I've seen them start several fires, but not from a spark out the exhaust. :)

Hot header in dry grass = fire.

Though I've seen far more fires started by trucks in the same way. Almost lost several vehicles on a job site once that way, including a giant drill rig!

Always clear the grass from under your vehicle and don't crash in dry grass ;)

Wow I've never seen 1 dirt bike start a fire and you've seen several, you must have some bad luck on that subject....:(

We're were pretty stupid growing up :)

EDIT: I find it funny not one of those guys used their built in ditch digger (rear tire and lots of throttle) to stop that fire right quick. Plus half the guys just dumped their bikes on the ground too. Surprised they didn't have 5 fires.

Why would they have a class in a dry grass field anyway??? I think in my original statement they were looking for documented fires where fire departments or forest fire fighters were called. :-k

So a friend bought a KTM 350 sxf that had a Lexx slip on exhaust and he wanted to change, so he let me see if it fit my Husaberg, it looked like to would bolt right up and it did. ;) The muffler is the same length as my 2007 FE450 stock exhaust but the little adapter is 3" long or so. I guess they use the same muffler but adapter specific for your bike. Also the way it mounts is with a strap and only the back one is used. Decent alternative for some looking for an exhaust. I put my stocker back on, but I'll mess around with it later for pictures.

Cool. If you get a chance to mount it up I love to see some pictures.
