Piper 4-1 to fit A4

[zapo]

Does anybody have an original Piper 4-1 that they would like to sell, with or without baffle.
An immaculate NOS one would be great but that's probably a bit of a pipe dream. Pun intended
Failing that, a solid presentable chrome one or a solid one in need of rechroming.

Are you sure you meant Piper and not Alfa? The chances of finding a piper are sparkley rocking horse poo with rainbow sprinkles.
Delkevic is the closest your likely to get now.
They are well made and stainless at a reasonable price.

[zapo]

Yes, Piper.
Long, upswept straight silencer exiting on the right.
I know that they are rocking horse sh!t but no harm to ask.
The delkevic don't sweep up enough for me.

The Delkevic is stainless iso it could be cut re-angled and welded and polished so you wouldn't see the join if you have a handy welder.

I had a piper on a 650 way back when and when I built my retro custom 650 only using period parts I ended up having to make a piper replica as they are not around. They were fairly scarce 40 years ago compared to Alfa, Lazer etc.
If I were to do it again I would use delkevic headers and build back from there.

Zapo, just checking the picture shows the Piper exhaust you’re looking for ? Not much like a Delkevik to my eye ! The front down pipes / headers tuck in really tight to the frame and enter the collector from a splayed out angle.. Early S+S is closer or some early Yoshi but I think if you want one like in the picture the it has to be Piper ? N.B. Very early Pipers had the 2.5 tail pipe made in 3 straight sections welded together to get the angle …in the advert it’s the later “bent type” which looks a bit smoother. Somebody somewhere will have one !

They where £67 in chrome or £57 painted black, had a brand new one still boxed in me mam’s loft until recently, then me scummy poxy sibling chucked it in a skip

Oh dear
Yes, I brought two back in the day, £75 each ......should have made it three

The Delkevic headers are more like a Kerker but I always thought the thin drainpipe silencer was the characteristic feature of a Piper rather than header angles.

Thanks but I want one at the full original length.

I'd get a new one made in stainless
