Came across a pair of Ducati silencers for 851/888,but the pipe is much larger diameter than the original Y piece.Any chance of obtaining the correct size Y piece 50mm?

Looks like SP silencers........could be quite expensive to get the headers as well! You could always take them to your local metal bashers, so long as they do nice stainless ductwork they might be able to modify them.

You`re right they`re SP ones like I have on mine,bit like hens teeth are they(Que someone saying "I`ve got a set in the shed").

Aka Eric, bit of a nightmare finding trick bits for these old buses now,looking back god I was lucky stumberling on the bits for mine!

Try this for some trick headers

Hi Aka.eric

If you find you need to offload those SP cans after all, just let me know. If they're nice ones, I could be persuaded to take 'em off your hands!

Me too!!

I knew I should have broken mine instead of selling it whole.

I could loan you some headers (SP2) for the metal basher to copy from (if that's the route you have to go down) - but you can't have em for love nor money !!!

[aka.eric]

Thanks for the explanation.Sods Law I suppose,thought they would fit to system.Probably not a good idea to cut them to fit!.The standard headers are common enough arent they?.Wasnt sure what they were off,right shape for 888/851,Ducati part but a straight through silencer.I can see the difference now against the cans that came on the bike.

They're the cans that came with the SP4/5 bikes. Made by Termignoni, but not stamped. Here's a pic.

Hmmm , They look very like the carbon cans fitted to my bike (an 851 with an 888 motor ) will have to slip one off and measure up .
