Just wanting some opinions on whether I should throw a slip-on on my 250R? Ive got a fender eliminator to throw on it but what do you all think about getting the slip-on? Any power gains? I know its only a 250 but its a fun toy nonetheless... If so what do you recommend? Its only got 500k's on it so if I do get it done probs at the first 1000k service... Am I just throwing money away?

Depends on how long you're going to ride it... More than 12 months then i'd say yes.

It's also a "safety" thing - the louder the pipe, the better chance a cager will hear you.

yea.. if ur only keeping it 12 mth, id say stick the cost of a slip on towards a new bike... or good gear, or rider training...

otherwise.. if u really wanna do it.. .do it!!

(no matter what we say, as a motorcyclist u will do wot u want anyway...hahahaha)

Ill have the bike for at least 18 months so I probably will...

Go the slip on, but keep all the original gear wraped up & kept safely ...4 reasons

Makes for easy sale if all OEM gear goes with the bike
Shows the potential buyer you have taken care
If you get slapped with a defect notice you can use the original for an inspection
Spares parts should you have a crash... but you wont

Agreed, im keeping my oem pipe for all those reasons, especially for rego renewal.pink slip time.

Thanx for the advice!

Two Bros make a can for the little beast. Sounds awesome too..

Ordered the Yoshi only cause the dealer uses them..... Not too fussed either way, just didnt want it sounding like a lawn mower anymore

hey blue 14... ive found some good websitets from the US where i can get the two bros for a good price..... i reckon the two bros will make it sound a lil more meaty.... we'll have to compare when we both have it done rob... we can always swap bikes if need be

haha

ahh fun times..........

Got the fender eliminator on this arvo. Yoshi pipe still 2 weeks away Ill try and take a pic tonight and upload it! The bike looks 1000 times better without the mudguard!

^^ probably go faster with the less wind resistance
