The crf250 comes to mind. Pretty much a waste of material if you ask me.

tried fitting it on nicks 250f build, wasnt going to work, the gnarly would have needed to be shortened something like 1.5" to do it, but he did use the rh side muffler on the gnarly after using a stock pipe from the front of a stock silencer

As far as noise level is concerned...I say way to go man! I've never heard a twin piped CR500, but I imagine it running as quiet if not quieter than the OEM muffler. Which kicks ass IMO.
I've got a good pic of a twin piped CR500 setup...but photobucket isn't opening for me. Maybe in a couple hours?

the single side of the 250f that nick is running is the "open" muffler of the two, just as loud as my new powercore if not louder

Some guy on the other site did it to his build- personally I think it looks pretty cool but not worth the effort.

...well I fucking quite!

Been trying to post the pic here all day long and I don't know if it's photobucket or the forum but it won't copy shit onto my posts. I've tried to back door it...spell it all out manually...it don't make a difference. The best I get is an icon that says the photo has been removed, which it clearly hasn't!
Anyways...yay for twin pipes, 90hp motors and Micheal "boy loving" Jackson...
