I went from pt to aaen and you need to call them and order one. I only sold the pt cause it was worth something otherwise I would of scraped it. Make sure to have  a sparky built in so you can go to the dunes and not worry.  There are other pipes but they cost like hell and this one is  made across the pond. (lake michigan) All bullshit aside its a great pipe. Some people said it didn't fit so well, it fits as good as any aftermarket pipe.  Welcome to the site I live just outside ann arbor.

J's pipe went to my buddy and it made his bike a strong runner for a stock bike.

For an inexpensive pipe a PT is a great pipe, and I'm talking $175 and under on the top end.  IMHO if you're going to spend any more than that I'd be giving a serious look to some of the used Aaens or the DrQ V-1's being in the 400-550 range.

Anything over $600 it's ether the DrQ V-2 or the JH

AAEN. The PTR is a good pipe but it's old tech. It was designed 20 years ago. The AAEN new is a modified version of the Q v1. You will be happy with the AAEN. Get some V2's and be real happy. The old AAEN mx is basiclly a bills pipe/fmf

I have a PTR on one of mine, really happy with it. Not sure if anyone could use more in a trail then that. I'd let the one that fits your $$ flow. I don't see how you would be unhappy with any pick.

Most got the AAEN v1 copy, I don't know of anyone with the mx pipe. As for V2 reeds it depends on year. 87 big reed jerry hall and tudors performance make a billet v2 cage, 88+ small reed keep watching on ebay and here. I was also told Moto Tassinari still has some available in the warehouse. Until you can get some V2's just get a set off Carbon Tech HT reeds in the stock cage.

I can not  speak to the Aaen's performance as I have never run one. But I have owned and run Stock, Bills, PT, and CT.

The bills was like everyone says torquey and flat but better than stock.  The PT was better than the bills.  The CT was MUCH better yet with More power than all the others I have tested with more power everywhere but not a real high rev pipe.  Great all around snappy mx power but not a real high rpm screamer.  Still  hands down better than the others I have run.

I can not compare it to the Aaen or the newer bread of pipes.  From what I have read from many others I would say the aaen would be far  far far better to the PT.

If they can't kick start it--THEY CAN'T RIDE IT
