Are any Lifan KPM200 owners running an aftermarket exhaust?

If so, any recommendations? All I've been able to find is an exhaust for the KPR200. I assume it's the same engine, but I'm not sure if the header is interchangeable.

Nice! Was it a pretty straightforward install or did you have any fitment issues? How does it sound? Better than stock?

The fit is a little tight. I'm pretty sure I have the exhaust stressed in a few places, but tried to relieve it as best as I could.

I have pictures of it with the KP-Motoclub muffler, and my knock-off SC project muffler.

Basically, it actually points a little higher than the stock exhaust. And the bracket at the bottom doesn't bolt to anything I suggest that when you go to install it, install with the muffler on. But, do not put the springs on it until you have everything else tightened down. You'll have to do some twisting to get the muffler to sit correctly.

The exhaust with the the silencer in doesn't sound much better than the stock system, in my opinion. I still hear intake noise more than the exhaust at speed. It sounds muffled, and you can ride through a neighborhood at night and not annoy anyone. Now, with the silencer off... oh boy. Sounds better than every single knock-off muffler I've ever had. It gives a nice deep tone at idle and lower rpms. It get's a little tinny higher up in the power band, but not too bad. It really is a legit piece of kit. And, I gained an extra 500 rpm of usable powerband (700 with the silencer out).

Awesome, thanks for all of the detailed info.
