I would have a Hand Made Coned Pipe for the CR500R. No off the shelf pipe currently made is suited IMO, nor will fit properly with a CR500R engine in a TRX250R frame. Plus the pipe should be built on the correct TRX250R year frame with a CR500R engine in place to get the proper fitment.

I built my own pipe for my ATC500R using a book by Alexander Graham Bell. I am not an experienced pipe builder, but I can mig weld sheet metal pretty well. It turned out just fine.
Any way, that part was easy and fun compared to coming up with a good kickstarter set-up. Never did............
