. all u have to do is get some mothers mag and aluminum polish and its easy to do.
