keeks707 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 well my brother is getting his motor built and was wondering if CPI's in-frame would be good for his build. he gonna get cub build with 35mm carbs with a stock stroke...and he would also like to kno which setup should he go with, the "big bore" or the regular ones...let me kno what u think...thank you.

jbooker82 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 cpi's would work good. If he wants a little more top end than the cpi's will offer then Shearer's would be the better choice. CPI's come on a little sooner, than the Shearer's but the Shearer's have more top end.

dajogejr Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 (edited) When I think of an inframe pipe, I think of the occasional drag racing duner. For a duner bike...CPI would be my personal choice... If he got serious into drag racing, out of frame pipes are the way to go....and Shearer get the nod from me for Cubs. NOW... That's not to say CPI, GRR, RDZ, Jaws or other out of frame pipes won't work, they will and can work very well. I've ran CPI and Shearer on mine...I like how mine runs on Shearer... And this is NO way to judge a pipe, but I do like the look of shearer better than the CPI pipes.

locogato11283 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 id never run cpi.. i dont give a shit how good they could run on a certain motor, theyre ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 i have the big bore stock stroke cub.. i am running 33 pwks, and inframe cpi's.. it definately runs great.. i trail ride it often(nothing real technical).. but i would definately buy the big bore cub.. why spend all that money and not get the big bore? in my opinion thats a no brainer.. i would like to trade up to a set of shearers and give them a try.. but since the cpi's come on a little sooner they suite me best.. good luck.. he will love that cub.

locogato11283 Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 You gonna tell me those Rockets look/perform better?? LOL... youre god damn right.. i had a 4mm stock cylinder motor that was drag ported by rick cairo. rockets made 77hp and 44 lbs of torque.. cpi made 74 hp and 41 lbs of torque. that sold me right there.. and yes, i think the rockets are better looking than cpi. i think cpi are prolly one of the ugliest pipes out there.

dajogejr Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 LOL... Just goes to proove what I put in another post, user asking about GRR pipes. Pipes are one piece of a puzzle for a matched set to perform... I think CPI are ugly too, but...they work very well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 I`m thinking of getting a new set seeing i have some scratches on mine. i love the look of the cpi and for what i do i couldnt ask for a better pipe. i just dont like the burns on my leg. this is only my 4th set of pipes so i cant say much but i think they look dam good.

Shearer, IMO...have the nicest design as far as drag pipes go for an inframe pipe. They are like T5's on steroids, you can get to your plugs and fuel valve easy, they bend over the carbs and air filters so they clear the pods...but they are a top end screaming pipe. Tyler...here's that post. There was no conclusion, a guy asked about GRR pipes he got on ebay....any good, etc? http://www.bansheehq.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=100911 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donkeypuncher Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 well you really cant go wrong with either the shearer or cpi pipes, but i have also heard good things about the paul turners. also, it all depends on when you want the power to kick in!! good luck decidin. ; ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
