wondering which pipe to get?

[dadof2racers]

hey all im looking for a good pipe for a 06 cr85. the boy races outdoor motorcross. I was wonder which pipe would be best for this little bike? does one pipe out perform the other?

The stock pipe is supposed to be pretty good. Perhaps look at other alternatives to make the bike & rider faster? Suspension tuning, lessons on any of the various aspects of racing/riding, cylinder/head work...

i have a frend who uses a fmf fatty with a shorty muffler and said it spread the power a bit and bumped it up almost everywhere

best bang for your buck in increasing lap times....suspension, track time and training... Will beat the snot out of the mod pipe any day.

fmf sst. my brother has an 03 cr85 with one and it really makes the power band hit hard.

The CR85 hits hard STOCK.

ok, so its fine to stay stock then,To tell ya the truth i was just looking for a little bling factor lol..and if i could get a little extra power or a better overall spread at the same time even better.

We had a 2003 CR85 and it came to us with a FMF Fatty and Turbine Core. My son rode an '04 that was stock and really didn't feel much difference. A year later after we had an EG Super Mini build it was a different story :laugh:

Spend the $$ on lessons, track time and suspension because the bling that you can bring in to the house from the podium is cooler.
