Giannelli vs stock

[Calum]

RE/X are the same. R is slightly different.

[jonne123]

But with little modificarion they fit?

[Calum]

Yeah, it's the same engine. There are a few mounts that aren't right. And the tail pipe is off every slightly. So needs a joiner.

Not particularly worth it IMO. Unless it doesn't cost you anything to make the parts and/or the part you're buying is dirt cheap.

So to confirm.

• Front mount won't align on the expansion chamber
• Middle Mount on expansion chamber won't align
• Rear Silencer doesn't align

[jonne123]

so these

[Calum]

Yeah those.

[jonne123]

so grinding and welding?

[Calum]

Or just some brackets. You will have to have a look on this forum where the mismatch is.

I'm pretty sure there is a photo about how far off the end can is.

it's not worth it IMO. Just get a DEP pipe that's fitted to the bikes frame.

[jonne123]

yes but i bought used one for 125 euros. we have welder so no problem.

[Calum]

I can't help feel like the contours are different. So you still need to mount the silencer in a different location. It's not worth the faff.

examble here

the seller said it came with 4bl 170cc big bore kit

[Calum]

Hhmm, also says it fits all models.

I know there are fitment issues with the DEP Pipe.

Personally wouldn't get an Athena exhaust, would go for something else but it says it'll fit.

[jonne123]

What do you succest? i dont have money for dep.

[Calum]

Should be able to get a used DEP for that price.

[jonne123]

But here in finland there is only giannelli or athena pipes used

[Calum]

That's odd that, as I can't say I'd recommend either of those pipes.

I'm sure they are fine. As I say, the DT just isn't a quick bike, so definitely don't spend too much $$$ trying to make it into something it's not.

By all means release some free ponies and just enjoy it for what it is.

[jonne123]

So the power gain is minimal?

[Calum]

Stock gutted is pretty decent.

The benefit is more weight.

If you are handy with a welder, then I'd look at having your current pipe derestricted.
