Rev Pipe and PowerCore II Exhaust Noise?
Rev Pipe and PowerCore II Exhaust Noise?
How loud is the FMF Rev Pipe with a Powercore II silencer? This is what is on the KDX200 I'm thinking of buying. Can you give me either a db estimate or a comparision to the stock pipe. I can always throw on the stock silencer if it's too loud. And does the Powercore II have a spark arrestor? Thanks.

It's not too bad.I am running the torque and a pcII, and it's not much louder than the stock silencer. I'm assuming that the rev isn't really that much different than the torque in noise level, but I am not 100% on that. Gave it a different tone, more of a 250 sound. It's still quiter than 90% of the bikes out there. The powercore II does not have a spark arrestor. It is an open design with no screen. Hope I shed some light for you.

There is a Turbinecore II, and it does include a spark arrester.
A woods bike without a spark arrester? The owner is stupid. Keep out of MY woods!!
My rev pipe/ TCII has sound checked from 88-92 db. Don't think that has anything to do with the bike, but the testing equipment (and the testers themselves. They don't all do it the same way. Supposed to, but they don't).
It's certainly louder than the OEM stuff. That double-walled stock pipe quiets things down pretty good.
