The Yamaha Road Star Warrior Forum

Just FYI - I got this in my email from BMS:
SPORT NASTY SLIP-ON PIPE - Yamaha Warrior
RETAIL $589.95
PRICE SLASHED TO $253.68

still way too much for my tastes, but then I dont really like slip ons

yeah me too, not my style.

IMHO, that thing doesn't look any better than stock[V]

I happen to like it, not to mention I bought one. I like more of the sportbike canister look, everything else reminds me of something on a Harley, not to mention way to loud. JMO

Its always good to let people know of a good deal even if it may not be your style of product .

Thanks for posting that. I was thinking of trying one.I have Big Shots and they scrape. Making right handers a bit more exiting than lefts.
Thats a great discount...my 45th is tomorrow so happy bday to me.

Having never seen one, Ijust went to their site. They are a bit better than the stocker but not my taste either. They are listing them on clearance for 399.00.

I have seen it in person, It is a nice looking pipe and it has a very nice sound to it also!!

I picked one up for cheap $ off of eBay about a month or so ago. I got it as a stop-gap until my Roadhouse slip-on comes in. I didn't think I'd like it that much, but for the money it had to be an improvement over stock.

It's about 1/3 the size of the water heater and weighs even less than that. I haven't dyno'd, but there is a noticable improvment in response/acceleration. The sound is pretty nice... throaty, kinda reminds me of a 'vette with glass packs. Having a Midnight, I'm not too fond of the color, but that can be fixed.

I still have the RH on order, but I've come to like the Baron. When the RH finally comes in I'll have a decision to make... []

I'm lifted about as high as it will go and even with the R1 forks that dive less , it still grinds on the pipe like a skate boarder on a hand rail.At least thats what it feels like.

I had that slip-on on my bike for awhile(2004), was testing it for Baron when they were doing r&d. It actually made about 7hp when they put my bike on the dyno, I just didn't care for the looks but it performed well and sounds nice and throaty.
