I've been thinking of getting a HMF full exhaust. Does any body have any experience with one of these. I wanted to get duals, but my wife is buying a hay burner this weekend and she also need tack. So I need to cheapen up on the big three :(
i ran a HMF the first 2 years i owned my raptor, and i loved it. great power and great sound. i would recommend it to anyone. :thumbs:
Maybe you could find a used set of duals cheap!! :thumbs:
I ran mine for almost 6 months... (then the duals bug bit me)
I don't have a dyno sheet but I can tell you the power difference w/ the PCIII and an intake was HUGE!!!!!!
And... Hayburner... WTF! My mom has one w/ my aunts about 25......... stupid things. but.. gotta keep the lady happy too.

I've been looking just a little out of the price range right now. I made an agreement with the wife when she finished college and got a job that she could get a horse now she has both, so I have to bite the bit and buy a :mad:horse. Its what makes her happy so it's all good I guess.
How loud are they? I've been looking at the Bill Ballance
LOUD!

+1 it's crazy loud. It's not an annoying loud, it's got a real low tone, but when you stab the throttle, it just barks.

+1 Warren! They make good power, you have color choice, and they sound really good. If too loud, get a power core. $20. :thumbs: HMF is in my "can't afford duals" contingency plan as well :lol: Oh, and I agree, they are loud, but it is a good loud!
Plan C: The phoenix Spark arrestor. Just replaces stock, and goes from 5/8" to 1 3/4".
$40. :thumbs:
Definitely go with a bill ballance. Best quality HMF available. But what if I could get you a set of duals for $600 :jaw: Would you be interested?
They totally make that "BRAAP" sound when you nail the throttle.

you and that "BRAAP" sound. :rofl: :rofl:
but yeah man they are loud. just make sure you keep the packing good in them. because if you ride for 2 years on the original packing it starts to sound like shit. and packing is dirt cheap so don't worry about that. lol i think it's like $20 from HMF.

:grin_nod: Did you change yourself? I never did, don't know how. do you have to drill rivets?
i drilled my rivets and tapped the holes and put bolts w/ washers. on ebay you can get full hmf w/ intake and dobeck for $650 or something like that. i got a full kit w/ dobeck for $550. They sound great and make good power. i havent ridden one with duals but i have raced some with duals and the better rider will win, not that big of power difference.
