    (careful of the F-bombs...family site) :shock:

    I would expect it to be a Muffler , since it states "Slip-On" , with the exception of the one line that says "and it offers the added bonus of outstanding performance in a value-priced package." , with package being the key word , which makes it sound like it could be a full system , the wording is somewhat misleading i would think , the overall description leads me to believe it's just a muffler , as i saw no mention of the word "header" , but that one line can be misleading and/or clever wording to sell a product... , did you get duped ?? , i can't say , i guess it depends on the price of the item , if its over a few hundred ($400+), then they mislead you , and i would contact them about it

    Sorry Jim quite right have edited it out bud


    Cost me $400 inc shipping to the UK which worked out about £100 cheaper than buying in the UK but thats only if it was a full system.

    I read the title and description and took it as a system. I wouldnt usually class an end can as a system if I was writing a title for an advert but then again I prob should of been more careful and double checked in the first place :(

    I been trying to see if I could buy the headers elsewhere now but cant find anywhere that sell them :? Reckon I'd have a case to dispute it on ebay or just take it on the chin?

    If its been only a short while , usually eBay is fairly decent at giving refunds/making it right , when it comes to discrepancies or miscommunication with the seller , have you by chance contacted the seller to see if he will refund/cancel the sale ??

    I buy a lot of stuff on eBay and have found any reputable seller will work with you if its a legitimate claim , and with you thinking it was a full system , is a legitimate claim i would think , especially if you remark to him that you could get a complete system for X amount , so you interpreted the price to mean Full System , along with part of the description , though it does not specifically say its not a full system in the add , it does not specifically say its not , so its grounds for confusion or misrepresentation , if they are willing to work with you , the worst i would think is you might have to pay Return Shipping , but other than that i would think it would be a easy fix , i would also tell them that even though the deal went bad , you would still leave Positive Feedback (if they are willing to work with you), as that always makes them bend to the buyers way more often than not

    If they wont respond (and its documented that you contacted them and gave them X amount of time to reply) ,(not counting weekends) , then contact eBay customer Support and file the claim , you may also just contact them anyway so they are aware of the situation , so they can check into it if need be , and so its not a derogatory conflict on your eBay account ..., as well as they can guide you on the proper way to handle this and what steps to take first ...

    If anything , you will go slightly leaner , depends on what jets are in it now and what your elevation is

    This is a basic Jetting Chart for a 450 , use it for a guide , but go 1-2 sizes smaller than what is shown for main , and 1 size for Pilot (not exact but it should be close)


    Jetting Guide for Main Jet:(pilot 45) CRF450R/X

    Sea level....165
    2000 ft.......162
    4000 ft.......160
    6000 ft.......158
    8000 ft.......155


    Temperature/Elevation:
    One main jet size (up/down) for every 2,000 feet or 25 degrees in temp.
