550F Silencer

(1/3) > >>

Oggie400F:
Does anyone have recommendations for a replacement silencer or, if needed, a full system for a 550F that is not too loud.

The silencer that came with my Café Racer is a cut down straight through and, even after fitting a baffle, is far too loud for me.

Also I have measured the OD of the collector box outlet pipe at 56mm so am struggling to find a 'slip on' large enough to fit. Is this the correct size for the original header and collector box, they look original?

Trigger:
56mm sounds about right as, the silencer is 60mm ID and there is the gasket. I have a silencer that I was going to put up forsale.
A motad in Stainless is a good replacement, if you can find one  ;)

Oggie400F:
Cheers Graham
Is the one for sale on original?
Either way I'm interested as if it's original I would like it just in case I return the bike to stock spec.

cooleronthecoast:
Good luck with finding an original Oggy. I've seen more Unicorn turds recently!   Lol.   I have a 550 Motad system in the shed (I'll see if I can get a photo posted up here or if you give me your email I'll send you one if you are interested).  Its in reasonable shape but I ended up buying a Delkevic stainless system for mine so the Motad is surplus to requirements.

Oggie400F:
I've looked at the Delkevic system but wasn't sure how they sound.
Is yours the straight or megaphone silencer and is it loud?
If you can post a photo of the Motad I may be interested.

Mind you, if Trigger sells me his for 99p I won't need it! 🤣🤣🤣
