| Now that I've got my BP back I'd like to put an exhaust on. I've seen some great stuff on this site, but I'd like to know what companies make a pipe to fit on my bike. The only one I know of is M4.

The carbon can company and BSM also do a pipe for thismodel. I dare say there are others as well.

*I dare say* there are limited choices.
M4, which is ugly. Then the European companies which are expensive. Go back and read the exhaust threads and you'll see.. the best option is to make your own, the second best is to buy the parts you like and have a competent fabricator modify them to fit your bike.
Or buy the M4 and live with the odd looking muffler placement.

| I think that answers my question. I've seen the homemade one's... nice stuff, but I was looking for one that was made to fit directly on the bike right out of the box. Apparently even the one's that are meant to don't! Thank's for the help.

BSM offers two choices: Vampire (Loud) and Future (Not so loud, and
my choice). The Future sounds like a four cycle exhaust should; deep-
er tone and similar to other four stroke dirt bikes.
Ordered mine from: Twisting Throttle Cycles
11464 C.R. Koon Highway
Prosperity, SC. 29127
803-364-Bike
Shop is MZ dealership. Owners are Brian and Faith Wilson (Nice People
I met during MZ open house at Bike Week).

Carbon Can one on mine-bolts straight on. Finish is still excellent after two winters.
It has melted the number plate, but that's my fault!

I donīt know if you can get the following exhausts in the USA....
G.P.R
Figaroli
Holeshot
BSM
Goetz
Holeshot isnīt very well, with the new ones you will loose some power.
Figaroli is good, but in my opinion too large....no losses of power
G.P.R is very good, but expensive. no losses of power and he looks great at the baghi!
The Goetz exhaust is like the G.P.R., only a little bit larger. If you mount it, you should have some problems, the qualitiy isnīt very good but acceptable and heīs CHEAP!!!!
The BSM is okay, looks nice at the baghi and works well...but GPR looks nicer

I donīt like the Akrapovic.....the exhaust is too big....ugly and f*ckinī expensive....
I have heard nothing good about ABP and Baghituning..or Kawasaki KLX tuning. They only can handle a pumpkin, nothing else. A member of the german Baghi forum had tuned his bike there....he was very disappointed about the effect and the lost money. In germany, Tunebike is very good!

that Akrapovic - i think it was on tunebike.de i saw the picture - looks terrible.
the others... wherever you go, there are people making crap exhausts. and lots of hype /bullsht.
M4 ... stuff them - they're too slack to make a connector that fits the Baghira, they just want to sell what they made for the other model. it's not that much work.
if you're in the UK or Europe, you have the best choice.
if you're in the USA, and you don't want to pay for shipping from Germany/Netherlands/UK/Italy, get the M4, or make a custom exhaust (get a suitable muffler and get someone to make the collector and connector pipe - or use the stock collector.
if you're not in Europe or the USA and you don't want to pay $$$$ (like 150 euros to ship the GPR), make one.
there is nothing special about any of the aftermarket exhausts for the Baghira. it's just the convenience of getting a connector pipe and collector that's been made for it. any muffler for a big single (or a Ducati or something) will be ok; you just have to find someone suitable to make the rest.
Akrapovic ...[see the current thread on advrider re Akrapovic on KTM 640]... "you get what you pay for" ... check out Akrapovic website re why they are better than most.
