I just got my warrior on sat. 2007 9 miles hehe. I think i got a pretty good price on in. 10500 including the 4 year tire warranty.
My brother has a 05 warrior with the purple ghost paint, I fell in love with it so i went out got got me a new 07 midnight.
Its a real sleeper.
I love the quite pipe but would like a down pipe better, so i can move the rear foot pegs for the wife down.
I wondering are there any down pipes that are close to as quite as the factory pipe. or is there a header out there some where where i can lower the factory exaust a few inches.
My bro has a Vance Hines 2 in to 1 and its sounds very sweet. But i really want to keep the bike a sleeper.
1st, welcome to the best dam forum "period"!!!!
Now...
Where's the pics my brotherrerrrrrr!!!!!
congrats on the new scoot! these things are a blast to ride. Oh and good luck keepin the bike quiet. seems most of us (not all of us) like them louder....so the cagers around us know we are there.!! keeps them awake!!!! I HOPE!!
And congrats on the new ride...Oh Yeah! Another Midnight Warrior to add to our ranks...
Look out guys! The dark side is taking over...
Anyway...As for pipes...Most anything aftermarket will probably make the bike louder. Which isn't a bad thing...Because actually in my opinion the Warrior sounds a lot better once she's opened up. Lose the water heater exhaust and get some good pipes, so your new beast can breathe and sound better.
There is a lowering kit for the passenger pegs offered by Yamaha...They drop the pegs down about an inch or so, I think...Might want to look into giving them a try...
may I ask what part of Tx you found a Midnight in? I was looking for a Midnight (I'm in dfw area) and a friend at a Yamaha dealership told me the closest one was about 180 miles south. Called them and they wanted $11.7K out the door, from a $10.3K price (for new '07). They wouldn't budge from the price so I might settle for a charcoal silver for $10.5k otd.
Welcome to the team Robert and many congrats on your new Midnight. I'm not aware of any aftermarket pipes that are as quiet as the stockers. The Yammi Speedstar pipes might be what you're looking for, they're quiet(ish) in the low revs but let out a nice deep roar when you rip open the throttle, they're excellent for a performance improvement over stock too.
Im looking for a down style pipe like the vance hines 2 in to one.
but would like one much quiter. My brother has a vh pro on his bike and yes it sounds very awsome but i really want a pipe that is much quiter.
the reasons i want a lower pipe are:
1. to lower the buddy pigs. he did it on his bike very wife friendly.
2. if i add bags for a road trip more room to drop them on.
God Bless bob
ps your pipe is very cool. the post just before this post.. very pimping.
I just bought a 2006 warrior a few weeks ago. I am very impressed with it i have had harleys forever but my body couldn't take the vibrations & I didn't like the prices for what I wanted. So far I love this bike. It's stock with a dynajet controller in it. I don't think the dealer new it was on...
Help me decide...
1. 2006 Blue 18k miles, Sissy bar, Engine guards, new tires, recent oil change, small windshield and Vance and Hines short shots (super loud) I would definitely put quiet baffles on it. Has no fuel controller. Just under $4k Owner has had it for 2 years.
2. 2002 27K miles...
So far im loving it! It already had 18" ape hangers and loud Vance and Hines pipes, and a corbin seat with backrest. I took the backrest off, ill prolly just use it for longer rides. The bike is my daily. I know sure i want to get a fender eliminator and move the license plate to the side. I...
Hello again
Made a mistake selling my Warrior 3 years ago but I've managed to track it down and buy it back with only 155 miles added :oops:
looking for an original seat in any condition if anyone has one for sale let me know.

Second season now on the beast, it was gifted to me by my father last summer as my first bike, and dubbed Venom by me. Thrill to rip which I do every chance I get, although I'm waiting on a belt to ship in, put on, and get my fix. I've heard of a couple warrior riders in Sioux Falls area one who...
