Top 5 or 10 slip-ons?

fmx · July 26th, 2013, 11:35 AM

I realize this may be difficult to answer since it's relative to each person's opinion... However, is there a current list of top slip-on exhausts anywhere (2012 250R)?

Or...how about your own opinions? Thanks.

Most popular ones that I can think of off the top of my head are Two Brothers, Yoshimura, Leo Vince, Akrapovic, MGP Growler, HMF. Not organizing from 1 to 10 cause they're dependent on your preference since all they do is make sound, not power.
If you want sound, look around for video clips or sound clips. If you're looking for power and sound check out Area P and their full exhaust systems.
Oh and my opinion is that buying a slip on is a waste of money. Get a full system.

^^This.
In my opinion, the Two Brothers and the MGP are ridiculously too loud. I like yoshimura and HMF, I've never heard an akrapovic or Leo Vince, but I like them on bigger bikes.

I have a Yoshi full exhaust, and I like it. It's just the right amount of sound, and gives it just a little more power.
Like Jason said, it's worth it to just save for a good full system, if you can/want to swing it.

They generally lower the weight of your bike by a bit. ^wut he said

I have an HMF on mine and I love it. Sounds great and isn't overly loud. Has a nice growl and rumble to it.

I have an FMF slip-on. It sounds crisp and has the perfect combination of growl and scream.

My friend has a Two Brothers and it is unnecessarily loud. He actually has a silencer on it. It sounds way too deep and growly and it's annoying riding behind him lol

Thanks for the input everyone. I guess I'll hold off. I'm not willing to spend the extra $ on a full system, esp. since I plan to sell my bike before long. As far as I know, stock bikes are more likely to sell higher (unless you have an exhaust that is bangin, and shiny new).

I've seen dyno tests and the Leo Vince full system outperformed everyone.
