WTB - People 250 Exhaust
« on: October 10, 2021, 06:09:03 PM »
In need of a complete exhaust system for 2004. Existing system is cracked in multiple places. I will repair it, but want a replacement as it will probably crack again. Replacement doesn't have to be OEM (too $$$). It must be quiet, or at least no much louder than OEM.
Thanks for any guidance you can provide!

Thanks for the thought. My exhaust is one piece (muffler and head pipe). And my head pipe is toast. I need the entire exhaust system.

My local dealer said this is a know problem wth the Kymco 250's - People 250, Grandvista 250, etc.  Bought my GV250 with 2,600 miles and my exhaust first cracked at about 12K miles.   I welded it like 6 times or more.  Finally, I switched to a custom muffler off a BMW 1200 GS but eventually the pipe leading to it cracked again.  I believe the motor shakes excessively and that stress cracks the exhaust which is bolted in place.
