yep downpipes are good the stubby stainless are oval though which only becomes an
issue if you think you are going right back to stock and trying to fit the original pipe
covers !

Nothing wrong with delkevic

I love my 350mm Delkevic carbon fiber wrapped cans which are nice and loud without the baffles, the rest is stock. The quality is first class and I bet the header pipe is just as good too.

Well I'm not exactly practicing what I 'm preachin' in this thread as you will notice
in another thread I'm going down the viper can route mostly because they are round
and in theory that means the oem Honda pipe covers can go back on the bike .

I recently fitted delkevic headers on my 97 1kf. The first set didn't fit so was sent a replacement at no cost. I did have a problem trying to get the original silencers to fit and seal correctly. Ended up having to drill the holes out on the hangers to get a little adjustment to allow fitting and then used some firegum exhaust paste, coke can and gaskets to get a good seal. Alls well now but hope i don't need to remove the pipes any time soon as it was a pain blocking up the leaks. The headers themselves are well made.
