Blowtie316 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I bought this banshee (my first) 2 weeks ago. It came with CT midrange pipes I believe. I can't seem to find much information on them searching here or on google. Are these CT midrange pipes? If so, does anyone have any experience with them? I don't like the silencers and was considering buying different pipes but if these are good pipes I might just keep them and mod the silencers to my liking. This will be for the typical dune, drag, trail bike, it is a 4 mil motor now and will get a FAST dune/play port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprinklerman Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I seem to remember that CT used Power Pros to make their pipes. Might look in that direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jriffe23 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 They look kind of like the LRD adjustables i had back in the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUILDER Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I have 3 sets of LRD pipes one adjustable set on 2 regular sets. Those look nothing like the LRD pipes I have 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Sprink is right, those are power pro's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blowtie316 Posted August 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 10-4, I'll look into power pros. I am certain they are not the LRD adjustable, by buddy has those. Anyone know about the power pros? worth trying to keep or should I start thinking about buying pipes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadarRacing Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Keep em for a playbike. They make good power until the cyls are drag ported then cpi or shearers are better. They look like powerpros to me too and I used to have a set on a 370 I liked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Those are bitchin' trail bike pipes. I've only seen a few pairs. One on stock stroke and another set on a F.A.S.T. 4 mil. Really crisp all arounder. Yours actually seem to be in pretty great shape for their age. Keep those! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blowtie316 Posted August 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Cool, Thanks for the feedback, I like the pipes but hate the silencers and the way the slide together. I'm going to start researching for a silencer swap of some sort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 If you're ok with a welder, shearer sells his silencers with a bolt on flange that you weld to the stinger tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blowtie316 Posted August 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) If you're ok with a welder, shearer sells his silencers with a bolt on flange that you weld to the stinger tube. Thanks for the info. Well welding is no problem, I build all sorts of stuff and have a mig and tig. Problem is I don't like the way the pipe slides into the stinger tube, it's sloppy and bulky. Also the end cap on the silencer is just ugly. I was thinking about trying some toomey silencers or something. My buddies have LRD and Toomey t5s. I'll pull those off an see how much it would take to make one of those work. I see used toomeys on ebay for reasonable money. i just figured if I didn't like the pipes, I would just get a different pipe/silencer combo.
