Gnarly on 2018 gp 300?
Hi guys.
Could anyone tell me if the pipe that comes in the GP300 2018 is FMF GNARLY? Thanks. |

No it is not a Gnarly.
It's a GP/XC pipe on the parts fiche for the XC. |

Yes it is a gnarly. I have both pipes and they are identical I?ve taken measurements around the chamber in several different spots on both pipes. The GasGas pipe is the exact same as the gnarly except it says GasGas on the side. They use the same mold. I called FMF and asked them and they confirmed it as the gnarly pipe.

I was told by the FMF rep that the only way to get the actual pipe that came on my XC was to buy it through GasGas. |

I want to take the "that's odd" part of that comment back.
Actually It doesn't surprise me much at all thinking back and realizing that I've seen XC bikes on the show room floor with pipes that looked like the EC model and EC bikes on another dealer's floor that had FMF marked pipes that appeared to be the same as the one on my XC . . . |

Being that my Factory XC pipe is physically different from the FMF Gnaryl I bought I'm pretty sure that GG is doing the same thing as KTM/Husky regarding their brand stamped pipe in that it's a thick walled Fatty shaped pipe. The Austrians call their heavy walled, Fatty shaped expansion chambers the "Factory" pipe. https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p...pipe-p?v=14999 Not to be confused with the "FMF Factory Fatty" which is a "works" finish, thin walled Fatty. Honestly, I'm getting the vibe that some GG bikes are being shipped with what ever they can grab off the stock shelf when parts are delayed or damaged at one point of shipping or another. If that's the issue I get it: GG and the dealers gotta do what they gotta do to get units on the floor and out the door. |

The XC pipe looks identical to the Gnarly when it’s laying on the floor. They have VERY different power characteristics though. I would have bet a paycheck that they are the same until I rode with the Gnarly. It has noticeably more bottom end and signs off much earlier than the stock XC pipe.
