I originally posted a photo of a KTM 250 SX-F FMF Megabomb headpipe mated to a KTM 350 SX-F 4.1 FMF muffler and my DM’s flooded with questions. Why does it do? Why stick the 250 headpipe on the 350? Normally when you purchase an aftermarket muffler system you usually get a smoother roll…

We all know Kawasaki left a lot of room for improvement on the muffler side of things on the 2024 Kawasaki KX450. We have tried a number of mufflers to help increase the low end torque and have been happy with a couple. The latest muffler we tested was…

Aftermarket muffler manufacturers rejoice! The 2024 Kawasaki KX450 has A LOT of room for improvement with its muffler system.
