Re: Glowing headpipe on a 150R FALSE!!!

My 150r does it (at night and only after idleing for about 4mins when warmed up) and its running on the rich side.

I hardly broke it in 4hrs tops...The bike sounds nothing like the vid in real life. Even my 2 stroke makes a ghey clicking sound when filmed with my cheap cam. I just got my RMZ250s motor back from PC, never used and the vid I made the same sound.

If your pipe is glowing red the bike is jetted wrong.

Without air cooling the pipe while riding its going to turn red after idling a little while.
I can only see mine glow at night.

Re: Glowing headpipe on a 150R FALSE!!!

It is totally normal for a head pipe to glow. Most people never notice it on a dirtbike because you are not WOT everywhere you ride.

glowing is NOT A SIGN of wrong jetting.

Most OEM pipes are double walled so it's hard to see, but every aftermarket pipe is single walled and they all glow, doesn't matter what kind of bike ( or car for that matter ) they all glow.

PM when you want to sell the bike, super interested already

You know your bike is cooled from air moving through your radiators, correct?
