Fattys or a 2 into 1 pipe for woods riding?

[350Xhilaration]

I am new to the banshee scene and will be picking my 2000 banshee up this weekend. It is stock aside from the FMF pipes ( I think Fattys) and silencers and tires. It has extremely low hours on it and has never been rebuilt. It has spent most of its life under a cover.

 

The question is this, I do a lot of woods riding and some drags (play). Would the pipes it has do well for woods riding or should I start looking into a 2 into 1 pipe?

 

Thanks in advance.

I think the fatty's would work fine, they are an all around pipe. However you will just need to ride it and decide for yourself. If you find yourself wanting more low end then the FMF Gnarly''s would be your best bet. But Pipes are all about what YOU like, so just ride the thing and see how you like it.

Keep the fatties for awhile, I believe you'll like them.

From what I've been reading here over the last hour or so, I think i will keep them.

 

They were bought and installed in 2000 when it was new...would these be the "old school FMF" pipes I've seen people talking about? I'm not sure if they say anything but FMF on them. I havent seen the quad for a couple years. It's a brother in law of my brother that owns it.

if they say fatty on the belly of the pipe, they are the newer version. says fmf gold series and looks more circular.

If I were a betting man, I'd say these are what were installed...judging by the date of the write-up and when the guy bought the banshee. He had the dealer put the pipes on and jet it before he took delivery of it. So my guess is the pipes were the newest FMF pipes made at the time. I'll find out this weekend.

 

write up on "Fattys"

The pipes are FMF Gnarlys with Turbine Core II spark arrestors.

 

Came with a matching helmet, MSR boots, Scott Goggles, cover, two gas cans, 7 quarts of semi synthetic yamalube, 1 qt of golden spectro oil, a spray can of Chain Wax, and 4 sets of tie downs.

 

Here are some pics.

 

 

 

 

 

It hasnt been washed in a while and the pipes have some rust on them. I havent cleaned it yet. It's not as pristine as I thought it would be, but well worth 2 grand.

I don't know they look like fattys to me, they are good almost like a t6but take a little longer to get to you top speed

[350Xhilaration]

They say "gnarlys" right on them, so I'm pretty sure that's what they are.

Looks really good for 2 grand, thats for sure!! But i think the previous owner did some landscaping with the grab bar. Have fun with it

[Dead Op]
