the stepped header is the best way to get velocity of gas up and out and to lower the anti reversion negative waves from getting back up the pipe

The guys at racing motorcycles.com know what they are doing. You could have the pipe jet hot coated. But it is a full race pipe from what I have been told.

yeah the pipe works but....They are mainly made for big cc's and you definatley need to tune that baby in with some outside help.
Might work ok for the twelve but I would be doubtful on the 9's.

the old addage....how much power can I get...how much money ya got

They don't call it a race pipe for nothing.
The way it looks to me is, you'd loose all your bottom end and pick up a lot more top.
So as far as street goes, it wouldn't.

I know that Richie is very busy at present, so probably hasn't had time to call people back. Last time I spoke to him he intimated that the pipe would be around the $1500 mark. Don't think about putting one on a road bike though, as it just won't work. It is designed specifically for the factory race engines that are putting out mega BHP with the 1350 engines.
The header bores are just too big for street bike use, plus it will be LOUD!
We tried a 2" bore equal length header system on our race XB9 and it resulted in less power, not more, even with a PCIII hooked up and setup on a dyno. Sometimes less actually is more apparently.........

So why does a Force pipe work on a 9 and this wouldn't? I have a 12 that I would like to try this or a Force on.Can't hardly think this could be any LOUDER than the Force I heard up to Wahwahloo with Dave "twistin" the wick! :)
