Hi guys, Ive got a Derbi GP1 (Same engine as the piaggio Gilera runner) and im looking to fit a sports exhaust. Everything is standard except for the fact its been derestricted and upjetted to suit. Im not looking to fit a 70cc kit or anything because ill only have this bike for another 7 or so months and cant justify the extra expense. I have three criteria for a new exhaust: 1) Must be quiet with a re-packable end can (Police around here hunt for mopeds with loud exhausts) 2) Must have good acceleration, I know some of this is down to roller wait and clutch springs but I need good acceleration in the Low - Mid rev ranges as there are a lot of hills around where I live 3) Must be less then around £150, I can go a bit over and I can certainly go lower! So ive found a few exhausts that meet my criteria, and Id like your opinions on these pipes and some suggestions of others you think would be suitable. The exhausts im looking at are: 1) The Giannelli Extra. http://www.donotlink-pedstop.co.uk/...exhaust_for_Piaggio_Zip_Gilera_Runner-27.aspx 2) The Polini Scooter team exhaust http://www.myscooterparts.co.uk/aut...---fits-gp1-50-open-model-only-/vp000281/274/ 3) The Laser X Pro http://www.donotlink-pedstop.co.uk/...haust_for_Gilera_Runner_DNA_NRG_etc-1623.aspx 4) The Yasuni Z http://www.sip-scootershop.com/EN/P...Scooter+Z+YASUNI+Piaggio+ACLC+with+epass.aspx I would also like to know if these exhausts come with restrictors in them and, if so, how hard they are to remove. Thanks for your help guys!
Does it come restricted? If so how do I derestrict it? I heard it has a cone in the expansion chamber which I assume is difficult to remove?
ye most exaust have restrictors there not hard to remove just a cone on the manifold just cut it off with a dremal
The Yasuni Z is the best by miles in terms of build quality and power on 70cc kits but on a stock bike the gains will be pretty much the same when you fit any sport exhaust. All e-marked road legal aftermarket exhausts are restricted otherwise they wouldn't get an e-mark. Most of them it's a welded in the downpipe and you have to use a dremel or something similar to grind out the welds. The Yasuni Z also has one in the end can. They are designed so they are easy to remove. No sports exhaust is anywhere near as quite as a stock exhaust. They are all pretty loud.
