How good is the esr trx9r pipe and in frame silencer,I have one but I'm not sure if I'll use it if it isn't anygood,info would be great.I'm mostly woods riding,thank you.
Decent pipe...I like the '5' better; for a stamped pipe, the '5' and '9' are good options. I personally don't care for IF pipes, the regular mount pipes are a better choice INO...

Curious as to why you would say that Carlos...For my application the in frame has worked awesome for me...Never had a problem with the silencer hitting the caliper either.... Actually the only time I dented a silencer was because some rookie tried to drive through me instead of around me....
 
Not a question of if it works or not...like you stated an IF works fine.

However; an IF pipe (no matter whose IF Pipe) severely limits your 'Eliminator Kit' or Intake design. For one you can not run an airbox...this is not good for some riding applications. Second you need to remove the Coolant Reservoir (not a big deal), and most important in my book is any type of intake system that utilizes a funnel type design, large airfilter, or any large intake that needs the inner frame space to properly fit, thereby improving air/fuel flow can NOT be used. You are limited to straight out the carb, very simple 'eliminator' type of intakes.

You give up performance increase potential(s) when you limit the intake designs you can use with an IF pipe, the performance gains of a properly designed BDT Racing Intake system (as shown in the two pics below) outweigh any IF pipe gains you may see (and seeing any IF pipe gains is almost impossible except for a slight engine operating temperature drop of -10F)...IMO

How much is the intake system shown in the pic,
Complete BDT WURKS Intake system with Real K&N Airfilter & Outer Wear, Hose, all SS Clamps for ATC250R 85-86 or TRX250R 86-89 is available in Semi-Gloss Black (as shown in the pics post #5), Triple Chromed, or Raw (WURKS look just like the BDT Pipes).

Triple Chrome: $225
Powder Coated Semi-Gloss Black: $210
Raw WURKS Look: $190

Note: the BDT WURKS Intake is Hand Cut, Fusion Welded and Formed to a Smooth Constant Curve for the 'BEST" airflow (NOT like competitors 'Choopy' versions), they come with Real K&N Airfilters & Outer Wear, and 100% Made In The USA.

Carlos, maybe it's hard for you to understand but whenever someone ask's a question it doesn't always mean their looking for you to turn it into a for sale thread for your products. The OP is asking about weather or not the TRX9 pipe is ok to use for woods riding & he got his answer. He asked nothing about your intakes, that was asked by another member & the proper thing to do would of been to send that member a PM instead of trying to sell your parts here. You have your own section, show some integrity & keep your stuff there.

That's your opinion and you are entitled to it....I was only answering two questions posed by two different members. Don't make more out of it than it is.

Wow.Thats a little harsh no.Every month Carlos puts up a prize for qotm,and always helps people out with any kinds of problems.He definitely does a lot for the 250r community.its not like his parts are junk,if he wants to suggest parts to people,so be it.He has been in the game for quite a while.I think he deserves to show people,what parts he has to offer anywhere on this site he wants to.
 
Sure thing one way to solve the problem would be to just make like most vendor does, by private message, or just tell people to call them at the shop, it would remove most of the "publicity" in post that some guys dont like and still do the trick... we have a forum too here in qc with some sponsor, i gotta say that they dont bitch at each othen "between the line" openly in forum.


Someone asked carlos about his intake, he could just said "call me for info" or proceeded by private message....

He first posted the pict to show how center pipe are "bad" because of the low size of filter ... Dont jump on every little thing he does...

Im just trying to say how thing could be done to make no more raging post.... getting anoying its almost in all post those day...

sorry if you dont get what im trying to say but im not use to psycological speach:p
 
Sure Carlos could pm a person with info on a part but honestly who really gives a shit if he throws out a post about his product and services in a thread. I mean come on we are all big boys here. What is it really hurting anyone if he does that as long as it doesn't go back and forth with 10 or 15 posts and a transaction then what is it really hurting. Its not a huge catastrophe to any thread. Its simply offering a product and some help to someone that may be in need. Who really cares if Carlos is trying to promote his products throughout different threads. I'm sooo tired of hearing soo many people bitching and crying about minoot petty things. Just over look the post or two when Carlos offers up his options/products/services to people even if the thread isn't about that. I don't know maybe I'm crazy but I just don't see a problem with what he does. Sure everything has its place and time to be discussed but this really isnt a big deal. It seems like some people are always trying to stir up shit and cause an argument or at very least spread negativity. Just let it go already. If some dislike Carlos OK so be it but I think all the petty bullshit needs to stop. That's my 2¢ although I'm sure no one will see it my way.
