I am nearing the end of a long slow complete rebuild of my RGS. The only outstanding need is for a track silencer that fits well. I always used to buy these from George Prew, as stuff from him always fitted. (I bought the exhaust pipe from him a few years ago - yes, it's a slow rebuild :) ) But he's out of stock and his supplier isn't making any more. I have seen reports on other forums of bad fits from both Armours and Wassell products. The ones from Feked and Draganfly I haven't seen any reports of.
Can anyone report a source of a silencer that fits like it should please? The old BSA ones were perfect in that respect. If I wasn't so ancient I might make one!
Thanks for any and all help,
Jon
Have a look at fecked. They are made on site and triple layer chromed.
Have a look on classicbikeshop website. I got twin goldstar silencers at a reasonable price and they are well made.
Regards Rich.
Thanks for your help guys. I'll let you know how I get on, probably the other side of Christmas. It's the fit of the silencer I'm most interested in - a badly fitting exhaust can easily spoil an otherwise good bike.
Cheers,
Jon
Try Roger Sharman of Cake Street Classics. He recommissioned my '62 RGS some years ago and did a wonderful job.
Hi James, just noticed your reply. I used to use Roger Sharman for parts like that, but he retired a while back.
Kind regards,
Jon
