Does anybody have some experience about this exhaust system?

http://www.delkevic.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=11286&search=cb750&Title=+Full+Exhaust+System+to+fit+CB750K+SOHC+%281969-1976%29+with+Classic+Universal+Silencer+and+Stainless+Steel+4-1+Down+Pipes&SKU=COM2775


Check it out on Dino's '73 at You even get to hear it in action!

Thanks! It looks good and reasonably priced ;)

.....







Done this 2 months ago. Road race up and down cut. Two degree angle just on contact parts of dogs. It is hard to take pictures of this. Really precise machining here with small tolerances. 0.2mm of material taken on lower part of dogs... For all gears..

You guys are getting pushing and confident of how much power you hold over this visionary engineer.  That is some machining porn on the oil pump body you are making.
Look forward to your scratching the itch many of us have awaiting your update. Thank you for sharing with us the inspiration.

Thanks ;)

Currently I am doing so much work on the bike and on my job. I dont have to much time to post updated. And also I want to keep some things secret until I finish the bike.

I think I am at 80% of the build. So I hope At the and of January to be somewhere.

Just one thing. Special thanks to Yossef(turboguzzi) for finding me a metalshaper near Milano.

The only thing left for thinking is exhaust. I really dont like solutions you can buy. I originally wanted to make something similar to what Autofabrica made but they made it :)

Just small portion of things done... I cant post more for now

Amazing. 

The control parts (clip ons, levers, perches, trees) look beautiful assembled.  The fender is elegant.  Are the two splines joining the fender to the wheel carbon fiber or metal? 

Also, it looks like the aluminum gas tank is finished?

Yes I redesigned front fender. Now it is made from top and 2 lower parts. It is easier to print and it is better fit between brakes and forks. Yes it is carbon bars joining 3 parts together ;) There are two stainless plates glued to lower 2  parts. This stainless plates protect plastic from heat and also give some structural stiffness.

Than, tail and light are finished :) brushed al. But I will redo finish

Outstanding!  Yes, let's see some photos of the tank and seat.  Based on the models you previously made, I bet these parts look spectacular.

This is a next step.And maybe somebody can help me. Does anybody have exact measurements of exhaust port openings location regarding the frame. I took some measurements(you can see in pictures) and I think they are not good
