GT1000 ContiReplicas by Keihan - Metal Art!

[vinylengraver]

So I ordered the stainless Conti silencer slip-on kit fro my GT1000 from Keihan Systems in UK a few weeks ago and today I received the package. All I can say is that I AM SPEECHLESS.

I don't care if you like classic motorcycles, or motorcycles at all. If you're a guy, you must love things made of metal. And If you do - you gonna LOVE these things. They are, for a lack of a better word - like a giant friggin' jewelery for guys (who like bikes).
Several pounds of liquid-like metal awesomeness.

The quality is outstanding. I tried to capture the detail of the finish, the welds, the slim ad super-sexy silhouette. Even the baffles and brackets are like small pieces of metal art.
I will mount them tomorrow and take some pictures on the bike.

Here are a few pictures, straight out of the box. Enjoy!









This last picture is an attempt to capture the level of workmanship quality - the "ring" detail is actually a weld, if you can believe it... this one is exposed and shaped/polished to perfection - there are other welds on each silencer that are basically invisible. I do not think you could find a better quality pipe if you tried. And I am positive you won't find one near this quality for a comparable price.



I know I'm probably repeating the same praises spoken many a time before, but so what?!
If you were thinking of getting those, but were hesitating, don't.

Very nice. I came very close to pulling the trigger on these but held back for some reason and decided to keep the termis.

Post up a sound clip too. Did you get them from bevel heaven??

How much? I believe I was quoted around 1375 shipped to be door.

I got them direct from Keihan Systems in UK. The turn-around time was 2 weeks, shipping by DHL took 2 days. Excellent communication and superb customer service.

They are an amazing firm. I've dealt with them several times and have always been pleased.

Although I'm very happy with the Termis on my GT1000, I did replace the OEM silencer & collector box on a BMW R80 with some of Keihan's finest. Glad to see they have maintained the excellent quality of their workmanship.

Kept that Beemer for many years & rode it in all weathers. The pipes always cleaned up like new.

would love to see and hear a video of them after your install.

Glad to hear you're so happy with the purchase. I have to agree there's an appeal to polished metal that goes beyond functionality. I bought Conti Replicas from Pipemasters and think they've enhanced my GT in a very seamless and period-appropriate way.

You'll no doubt love the new sound as well. Congrats.

Oh, those are sweet! Looking forward to pics of 'em on the bike.

I've had Keihans on my S for a couple of years and have been very pleased with them.
Even with the baffles in they still sound great.

there was a promise in your initial post of images of these mounted. I'm prepared to receive them. commence.
