Brilliant! A fellow cheapskate who does not want to throw silly money at a venerable bike........

£190. https://www.feked.com/hinckley-triumph-bonneville-premium-vickers-silencers-complete-kit.html
Cranborne, Dorset so fairly local to you.

Standard pilots should not need changing.

So for about £250 you will have a very appreciable mid range torque improvement and a manly burble. It says nothing on the pipes and they are sufficiently inoffensive to not cause MoT issues. Quality is surprisingly good. The only downside is the short adapter to accommodate the kink in the header pipe. Seal with ordinary silicone.

 

Wash your mouth out Dilli!!

 

@Marshallnut. I’m on Motad’s and the sound is very British and still within noise limits

 

I thought I’d seen a vid.......

 

I’m sure someone will be along to answer your question soon @half ton will probably know.

 

They are completely unmarked.......a pattern item from yesteryear.

 

Not an issue. I was just clarifying lest there be any doubt.......but they do have quite a Meriden note.

 

Even then just put a sticker over any markings before the MOT. The tester can't remove the stickers. Then make sure you choose a tester who isn't fussed about noise.

 

I know where you are coming from with the desire for a nicer sounding set of pipes, stock are tame to put it mildly. But . . . . . don't think of altering them as "mucking them up"! For the cost of a hole saw (£12), and a couple of hours "work", I now have pipes that sound as good, if not better, than some costing over £600. Triumph made very good pipes for the bike, they just overdid it with the restrictors and baffles.

Also if it goes pear-shaped with the "pipe-improvements", there are lots of sets of standard silencers out there on e.bay etc for next to nothing, as so many people buy aftermarkets.
