What would be better a HMF or a Curtis Sparks for a pipe on my honda??? ???
small suggestion,,,,"Tech Corner" would probably be a better spot for this question,,,second, I thought you were getting the Zuki 450?
on the waiting list and all.
Id@
My dad is keeping the quad for him self :P
why are you asking sparks or hmf! you already said you ordered an HMF ???! so there is your answer so keep your thought to yourself!
I would say that if HMF is really 104 db like you say in another post, and sparks is 97 or so db, go with the sparks. I know every kid want's a loud exhaust, but if you plan on going anywhere besides a track, you're not doing anyone a favor with the loud exhaust. One of the biggest complaints people have with ATV's is loud exhaust, they don't want to hear it. The only thing it does is contribute to more trail closures, so do us all a favor, even the pro racers are concerned with sound level, keep it quiet. Remember, loud doesn't mean more power.
LMAO dude ur a dum lil kid hahahhahaha
104 db yea right
the hmf on a 400ex it is 104 db
i have one on my rancher and its not loud at all
who told u it was 104 for a 250ex?
they r proble on drugs
also i have ridin 2 300ex (biger then ur 250 so it would be louder) that had an hmf on it and the other had a Curtis Sparks and the sparks was alot louder

You can ask if you want the HMF gives you 4hp but it was really cheap I am asking cuz i can always return it and get the curtis
Kool.
i have an hmf slip on on my 300ex. it is so freaking nice, loud but nice. all my niehbors hate me but thats cuz im dead sexy lol
Why dont you run with your stock pipe :N
Holes in the pipe makes it faster and louder ;)
Oh yea you should make a "Thread" about how to install a Jet-Kit ;)
Kool.
Maby maby not I might let the dealer do it but they dont know there @$$ from there ELBOW and even if they did it would be too expensive!!
The jetting you could do yourself, if you dont you WILL be charged up the ass, because they have to find out where it runs the best at.
The pipe, really easy. I would say about 4 bolts and thats it.
i apid sum 1 to jet my atv cuz of my snorkel and only got charged 150 for a jet kit and for him to instal it and for a new exhaust gaskit
Well if I jet my YFZ and something messes up on my quad it wouldn't be covered beacse I jetted it >:(
Is this a ripp off???
Dealer Charges!!!
1.20HR Service $360
2.Pipe installed $70
3.Jet-Kit installed $110
If I just installed the pipe I would save alot of money :-\
if you want someone to jet your bike my mechanic can do it. hes awsome just ask the maverik. ;) he charges alot less that other places. hes a master harely tech. just let me know maybee we can set it up. ;D

find a different atv shop to take it to! 360 in labor is 2 much, my dad payed 360 just in labor and 345 in parts to after i wrecked my cr 85 and that is WAY to much >:( so i dont take it to that place anymore, just call places and ask how much they charge to do it, or get jakes mechanic...we all know he has had a lot of practice working on his 04 :D :D ;)
i can deff. say he knows the 450 inside and out. he has takin that engine completly aprt every bolt. and he put it all back together in 1 night. ;) he also knows the raptor350 inside out.lol
hes really good with any bike. ;)

well u and the dealer have something in common...and jets rent hard to change u take ur carb find them unscrew the old1s and scrw in the new 1s and set them to how ever they r the best
Why would you put a pipe on a 250ex ??? :-\ ::) ??? :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\
yea very good question
i mean just buy a new bike thats wut i did
all i put on my blaster wus pipe and tires then i stopped and bought a 350
Well I am going to wait for the 2007 LT-R 450 because the waiting list is to long and their might be problems. OH.......I forgot to tell you that my stock pipe got a hole in it :D I got a plug know soo that wont happen again ;)
Do I need to come over and help you put your tin can HMF on??
I got it and I tryed to put it on for like an hour, 2 days ago and know I spent 2 hours trying to get it right. First I had a problem with it being to short by 1/2 inch, so I could not screw on the canister but today I could screw the canister in place but the header wasnt getting in properly and so they had a 3/4 inch gap between where you connect the canister to the header >:( Know Im mad because I got a HMF :-\
try leaving all the bolts loose until you get everything installed. Don't tighten till all the bolts are in...that may give you enough play to get everything lined up...tighten at that point
thats kinda sad u got to blame hmf cuz u dont know how to put a pipe on
wut he said^
ya they r right u don't have to blame HMF because u don't know how to install a pipe. HMF is a great company and this could of happened to anybody.
I went over his house and put the HMF on pefectly but it sounds like exhuast is leaking ou t of the header where it bolts on to the cylinder.. I tried tightning it but same thing what happen it would be really loud like your running just a header with no pipe ???
I think the first time her tried to install it he over-tightened it and the piece that bolts on to the cylinder bened and screwed up something....
If you guys know what is wrong please tell HONDA250EX cuz he has no clue what's his doing...... ;)
did u guys put a gasket on?
or like u said he tried to tighten it and he bent it so thats the reason, so u shoud try to bend it back for him since he doesn't know how to do it, and see if that works.
hahhahahahah its the gasket
my dog got ahold of mine and it was gone but u cant install it with out it jsut call up hmf and ask for one
It's probably the Gasket cuz its leaking out and a sh*t loud of noise out of the header insted of the canister ::)
the gasket is the problem!
You guys are morons.

Wants to get a '07 LTR 450 ;) That's not happening anytime soon 8)
i would never put all that stuff on a 250ex, they're right sell that thing and go get ur self a nice 300ex or 450.
I just can't see a 12 year old on a LT-R450. Thats just asking for an injury. If you get anything, you should go more towards a Z/KFX400 or 400EX. You would probably have more fun on a Z/KFX400 than a 400EX.
