Sorry if this has been asked a thousand times before.....

I'm picking up my new bike tomorrow, it passed an MOT today but the advisory said the "exhaust has a minor leak" .

Would anybody recommend replacing with he Blackwidow or Delkevic systems ??

Thanks

Either is fine, both are good, personal choice.

Both coming in at the same price, is one better/recommended over the other ?

gsxbarmy

No they are both equal IMO, so it really is down to personal choice.

See what feedback you get from those that have fitted their systems to see what they say.

For a 4-2 I like the Delkevic better as they come with the exhaust covers.

Did they point out where the leak is? May just be a gasket.

Ive went ahead and ordered the Delkevic system 👍
The bike has only covered 309mls in the last 4yrs!!
Needs a clean and tidy up but looking forward to picking it up tmrw now 👏

No.

I would recommend either the Akra or Yoshi full system though.   ;)

Quality of the Akra or Yoshi is very good but If he want to have a 4-2 ? Delkevic, Blackwidow, Blueflame, GPR, Devil - similar and good aftermarket ones  :)

Delkevic down pipes & collector box, Scorpion end cans. All SS so should hopefully last a while 👍

I've had both. Delkevic every time. Black widow started to look like they had been left in a swamp. Delkevic come with nice side plates like OEM - but, not the cost. been fitted two years now - no issues. Still look new too.

Before I forget. Take off the screws holding the side covers on. Use some thread lock. 10 minute job. Saves losing the fixing screws... I lost one.
