Do you like the sound of the H2B/C Delkevics? Reason I ask is I'm also considering a set but I saw some comments on a Suzuki 2-stroke forum where a member bought a set for a GT750 and was disappointed in the sound. He also reported that he compared the weight of his Delkevics with the originals and found them each weighing 2 pounds less. Further comments were that he suspected the weight difference suggests something might be lacking or incomplete about the Delkevic baffling causing the different exhaust note which was also louder he said. I'm hoping this is not the case with their Kawasaki system.

Delkevics for GT750 Suzukis are manufactured without the sound-deadening packing in the header pipes that the OEM pipes had.
Subsequently they sound a bit 'tinny' - more like spannies than the deeper, burblier sound the stockers had...
It's possible the Delkevics for H2s are the same (if indeed the stock H2 pipes had packing) - I'll let you know when I get mine on the road!
