    Why do you need a pipe? What are you after, performance, bling, noise increase ?? What is the price range??

    More performance mate.I didnt do it when i purchased the bike because i didnt have the cash.I dont want it to be to loud tho.And of course the bling factor.Price isnt really an issue.

    If your looking for a pipe Aido – Barrett pipes are good for when you flip your bike and punch great holes in them – they can actually be repaired (so I have ben told :dry: )

    Barrett do make a good pipe, Australian made and heaps of different colour and cap colour options

    I would also recommend a staintune, I like mine and the packing doesnt fail apart like re packable exhausts

    I can maybe get you a deal on a Barrett if your interested

    Seriously Aido – to look at my pipe after I had done this you would think that it would of been a throw away. But one of our members BigT straightened it welded it and got it all lined back up to fit back on the bike.

    KD has a Staintune on the DR and they are well made pipes too. You couldn’t go to far wrong with either.

    I did have a GYTR on my TTR when I had it which was infact just a re-badged TK pipe – only I probably paid an extra $200 for the privlidge of having GYTR on it :angry:

    Shop around there are plenty of good pipes out there, and nearly all pipe makers would have a listing for a WR.

    Im interested in buying a after market tank for my 09 Wr 4fiddy.Yesterday i got 76klms before hitting reserve and ended up doing 90klms for the day with very little left in the tank.What should i look for and how much will it cost?

    holy heck thats crappy economy aido.you wouldnt even make a morning ride at nundle on that economy.and we take 4fiddies up there with us????
    I take it you did have a full tank when you set out???

    I have an 09 WR450 that gets 80k’s to reserve and drains out at just over 90. So your economy is on par with every other 09 model. I to am considering an after market tank, nothing too big, probably 13 litres.
