delkevic exhaust sizes
« on: 04 December 2014, 02:35:49 pm »
Hi  I'm thinking of treating myself to a new Delkevic silencer and am a bit unsure of what size/shape to get.  I'd like something a little louder and more rumbly than stock, but nothing too harsh.  I've seen they do a 450mm and a 350mm one but didn't know if the 450mm would be pretty much the same as my stock one?

Read quite a bit of negative comments over the years concerning Delkevic products. I haven't had any personal experience though.

I've been reading good things on here about them, that was the main reason behind looking at getting one.  Open to other suggestions though, I was looking at Beowolf ones too.

I've got Delcevic stainless downpipes and can, and a radiator. No problems with any of them, apart from the baffle fell out
of the can somewhere. Quality good in my opinion. At the time, it was that radiator or a genuine one, massive price difference
as you can imagine.

I have a delkevic 350mm end can, and I have to say I'm very pleased with it. Loud enough but not too loud that you would upset the neighbours. It has a baffle but I don't have it in as it has a nice crackle and pop on overrun. As for the quality, again I am very happy with it. Welds are very nice and neat (far better than the blue flame can that's on my VFR) Also price wise for what you get you can't go wrong.

I've got delkevic headers (mine are the one piece design) and tri-oval 320mm end can and found the quality and fitting were just fine. Personally I find mine too loud, even with the baffle in so wish I'd gone with the 420mm model.

Got a delk system and oval s/s can on my t'cat, and its great. No baffle, and its sporty without being obnoxious

My R1 has a delk stubby with no baffle, and its way, way, way too loud!
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

Blueflame for me. Baffle in it's nice and friendly but got a much nicer bassy note/fuller sound. Baffle out then it's pretty loud and gives a lovely bark when higher up the revs. Good quality, good price, looks smart, sounds great. I bought it direct from the blueflame website. It comes with the link pipe and all went together like a glove =)

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

I too have a Blueflame can as I had one on my Thou as well. They are very good and a nice note with the baffle out, I have no idea what they sound like with the baffle in :rolleyes . Mine is an oval though so not like the one above.

I love my Delkevic zorst,
Baffle in or out I wouldn't say its obnoxious, however crack the throttle open & it sounds great.

Love the high level look.
Where did you get the high level link pipe from Alan?
