perfomance exhaust issues

[jackthekipper]

greetings,got a px 200 fitted with a 210 malossi kit with a pm evolution expansion pipe fitted running on a 130 main jet.the pipe is finally knackered after 7 years of abuse..have been looking at getting a right hand exhaust to stop all the pain of changing the rear wheel ..seen a stirling at £130 ...and a revolver at £170.. has anyone got any advice on these pipes ???any help will be much appreciated...cheers

Revolver have the better reputation, but I can't say I've tried either.

hi jack its been a while since you were on here phil has a few decent pipes on his top shelf i nearly bought a shiny chrome one off him the other day then i saw sense lol .i know the sterling and is a good pipe the revolver is supposed to be better performance wise. only downside i can see on the revolver is you cant change out the end can were as you can on the sterling thats providing you don't buy the chrome version as i think that's welded on like the revolver

Both of these have good mid and top end performance but would not recommend going for any stainless pipe, as they tend to crack.

[jackthekipper]

the revolver pipe is also done in mild steel ( same price )...maybe I should go for that eh' ?

if i were buying one and had the choice id go for the revolver in mild steel over the sterling m8 but if you do you can not park out side my house or i will have the lads ready to nick it lol

stainless always sounds a "good idea" when thinking of buying a shiny pipe,but as mentioned in another thread on here,cant member which one, the chrome in steel makes em brittle an prone to crack as pxguru says ,so if still wanting st/steel ya need to go more expensive types that have 2 mounts so theres less flexing .if ya win lottery if memory serves the bgm right hand exit 1 is 355 but comes with a lifetimes garantee ,so if ya keep the scoot,tidy lookin by the way,always prefer the older rear light units vbb/sprint/super anything but the px/rally box 1's, an dont mess with the exhaust it will be the last 1 ya need to buy.should pay for itself in 10-12 years .

good choice jacktheripper love mine look good sound good and perform great only downfall i've had was my ss end can cracked on the weld where it angles up as it comes out of the mild steel pipe on way back from the cleethorpes rally rang tsr up explaining what happened and they asked for a photo and sent me a new one out cant sing there praises enough

[jackthekipper]

got the revolver pipe fit on after 3 hours of swearing & butchering me fingers up..but well worth it..and very impressed with the performance..as seen..i opted for the stainless one after hours of googling the ups & downs..out of mild steel & stainless the shiney one came out tops for lasting longer..will see eh'

I found this web page on a performance test of fourteen different exhausts for a P200, and thought if share it.

That's very old. Most of those pipes aren't made any longer, and the market leader (SIP Road) isn't tested.
