Bro don’t rev the tpi bikes when they’re cold, that’s why it’s smoking and spluttering and can often foul a plug. Let it idle all the way up to operating temp
You could have just replaced the muffler and got the same sound. I replaced my stocker, had a 2.1 already, and it all sounded the exact same. Performance was negligible.
The only thing that sounds a little different is a shorty pipe, I don’t understand how anyone can say a new pipe sounds any different lol. Every video I’ve listened to of a stock pipe vs X pipe sounds the exact same unless they put on a shorty silencer, then there’s a slight change
I bought fmf for my yzf 426 in 2000 didn’t fit ,bike was slower put one on my 2019 ktm 300 xc junk didn’t fit right , there junk again everyone raves about them the craftsmenship sucks im a welder i welded like that i would get fired but the point is they fit like dog turd overpriced junk I wasted almost a grand on a junk pipe and silencer I put the stock back on goes way better fits so much better
