SandmanPNW Posted August 8, 2010 Report Posted August 8, 2010 Whats up all, I had every intention of getting R2 pipes over my original decision of T5's. Now I got some T4's for next to nothing and am considering trading them back to Toomey for their T5 upgrade for $320 plus whatever shipping and BS. Also to be taken into consideration, this really chaps my ass.......$325 for cascade silencers.......... so all in it would cost approx. $700 For T5s or 6plus shipping for the R2's??????? HJR dune port 28pwk VF3 lots of other irrelevant stuff. Only ride dunes Thanks Quote
dajogejr Posted August 8, 2010 Report Posted August 8, 2010 1st I'd find out what HJR recommends for your port work, he can tell you what to expect from what pipe and make a recommendation on that. Second, find the stuff used in good shape. Pipes, as long as they're not mangled, can be jet hot coated, chromed, painted, PC'd, etc. Why buy new? Quote

sleeper06 Posted August 8, 2010 Report Posted August 8, 2010 I just put the r2s on my boys bike last night,I bought them just to have around my garage for my test bike.He somehow coaxed me into trying them for a street session,well on a radar gun he picked up 7mph over the t-5s. Plus everyone has t-5s Quote
dajogejr Posted August 8, 2010 Report Posted August 8, 2010 Sleeper...did you have to change jetting or setup to go from R2s from Toomeys? My guess is the R2s opened up anywhere from 750 to 1K RPM for you over the T5s. Quote
