trickedcarbine Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 I played with a set of them briefly. The guy who did a 4mm that I beat up all winter is more in the sled world so he is in with the folks at SLP. They come on like what an FMF would and just freight train right up to 9,000 RPM. But the sign off is pretty abrupt. They reminded me of rockets but everything happens about 250-500 RPM sooner. If you are in trails, twisties, and idiot holes, MX, these are for you. But if you wanna be wide open down logging/fire roads, dunes, open gravel pits you honestly might not be to stoked because of the way they sign off. Quote
croyboy Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 Thank you!! I ride tight trails and dunes. So the low end is important, but want good top end when we hit dirt roads and the dunes. With the cylinder pitting issue I didn't have time to wait for a builder to get new cylinders and porting. Put it together as cast with domes from Jeff and picked up a set of used CPI for now. Next fall plan to look into further options when riding season is over. Quote
locogato11283 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Posted March 24, 2015 I agree with tricked... For trails and tight stuff the SLP look to be great pipes. For a dune pipe I would run Snipers. Quote
87sheerips Posted March 27, 2015 Report Posted March 27, 2015 Good looking pipes! Now onto some reviews! Waiting for it to warm up again! In the 20's today. Prob ride it for a bit Sunday. Quote
croyboy Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 Perfect, we are hitting the trails tomorrow. Still get hot trail riding when its 30° 1 Quote
croyboy Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 We will be at the trail head on canoe camp rd in Leota 11am. My 421 serval with CPI, other stock stroke stock jug a&s motor with old unstamped cpi. Good test for yours Quote
RagunCajun Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 I just can't get past the look of the silencers........just my opinion but it ruins the look of them. If they they perform the best for a certain persons needs/engine combo, then they would just get the expansion chambers and stingers then get some different silencers welded on. Quote
lil Doobie420 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 Rust on chain would not ride.... Quote
Hummer84 Posted March 28, 2015 Report Posted March 28, 2015 If they they perform the best for a certain persons needs/engine combo, then they would just get the expansion chambers and stingers then get some different silencers welded on. That's just way to much trouble. Give them honest feedback and maybe they could come up with SLP II's with a cleaner design. Why would I buy new pipes then have to spend money to mod them? To each his own. It's my personal opinion, not starting a pissing match. Quote
RagunCajun Posted March 29, 2015 Report Posted March 29, 2015 (edited) Not sure why you would, but if that's what i wanted, i would do just that. With the price some people spend on a bike build, a little extra is just a drop in the bucket. That's why. Carry on. Edited March 29, 2015 by RagunCajun Quote
camatv Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 changing the silencer will change the way they perform. Quote
87sheerips Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 SLP....They RIP. I don't notice it falling out on top at all, only restricted by gearing and these small MX tires. Can't wait to hit the sand. They are ready to ship. $572 to your door.https://vimeo.com/123680541https://vimeo.com/123680957https://vimeo.com/123681053https://vimeo.com/123681127 Quote
trickedcarbine Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Those sound a bit throatier then the ones I messed with. Any idea what they're silencers are packed with now JD? Quote
