    Hello all, I'm new to this site thus this may have already been said. I wanted to let WR 300 owners know that FMF makes a beautiful Gnarly pipe and Q Stealth silencer for this model. I installed this exact combination on my ride today and then went for a whip down the back alley at my place.

    I've read many conflicting reviews about this combination on varies 300's.

    My only modifications are a rekluse clutch and the PWK airstriker carb.

    Review:

    -the pipe does not fit with every type of skidplate, so be aware of this.
    -you will have to slightly adjust your mounting hardware to match up the mounting holes; it's easy
    because their designd to move.
    -silencer bolts up very well to existing mounting holes.
    -the pipe does hang lower than the original, so expect some dents on pipe and lower mounting
    bracket.
    -make sure your pipe comes with some rubber o-rings or use your existing o-rings with some high
    temp sealant.
    -use your existing springs, my pipe did not come with new springs.
    -use high temp sealant for the joining of the silencer and pipe.

    Sound:

    It has a slightly tingy sound from the pipe which gives the 2 smoke a very nice typical sound. The silencer definately muffles the sound and is quieter but with a bit of a chunky sound. Overall the sound is very nice.

    Ride Report:

    Wowwwwwww !!!

    It pulls harder everywhere, the bottom to mid definately have a bigger hit now. There is no loss up top, it still has lots of overrev.

    I was skeptical about wasting money on a new exhaust, especially when I didn't need one.

    This combo works better than expected.
    Steve-oh and lankydoug like this.

    Depends if you get the Pro Circuit Platinum or Platinum 2. The Platinum 2 is the torque pipe similar to the Gnarly. My WR 250 came with a Gnarly already installed. It has great low to midgrange power, but does not rev out much past the midrange.
