Dual exhaust on Honda. I may be in the minority here but dual full carbon cans on the Honda were next level.

They went from single to duals and then back to singles and to duals again. Now we got single so I wouldn’t count it out for them to go to duals again one day who knows.


I miss it too that’s for sure

Geico bikes with duals were super cool.

Didn't like it at all. Bulky and unnecessary

Yeah, no as the kids would say. Looks awesome to me on some street bikes swept up and two coming out under the seat , but never did it for me on dirt bikes.

Let's see... we've already designed a big, heavy and expensive 4-stroke to take over Motocross, but something's missing. I KNOW! ADD MORE WEIGHT AND COST!!!!

Remember the commercials? " better balance in the whoops, and in the turns".

Hard to believe Honda kept that crap for as long as they did.

With sound regulations continuing to get more stringent dual pipes may be revisited. I don't think I'd want them on my bike but they looked badass.

It was funny back then people called it a gimmick on Hondas but exotic and smart on TMs.

Mettet pipes 1.jpg?VersionId=tyFKbR5D0R3rLB2.iEWe have to run twin pipes in SM to pass noise test these days.

Not at all, they added weight and cost more.

I had a 2015 250F and 2020 450 Hondas, both were equally horrible.

Meh, seemed pointless. I always assumed some clueless Honda exec went to a race, couldn't tell which bikes were Honda, and demanded something to readily distinguish them.

I always liked the header pipe routing on the 09-14 Crf. Good looking bikes.

Not a fan of the dual exhaust look, but I'm in favor of the shorties coming back.

Weight isn’t a bad thing. I like a heavier bike with more stability. Are you really worried about 4 extra pounds?

Nope. It's completely pointless.

Also, a buddy of mine has probably been through $4k+ in muffler replacements on his 2019, lol...

Always seemed dumb to me. Unnecessary complication, makes stupid expensive exhaust systems even more expensive, additional weight and no apparent power advantage. 

I’m a no, don’t miss them at all

Sounds like your buddy needs to keep it on two wheels….

I remember Josh Grants 250 was reported the loudest bike ever at the 2006 Mcgrath invitational…

I still have a stock 06' dual system in my rafters. Talk about taking up space for nothing lol.  It's my sons bike. We put an FMF power bomb on it and never looked back

They are readily available in Europe, DVR , Tecmo, Arrow, and a few others make them. 

Faff to fit, would not want to use them for MX .
