TimJ Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 I am at the stage in my engine rebuild that I need to choose a pipe. My mods are: bored .10 over, stock stroke crank thats is weilded, aggressive dune port, NOSS cool head, stock carbs, v-force 3 reeds. Which is the best for my application Shearer, CPI, or T5's (Toomeys T5s are on backorder for another 2 weeks per Toomey). I would just like to get some input guidence on which way to go. F.A.S.T. racing is doing all the machine work. Quote
Boston Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 cpi or shearer. personally ive never ran shearer's but ive heard lots of good things about them so i think im gonna try them the next time a buy pipes. Quote
_Ray_ Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 CPI's are my favorite so far. I'm ordering some once they come in from back order Quote
camatv Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 you need to cinsider your riding style. what does jeff say ( i'm betting on cpi's?) Quote
TimJ Posted April 1, 2011 Author Report Posted April 1, 2011 have not talked to Jeff yet about them he is going to call me when he is done with the machine work. I know they sell CPI and Shearer. I ride open areas, some hill climbing, and some flat track, Maybe a drag race here and there. I guess you can say I am an all kind of rider.I like it all. I wanted to see what everybody else thought of the pipes. I have not heard much about shearer or cpi. Most people around here run Toomey or FMF that I have seen so far. you need to cinsider your riding style. what does jeff say ( i'm betting on cpi's?) Quote
06specialedition Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 I have some similar mods to yous and my CPI's kick ass. You can't go wrong IMO. Quote
fastbanshee8 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Posted April 1, 2011 I've got CPI's, and love them. Even though they are a "drag pipe", they hit sooner than the Fatty's I had, plus they rev out more. The CPI's would be a good pipe, for you. Quote
05Twin350 Posted April 8, 2011 Report Posted April 8, 2011 I love my T-5's and I ride trails, drag here and there, and some track as well. Quote
SuperMex Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 if your leaning towards CPIs you should look into R-2s as well there a great pipe and different than the usual CPI or Shearers you see everywhere Quote
CFH87 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 I would go shearer thats just the way i'm going kevin said they make the best power between cpi and shearer. But hes also porting my cyls for the pipes so that always helps. Quote
