I honestly have no idea. I'm a long time rider with many other high performance bikes under my belt. No real idea when it comes to 2 strokes. Bike pulls hard from off idle to the moon. The fmf does a decent job its just startin to look ratty. Porting and exhaust r the next step from what ive seen on here.

Ideally, you'd want a pipe to match the porting on the cylinder. A low-end pipe combined with a high-rev port job makes a lousy combination.

But since you don't know the porting, I'd suggest a basic mid-range pipe with good all-around characteristics. The ESR TRX5 and TRX9 would both work well, with the 9 being designed for slightly higher revs than the 5.

I was really leaning toward a trx 5. Description seems better for style of riding that i do. Mostly tight woods trails and playgrounds. Looking around this forum you guys have some wicked nice quads! Gonna do a complete resto over winter. I hope it turns out as nice as some posted on here. Anyone in the tri-county area of pa look my group up and we'll ride.

Those ESR pipes, you wont find another pipe on the market easier to mount or take off.
That silencer is tuff to.
During a race, another girl stuffed her bikes bumper under the rear of my daughters bike, bumper hit the silencer & it broke the mounting bolt off in the frame. Just a little dimple ding in the bottom of the can all it did, didnt even bend the mount.
