You can buy a pre-made cone, all parts to make your own exhaust actually.

It appears from the pictures of etbike3135 that the collector and continuation of the muffler pipe hang under the bike considerably? Could the muffler mount be brought up a little to have the exhaust tuck up a little bit to reduce that clearance?

Thanks. I have already bought mine from them like a year ago. Designed a SS mount and had itTIG'd to the muffler. I made my mid pipe and used a Vance and Hines header, but really like the look of the Delkevic. So I'll adapt the two together and be done with it.

Well I bit the bullet and bought the header kit only. Will see how it looks with my SS reverse megaphone! Thanks to all those who posted pics of the actual product!

Everybody likes what the like. Don't have any idea about how it works for producing torque because I've never run one. But to me...it looks really bad. I don't see a single thing about that pipe that impresses me one bit. It's got a join ridge in the collector to kill flow and it's ugly to boot...... next :woohoo:

Sorry fresh out of sugar coating today :)


Wait.. I take part of that back. I like the head clamps...they're nice...

Well we all have opinions just like a certain body part part..... Lol! I am not interested in the muffler, but nicely bent SS primaries for $220 that I can use building my own exhaust....can't beat that.

Thinking the same, I would like just the 4 down tubes. Cut em up for the start of a custom low rider exhaust. I have access to a tubing bender. And my stainless steel friend works with the stuff for a world wide manufacturer.
