Pipe identification

[afraz1er]

Anyone recognize this? Resale value? Trade value? Think I'd rather have a b pipe.

Either a factory pipe type 4 or a Riva freeride pipe which was made by factory pipe. They are both very similar only a few minor differences. Great pipe but heavy and hard to keep in place. Not worth a whole lot to this community.

Looks like riva freeride with some custom mods. The brace at elbow and coupler flange are not original for sure. I had one of the riva pipes and the flange broke like this one probably did. The flange that's welded on looks to a machined piece pretty sure they didn't come that way, at least mine wasn't and I bought from riva new. Mine also didn't have the two water outlets on top section. Pipe ran great! IMO pulled much harder than any ski I've rode with b pipe! Only issue was couldn't keep a coupler from blowing out after about 15-20 hours. Tried adjusting around all different ways, finally got a am hull and had to sell anyway. I sold mine for 275 shipped, but I want to move quick so I could buy a b pipe.

Got the manifold off. It's a Riva

You can pressure check the chamber to see if it's still got a good water jacket

Those pipes are badass,but a pain in the butt to maintain

I've read alot of exactly that. My skis have enough maintenance as it is. Even just trying to get it out I had to unbolt and shift the engine sideways and turned about 90 degrees.

The key to using these pipes is the initial setup and proper alignment. With some mods and patience it can be a reliable pipe that put some serious Power in your ski. I could get mine out in about 10 minutes, unlike my current b-pipe...

How does one of these compare to a c4 chamber bpipe ? On a ported high compression 701

They rip to the moon, and with water injection you can have bottom end too

Decided to sell it. Based on comments above, on FB, and other research.

275 seems a little low....But I've been wrong before. What's a fair asking price ?

Depends how complete it is, and if there are repairs. With manifold, coupler, orings, and mounts, I wouldn't let that go for under 400.

Put a sprayer at the manifold and run a hump coupler. Have yourself a poor mans powerfactory pipe.

The step inside the pipe flange is going to mess with the exhaust pulse

There wouldnt be a step if the pipe is in to the manifold all the way.

This step

O your are talking about how the pipe is made. Not how the two bolt together.
