I reckon that's worth snaffling. I saw that a while back and couldn't help admiring the finish. Not sure if it's a genuine one or an after market look-a-likee but worth a punt.
Perhaps it'll keep until the next pay day..... all part of the gamble.

its a couple of years back, i got a delcovic SS headers and box unit for £99 delivered to ni. here pictured beside the bike.
i matted the underside with PJ1, (ha ha, ya can't buy it any more and i bought 12 cans at a fiver eack(then) only one left today.


the old girl got the new washers and gaskets and clamps all included, and my can's were in great condition.

grubby in there , , so i chemical cleaned the alloy at the front that was manky, and got the centre stand off and powder coated.

truly a great ride.

............ i don't like the one side conversions, bits missing like the shaped exhauxt shields, and the balanced look from the rear.

if i may add my experience to this... i too converted mine to a single exhaust can, initially by removing the silencer and manufacturing a blanking plate.
later on i removed this, and the little 'stub' of collector box, and cut and plated the collector box at approx 45 degrees to 'deflect' the exhaust up the one remaining link pipe. this made a NOTICABLE difference to the performance, right across the rev range.

Default exhaust plug.

Sprock If you still have that extra plug, I would love to have it. I cannot seem to find one near me. Please contact me. I cant send you a pm for some reason.
