Man, the 250 is a gem, isn't it?? That mpg is great and I really felt that the tune was overall better compared to the '09 my wife had back in the day (more comfortable too!)

Yesterday I took my '05 for a rip around the block. It's not perfect yet, I think I still have a little bit of crud to blow out of the carbs but it's getting there bit by bit.
Here's my problem: this thing is loud. I don't like loud, and it runs against my goal for this bike which is to fly under the radar. It has a full Yoshi system that I posted for trade in the Marketplace section, anyone have a set of stock pipes they care to trade for these?
