Ive just bought a standard exhaust chamber for my dt as my dep rusted thru. The part number on my new exhaust is 3RM 00 does anyone know what year bike this exhaust is off?
I cant guarantee that it's off that exact year but.. In the 'gut or not to gut sticky' it isn't mentioned and DeeTee said that his didn't need cutting open because his was the older restriction And mine was the newer restriction (cat convertor) So by the process of illimination it seems that yours might possibly be the one in the middle (the one with the half moon things)
Just try and hammer google and find out, or wait for some others to reply
I read that "to gut or not to gut" thread! Thats what pointed me towards it being around the 2000 sort of year.
The thing is its already been cut open and re welded but the drop in performance ive had since putting the standard one back on is making me think its still got somet inside it. Im struggling to get to 75 now and b4 i could go off the clock easy also its not revving freely and wont hit the redline where as b4 it would go right into the red.
Im gonna get someone to have a look at the dep next week so fingers crossed it can be fixed ill be gutted if it cant! Ill get a pic up later.
If it has a plastic cover (Leg protector thingy) on the exhaust then it probably does have a cat (unless it's already been gutted) As the fittings for the metal covers and the plastic covers use different mountings. But as i've already said in the ''to gut or not to gut'' thread my numbers for the exhaust and that it did include a cat. The numbers are infact different to frays so i'm quite positive it isn't the one with a cat fitted
Ive got the 3RM 00 exhaust on my Feb 2001 bike, I'm assuming its got the half moons, so for others reference, I'll update once Ive taken it off and hacked it in half!

There is one where it bolts to the engine too,,,the small pipe inside can be cut out,,like 3 lil welds and it's done.even the early one has sound deadening stuff to be taken out to be full power,,like the mesh stuff in the above pic,,it all has to come out
Fray, How is the derestricted pipe compared to the dep ?. When talking about performance ?
Ive got a 3mb exhaust that's either been gutted before or just doesnt have any restrictors in. I've recenty gotted rid of my DEP in favour of this and it seems alot faster.
Although I've also pegged open my powervalve soo...
