Title: CB500 K1 exhaust systems
Post by: bobv7 on August 24, 2019, 10:07:54 AM
OK, I realise this has probably been asked a million times before. ::) Since both top and bottom right hand pipes look like they are about 90% filler and Silvers don't think they will have any new sets until January, can any of the learned company give their thoughts on replacement systems? Cheers :D

There's not so many alternative makes around to choose from now,  but Delkavic seem to make a decent stainless 4into1 system that would work well.

A few have used them on forum and they look good without any complaints seeming to come up.

Thanks Mate, they do seem reasonably priced.

They aren't too expensive and the examples I've seen have nice quality bending as well.  I think with programmed hydraulic bending machines used now they can get a really good product without costing the earth.

They do seem impressive to me.

Hopefully someone on here will give their own view,  there are some pictures buried on here of them fitted.

They look quite nice, a bit like the old Piper ones but >103 decibels is a bit too noisy for comfort :-\.
