I love that colour on the F model, I bought a new boxed tank in that colour from DSS in 1987 for £28, plus £5 for matching tailpiece. Never could get the seat trim to match, so used a black one from a 750F2, looked okay. I'll NEVER understand why Honda fitted those hideous U.S. spec bars to a "Super Sport" model, just totally wrong! Have fun riding it, they are great bikes.

Thanks for the tip Steve

Dave. Did the Delkevic system all line up ok when you fitted it, or did you have to make any adjustments??

davefirestorm:
Downpipes and collector box all went straight on but when the silencer was fitted the gap between bracket and frame was around 3/4” ,overcame this by turning up a spacer on lathe.The little bracket supplied to stop centre stand hitting chain was completely useless and would never fit so again I improvised with a nylon bush not pretty lol but will do till I can make a decent one.Pleased with the quality overall considering only £310 delivered and centre stand retained and access to oil filter too.

I had the same gap issue on the Suzuki. I shortened the header pipes slightly on 1 and 2 to pull the collector box round slightly that put the silencer into the correct position. Worked well as I had to shorten a miss made pipe anyway. They are great exhausts if you don't mind a bit of manoeuvring to get them fitted right.
