Pipe Mods for Zongshen Storm 250

zrxwest · 12-07-2008, 10:41 PM

hey there. i have a 2006 model zongshen 250 Vtwin, my model is shown here, this website also has a little video of the bike being ridden.

http://www.superbyke.co.uk/product.p...ngShen+ZS250-5

This bike has a cloned version of the XV250 motor, but I think more folks are familar with the Lifan 250 as far as cloned XV250's from China go.
This short youtube is of a Lifan 250 with Marving exhaust that is made for the Vrago 250..

My stock exhaust is a 2-1. It is very poor, since this bike is CARB/California approved. To Restrictive! I have had no luck finding an aftermarket set of pipes, only the Marving (designed for the Virago 250) that CBXMan wants $450 for, but i love the sound on this one however!

I would try to modify a stock/used Virago 250 system, if I can get my hands on one!

tia,

You could drill it out if it's too restrictive? It's the cheap choice.

i dont think that does alot for the sound though. listen to that video of the lifan, that is the sound I want!

ive had my exaust off for the past few months (waiting on replacement american lifan get yout thumb outta your wazoo and just put a shipping lable on it and send it on) and i fire my bike up every few days for a few seconds just to keep it running and honestly i like the tone coming out of the rear bank pipe (has a nice chop to it) and have been thinking about running the same thing from the front bank straight out the back and connect a piece to the rear bank and run it out the back.
