The fatty's are more of a mid to topend pipe where the gnarlies are better for low end to mid power..For your type of riding. Go w/ the gnarlies, hands down...If you can afford them, get the PTR mids, they have more bottom end w/ the same top end as the fatties.

The Faster Cracker Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 i am riding wiht the gnalrys and i love them. i do alot MX style riding since there arent any places to drag around here. you will like them. and just because they are a low to mid pipe dont mean that you cant drag race with them. i have been noticing from people that since a pipe is meant for low endpower that they think they cant drag with them. not true. you can do whatever you want with them it just makes a diffrence where your power comes in is all. im still out running craptors and such wiht my gnarlys and i freagin love it. got any more questions just shoot me a message Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was beating 370R's, 450R, other shees even w/ porting...The low-mid pipes emphasize the power at lower rpms. You'll just have to learn to short shift and use the torque instead of revving the hell out of it to get power. Where you lose on one end, you'll gain on the other...you can't beat low end pipes out of the hole. :thumbsup: Ps: how did the a-arms fare on that crash??

nomad Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) I have no complaints with the gnarlys. The power comes on early and pulls strong. And like mentioned above, revving them won't get you anywhere any faster. Edited February 7, 2007 by nomad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Faster Cracker Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 The only thing that happened in that crash was the front tire blew the bead off the rim and my brand freagin new trail tech lights on the handlebars got all busted to shit. I jsut put them on about an hour before that wreck. I also had a pretty nasty rasberry on my leg but thats all. It ended rolling like 4 times. I checked every thing over and gave it one kick and it fired right up. Got to love those blasters. lol. Ill see if i cant find the video of that crash and post it. LOL whats funny about the whole thing is right before i wrecked i said " Ok one more time, yall watch this." famous last words i got away with.
