RE: Drag Race - KLX250 vs Honda XR500
Wow, this thread has really morphed into something completely different than it started.
IowaGuy- I'm sure the Big Gun makes great horsepower, but that doesnt mean other systems don't. I'm 100% happy with my 2 brothers and power was not my only factor in choosing it. The fit and finish are great, it sounds awesome, seems to make the power gains I expected and is the best looking exhaustout therein my opinion.Regardless of any bantering back and forth in this thread, your opinion is appreciated.
pooliod - I agree that the 2brothers feels like the reported 2.4 hp increase. It was money well spent for me.
ZX1100f1 - I'm sure all the reputable brands have decent systems. I chose 2 bros for the look, reported gains, fitment that cleared the rear pegs and hearing sound clips. I cant see one system absolutely blowing away the other in power so I dont think there is a bad choice to be made.
Regardless of exhaust or any other factors - if all the pieces come together well and make the KLX a blast to ride then who cares what brand etc was used to get it there.

Thanks but I was just being a little facetious.
But since we're on the subject; I am getting ready to purchase a new pick-up truck and I'm trying to decide between the Ford and the Chevy, which one should I buy?

I have a dodge 2500. never had problems with it (besides me spinning the front and rear uni joints to pieces). I would go with a ford next, change of scenery. Wait neither of those are a KLX or a Honda [
