Hello. I would like to upgrade my TGB R50X Jetfighter. For now my scooter is stock. In the 1. stage of tuning I will change the exhaust. Can you recommend to me what is the best exhaust for TGB R50X Jetfighter (European model) that works good with stock version of scooter and base kit.

I was thinking to buy a Giannelli Reverse exhaust. Also I think about to by a Giannelli CR Extra exhaust.

Does anyone of you use any of this 2 exhausts? What of this 2 gives a better performance?

Not knowing the pipe you want to use and just looking at the pictures
you posted,  i would say the chrome one goes faster!!!! :D
Keep in mind there may be no difference between the two pipes but the
chrome plating...
don't forget to up jet if you change the pipe. do a plug chop to see if it
needs to be done.
FYI: the rear end on the R50X has a bit better, more aggressive  gear ratio
 than the other TGB scooters , at least in the US version.

 You might want to check out post about a R50X mod for some pointers

Hi there,
if it was up to me, I'd go the reverse,I have ridden one with the reverse on it and it went real well.
I think that Giannelli make one that bolts straight on too,but I'm not 100% sure,if not I think its only a mounting bracket mod.Giannelli make, I think one of the best pipes for the r50x,,,THE REVERSE.

GOOD LUCK WITH IT,,,,,,,,ENJOY THE RIDE
