    hey whats the options and best pipe protection?

    ive got a 2009 WR 250 with a new Procircuit platnium 2 chamber / silencer and having trouble ordering a pirie performance carbon guard also know as P3 (not answering emails)

    the hyde version doesn't work with the Procircuit platnium 2 chamber

    anyone got a P3 for sale?
    any other options?

    P3 is the way to go. I just got one and it is heavy duty not just a thin piece of carbon fiber.

    Give Whipps Alloy a call Anth, they are the the sturdiest guard i've used, baulky but super strong...problem is they may not be in the husky market so it may be a made to order.
    Also B&B Offroad up Ballarat way use to make stainless steel pipe cages but it's probably a made to order now.

    I had a carbon guard..one smack on a rock sent that to the bin...l'm looking at making my own guard using fibreglass, sheetmetal and then a layer of carbon fibre ( I get bored easy lol) when the new expansion chamber comes in.

    Thankyou for your enquiry.

    Hall's sending to OZ Anth is hassle free...ordered a rebuild kit for the marzocchi's and new fork caps...hate to say but 80% cheaper than local!!

    I'm surprised at Whipps but l guess they cater for the popular market - l wouldn't be surprised if the KTM250 fits the WR250.

    I have trouble spending the price of a pipe on a guard so I bought one of those $30 aluminum armadillos and the first two minutes of the first ride after putting it on I hit a rock hidden in leaves on a 3rd gear downhill and crashed hard in a bed of rocks. Broken rocks were ground in the pipe guard and major scratches in my body armor but nothing on the bike or me was hurt. $30 well spent

    Wasted my money on a Hyde and waited 3 weeks for delivery, got it home, put it on and it aint even close!

    Why didnt I do my research on here first!!!

    Im thinking of going out there and making it fit with 10m of tie wire!

    I have had P3 on both my KX250 and WR150 and they both fit like a glove. I crash tested the one on the KX250 a few times on rocks and it has held up great with no damage to the pipe.
