The ir pipes are made of heavy, 18-gauge steel for durability and come WIth th ree billet -aluminum head flanges that, accor ding to ESR, shorten or exten d th e pipe, w hen necessary, in order to emp hasize low -end , top-end or midrange power. ESR says t hat, w hen using the stand ard flange, you receive mcreased powe r thr oughout the rev range, w hile the low -end flange gives excellent low -end and midranqe. and th e top end flange prov ides excellent midrange and to p -end. Thi s eliminates the need to buy mu lti pl e pi pes to sui t mu lti ple tracks, riding conditi ons or even riding styles. It will uti lize your factory silencer and factory mounting locations. Th e pipes are currently availa ble for 1999-2001 Yamaha YZ250s and 1997-2001 Honda CR250s, w ith more models to come. 92 NOVEMB ER 1 , 2000' cue I e n eVIl's
