Delkevic for CB400f in the UK?
« on: April 17, 2019, 01:26:14 PM »
I've been working around to making a start on CB400 restoration project #2 and have been eyeing up Delkevic stainless exhausts for a while. I decided the time has come to buy one, but now I can't find a complete system on sale in the UK.

I put a David Silver replica on project #1, which is fine, but I fancy something different for this one.

Is this a temporary glitch? Does anyone know of a UK supplier with one in stock?

Suggestions for alternatives also gratefully received.

Cheers

Have you considered a Predator system? UK made, full stainless and guaranteed 10 years- unlike Delkevic...

Hadn't heard of predator. Will search for that. Thanks.

I heard back from Delkevic:

"We did have them listed on the website , but the full system has been discontinued in the UK.
We had fitting issues with the brackets on UK bike models. It might be that this is different with US models.
It wasn't a perfect fit so we have taken them down. "

I'll look up predator now.....

When I Google Maaavics all I get is stuff about 'Mavis' (and I don't think I would buy an exhaust pipe marketed under the name Mavis!) Do they have a website?

Predator comes out at £640 which is only 100 quid short of a Yoshimura. I don't needit just yet,so I might wait a while see what comes along and go for yoshi perhaps.

Thanks for the suggestions. If anyone in the UK as a delkevic short/straight silencer they don't want.......

Gone and done it now. Ordered delkevic headers and silencer from different sources in the UK. Just have to hope it all fits together ok!

Thanks for the clarification on Marving.  Might go that way on project #3.
