  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

I currently have a FMF gnarly pipe with the stock silencer on my bike and i'm happy with the performance but it's bent up to the point where none of the mounts come close to lining up so I'm going to buy a new one.

On FMF's site they show part number 025148 for the 2009, however the picture of that pipe doesn't look like mine, the one I have looks like part number 025010 which they show as fitting 2006 and earlier. Also my stock pipe looks more like the second pic also.

Anyone know what the deal is here? Is the pic they show for the 025148 pipe incorrect or should I just order the 025010?

My 09 WR250 Gnarly pipe looks like the 025010 in the top pic where it hooks to the silencer but the mounting tab on the fat end looks like the bottom pic (025148). Where it goes in to the cyl head looks like the top pic.

For what it's worth I got mine from my local honda dealer and the part # was 1820-1284
 
Pulled the pipe off to look for a part # but no dice.

Like i said i'm happy with the gnarly but the smokin deals on the husky pc pipe are very tempting. i hear it's more of a mid-top pipe compared to the gnarly.

Has anyone run them both? How did they compare?

thanks
 
So my buddy has an '09 with a gnarly also. I pulled both pipes to compare and they are different.

His is in the foreground here

His pipe fits perfect on my bike (duh) so I think my pipe is the for the older bikes. You can see the mouting tabs are in different places which is why besides being very bent mine never fit well.

I was going to order a new gnarly but ended up getting the complete husky pro circuit system. For $208 shipped it was too hard to pass up!

At a glance it looks pretty similar to the gnarly. I'll post up pics later. I plan to run them back to back and if I loose too much bottom with the pc i'll probably sell it and get another gnarly.
 
Here is a pic of the pc pipe next to the gnarly. It fitted up easy and doesn't seem to be any louder than the gnarly with the stock silencer. Haven't had a chance to ride it yet :(

A couple of updates: I found the part no's on the fmfs - they are stamped on the tabs. It is as I suspected, my pipe is the one for the older 250s.

I also got a ride in with the PC. Definitely seemed softer on the bottom but had good mid range. Didn't really get to rev it out much. I was going to switch to the gnarly but that turned out to be a pipe dream (hardy har) because the bike was too muddy.

After some further "customization" with a big iron bar I've got the gnarly back on and I will run it in the race this weekend.
