NEW SANKEI SILENCERS BEING MANUFACTURED

[Nurse Julie]

Just seen this, it may be of interest to some. I don't know anything about it other than what is written. 198,000 Yen = just under £1000 GBP at today's exchange rate.

Was there anything about the double-skinned headers/collector box Julie? Probably of more significance than the silencer.

No Ash, nothing mentioned about the headers.

A £1000 for a silencer .

I think for the sake of a Sankei makers stamp and a part number I'd rather spend £200 on a pattern silencer and use the £800 change on a holiday

Whilst this may be good news for some, £1,000 is an awful lot of dosh just for a silencer. I see that DSS has very good pattern ones in stock for £188. Is it worth an extra £800 just to obtain the correct name/number engraving?

Perhaps Delkevic may start making them.

Not sure what is going on with Brituro who makes (made) them for DS, Yamiya, Classic Bike Shop etc. as they stopped trading recently but then started up again as another name.
