Sparky Spark Arrestor

MattCA · 02-28-2008, 09:31 PM

I was looking into these sparky spark arrestors because they are cheaper than buying a whole new silencer. I was wondering if they would fit and aftermarket silencer. I have a Pro Circuit 2006 R304 "Shorty" silencer on my 2001 Honda CR125R. I was wondering if the 01 Honda cr125 one would still fit it.

Eh nvm found a new FMF Turbine II for less than the sparky thing. Sorry guys.

EDIT: Quick question though. My g/f has a 2005 TRX400EX. Isn't there a screen you can put into the stock muffler? Will it pass inspection?

You can make a spark arrestor out of a piece of metal screen and some JB Weld. My buddy did it to pass and it worked. It looked legit and that is all a spark arrestor essentially is.

Well idk how strict they are. I have never been there. Isnt there a screen you can put in the stock trx400 muffler? I think its $20.

i thought it came with the stock exhaust on those 4 wheelers?

MattCA · 02-29-2008, 06:57 PM

Idk maybe. Ill look into it.

I didnt. I was going to as a cheap alternative for when I go to McCain valley than take it off for the desert.

Is the end cap supposed to face up like that? Also should you be able to see the screen inside? What should it look like?

wr250f95 · 03-01-2008, 08:10 PM

that end cap is upside down.
there should be yes, when you correct the end cap you will know for sure.
