Plan on buying a new full exhaust system, only needing a single exhaust. Lined up to a race the other day and the guy had a system on his 450, the thing was loud. Ear piercing loud. I didnt get a chance to talk to him about how it performed. Anyone familiar with the Sparks systems? Any information would be greatly apreciated.

Curtis Sparks makes great exhausts.  There big core system preforms right with the Dual exhaust systems.  Talk to Racers Edge about them  :thumbs:

You dont care about noise?
Ice racing last year with no DB limits they were some amazingly loud 450 exhausts there, I can't imagine riding a quad thats as loud as a Harley  ::)

Whether racing or trail riding I find a benefit in being able to hear others around me without  looking back  :lol:

that and ron woods are about as best as you can get without going to duals, or so ive heard, i dont have experience with either one, heck i dont even have a 700 lol

I just put on the Curtis Sparks regualr core full exhaust on mine. It is pretty damn loud, and gives great low and midrange power compared to a stock set up. Before the Sparks exaust I had Barker Duals, but decided to get rid of them due to the added weight vs performance they were giving me. Curtis also sells a big core which is louder then the normal core due to the larger piping diameter. The big core is really only helpful if you are doing internal engine mods. If you arent, you are not going to see any real added gains, you might even see some missing low and mid power though. If you are considering just doing a PC and air filter and exhaust i would recommend the standard core unit, and pay an extra $50 to get it ceramic coated so it looks nice year after year :thumbs:

Thanks a million man, that's what I needed to hear! Got any pictures of it on the quad? Mine is white too, so I will get a good idea what it will look like, thanks.

Mines not white, but it gives you an idea. Big Core.

Man I am in love with that color scheme. Did you have fun paying 200 bucks for those decals? Lol. Where did you buy the replacement plastics from? The black ones.

The plastics are 07 SE plastics. My quad is actually an 08SE, used to be red/white. Bought the 07 plastics then sold my 08 plastics, then just peeled the stickers I did not want on that where from the factory.

The person I bought them from had already sold them and replaced them with the black carbons from majer. So it is just what the set came as.
