So I'm thinking about a new exhaust, mostly just for sound and looks but i wouldn't mind a bit more performance. Anyways im not too excited about any of the exhausts on eBay n Amazon, but I've found some amazing deals on aliexpress. I feel kinda hesitant about ordering from there even though some of the sellers have good ratings, has anyone on here used aliexpress? If its not sketchy to order I wana get this maybe m.aliexpress.com/item/32373534025.htmlIt looks decent, and the header pipe isn't the kind that has the choke point it looks like. What do you guys think about this exhaust, has anyone ever tried them? |

I have ordered quite a few things from Aliexpress in the last two years. This is how it works. Aliexpress is a company that the sellers deal with. When you purchase a item you are paying Aliexpress not the vendor. The vendor does not get money until you receive your items and you confirm that you are satisfied with the items. If you are not satisfied you can open a dispute. I have had a couple of issues, but they were quickly handled to my satisfaction. Sometimes shipping can take a long time so watch the ship times and I usually try to order from vendors that have some history. It is similar to ebay in a lot of ways. I find the vendors usually quite friendly. Good luck.

That exhaust is super cheap !! It actually looks pretty good from the pics. I imagine it comes from overseas and from a wholesale dealer.

I think im gona spring for it. Only 66 bucks! the silencer is removable too so itll be loud like I like it haha. I may have to bend it a little and use some sheet metal to rig up the mount though because it seems like its designed for the single shock models and mine has two shocks and the right side swingarm. It does t seem like that would be all too difficult though. Im not sure if I wana get blue to match my bike or just get the silver...I think the silver one looks pretty clean

Ordered it! once I get it and install it ill let you all know how I like it. It certainly looks nicer than the "performance" exhausts you see on ebay for like 80 to 100 bucks. Those just look kinda cheap. Hopefully this one is ok, the price is hard to beat!

Please check back in when you receive the exhaust. I have ordered a number of things from AliExpress and some have arrived within 10 days and others taken close to a month. I have been happy with everything I have bought off of there.

Been tracking it. Like 3 days after I ordered it the package already went from China, to Japan, and now Alaska. Estimated to arrive on the 10th. I'll update everyone once it arrives, then after I manage to install it. Hopefully my right swingarm and shock don't make it too hard, the picture of it they showed installed were on a single shock model so I may have to be creative mounting it. But once its on I'll try and get a video up

Well... My exhaust has started to rattle the mounting bolts loose to the point of making a squeaking noise that pisses me off. So I took the chance and ordered one also. I will report back with a review once it arrives and is installed. I'll post it here and also on dmartin95 new scooter forum. www.dansgaragetalk.com |

Got the exhaust! Like a week after ordering it came fast. Its made for the single shock bikes but I barely got it to clear my right shock. Only problem is the mount gets in the way of opening my oil dipstick because it sits further out due to my swingarm..so I'm Gina grind it down a bit so it clears no biggie. Anyways its nice and loud, has a good deep growl it sounds soooo much better than stock. Only weird thing is I asked if the silencer is removable and they said ya...but I got one with what looks like a screw in silencer..but there's already one inside welded on which looks the exact same as the extr one...its loud as heck tho and you can see straight through there's like no restriction. I'll post some pics tomorrow maybe. Overall I'm satisfied, pretty easy to install, just had to bend the ring mount thing a bit, and it sounds aaaawesome and it looks good too. overall its definitely worth 60 bucks

Oh ya and the header pipe is non restrictive, just one solid diameter all thru unlike the stock one which gets smaller by the engine side

That's good to hear! I ordered mine on the 8th, but it still hasn't been shipped.
How does the steel feel? Cheap or good?

I Duno what to compare it to but it doesn't feel cheap. I'd say its pretty good quality.
