No, it's not discontinued. It's listed all over the place. RMATV, Motosport, CycleGear, Revzilla, even Amazon and more.

Yes, the E-series silencer appears to be discontinued. With that said, the best silencer for the E is the OEM silencer. It's durable, quiet, and easily repackable.

If you really want a Turbine Core for your E-model, it’s not terribly hard to modify an H model version to fit I would imagine. Some cutting and welding and BOOM!

I have an Answer SA Pro-2 for E-Series KDX available. Aluminum silencer with internal turbine core spark arrestor. Lines up and slips on perfectly with FMF pipe. Probably needs a cleanup/repack.

Answer S/A-Pro 2 would be awesome!

Post a FS ad with pics if you can. I would like to see one for an E model. I have a new one for KDX250. I have never used one, but it looks awesome. I have the first version on my 87.
Thank you for participating on kdxrider.net. :bravo:

I’m interested. The silencer that came on my e model has answer etched in it ironically but it’s riveted so I can’t repack it and a bit beat up. If you could share a few pics I’d appreciate it

I will try to fish it out and get a pic, but are you sure the Answer silencer is riveted on both ends? Usually it is only one. Also, you can drill the rivet out and replace with a sheet metal screw upon reassembly.

I will double check that tomorrow. Thanks for that tip with the sheet metal screw. It is definitely too beat up for my build and the look I’m going for.

Thank and I will double check. Thanks for the tip with the sheet metal screws. It is too beat up for the fresh look I am going for though.

Not sure that this is a restoration quality piece either, but it is a nice forest service approved arrestor that is exact fit for E-Series KDX and should clean up and repack nicely.

I recall it as being very quiet, especially for aftermarket.

How much money would you like for that. I think maybe I could have it cleaned and polished. Thanks

Thanks for the pics. I can see that looking pretty nice if I cleaned it real good and painted it black. I’ll consider it. How much would you like for it? Thank you
