TOPIC:

I didn't take any "before" pics - this would just have been of the bike minus exhaust and of the exhaust as supplied.
If you go to the Delkevic website they have an online brochure with pics of their products laid out.
Engineering is excellent and close fitment iis part of the quality.
Jjust need to ensure everything is lined up before tightening of hardware:
1. Fit headers - don't tighten nuts fully - this allows positioning of headers into collector and alignment
2. Attach collector to headers with springs
3. Slide muffler onto collector, don't tighten clamp yet
4. Attach footrest bracket to footrest bolt and muffler, finger tighten bolts
5. Check all is aligned (and looking good) then torque up header nuts, rear bracket bolts,
footrest nut then muffler/collector clamp.
6.Get beer, take pics and enjoy the sound (Yet to hear mine!)!

I just bought a Delkevic exhaust for my KZ650C2.
I bought it off the Delkevic website, and had it at my work from USA to Canada in a day.
Just installed it today, and did fire her up, but did not have time to take her for a ride.
This weekend is supposed to be nice.

Very nice Rob.
I do like that straighter style muffler. How is the sound ? deeper, higher or about the same as your old one ?

I see they have one for the 750/4 and am tempted but think i'll wait until the exchange rate with the Canadian $ improves. Or maybe tax refund time in the Spring.

Hi John.
My old Kerker had holes in it, so it was really loud.
I had that pipe for almost 30 years.
Still have to get used to the Delkevic.
Seems to have a bit of a burble at low revs.
At speed, sounds great.
Here is a video just after installation, and another getting up to 4th gear.
I turned my phone on video, and put the phone in my pocket.

Some more pictures:

Thanks for posting that Rob
Sounds as good as it looks.

Nice looking pipe Rob. Nothing better than some new shiny stuff on the bike!

That new straight muffler is great! I would have bought a Delkevic earlier but I didn't like the megaphone with the welded seam halfway through it.

Just bought a steel Yosh or Yosh replica (I'm not sure which) which is okay but it will need to be painted now and then.

that is nice.

It looks really nice, but what about the oil filter?
Can it be changed without removing the headers?

I would say yes, you can change the oil and filter, but I haven't yet.
While installing there looked to be lots of room to remove the filter.
I thought the website stated oil & filter removal with exhaust installed.
Maybe it's their megaphone system.

Got out for a chilly November evening ride.
Was supposed to go into Toronto for the Thursday Night bike meet, but it was too cold.
Decided to go for wings instead with a couple of buddies.
Too cold for one to ride, so he drove, and took this video of me beside him;
