PirateRiderBen Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Delkevics mufflers are built fine for the price point. Comparing it to a 1000$ Ak system is like getting upset your KLR doesn't have the same features that your R1200GS has. I'm on my third Delky pipe on 2 different VFRs and they sound okay. They are not Staintunes or Akra's but for the money they sound good. They hold up well in my experience, though I just installed a CF pipe last night so we will see how it holds up compared to the stainless pipes. Nobody has a magic muffler that nets you 10 wheel horsepower. Slip on systems are noise makers and I personally cannot justify spending 600-800-1000$ on a noise maker, not when there's suspension and 8 spoke wheels and bar risers etc out there to buy too. And especially owning more than one bike, I don't have the funds to go balls to the walls on every bike with the highest of high components. I would rather have sticky tires and good suspension and a delkevic pipe than a Staintune and a VFR with stock suspension. -PRB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I was glad the PO of my 6 Gen bought the 2Bros before he traded it in! I used the money I saved for other mods, suspension being one of them, an 8 spoke being another. I'd much rather have a suspension upgrade over spending the same, if not more on an exhaust system. A machine that handles better is much more desirable than one that just sounds "meaner". Of course there are bargains and finds on the forum or eBay that can get you that sound without breaking the bank! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Mikey Posted September 20, 2016 Author Member Contributer Share Posted September 20, 2016 Decided to go with a BOS high mount, very satisfied with that decision so far. The sound is similar to the factory can, possibly a bit louder, definitely deeper up to 6K. Installation was a bit fiddly at the passenger foot peg mounting location, nothing a round file couldn't take care of. The BOS won over the Two Brothers 8th gen can because Two Brothers claimed it wouldn't fit a fifth gen and I didn't want to get stuck with fitment issues. The BOS and Delkevic are the only two 5th gen high mounts that I know of, I preferred the look and fit of the BOS. The BOS customer service are second to none, highly recommended.

Member Contributer Mikey Posted September 20, 2016 Author Member Contributer Share Posted September 20, 2016 And a pic showing how tight this can is to the plastic and tire. Was a bit concerned about the can heating up the tire, but after several hours of riding I was able to grab the can without earning a third degree burn, was actually surprised that it wasn't hotter.

PirateRiderBen Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Do they make a shorter can than that? Might consider one for my other VFR... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might consider one for my other VFR... That unfortunately is the only "standard" option for fifth gens. You may consider inquiring about shorter cans with the same flange dimensions to the mid pipe. There are a couple of low mount Remus cans on EBay for fifth gens, asking a lot though, $450.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PirateRiderBen Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Interesting their website doesn't show any options for VFR's other than the VFR1200X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer JZH Posted September 20, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted September 20, 2016 You can shorten most rebuildable end cans yourself... Ciao, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
