Honda ST1300 Delkevic 13" Exhaust to 18" inch Delkevic Exhaust How to replace Before After Overview

- I decided to "upgrade" my Delkevic 13-inch pipes with Delkevic 18" pipes. Mostly because it's a little noisy for the wife when we travel together. Otherwise, I LOVED the 13" pipes. The 18" do match the length of side bags better too.

Love her... and still hope you own her !!!!! .....These bikes are simply amazing !
Hey, thanks for watching, 👍👍. I do still LOVE my ST. I'm thinking of shipping it to Germany this summer and riding it thru Austria to Italy.
I have the 18-inch exhaust and it's the perfect rumble sound but just right and not too loud. No more sewing machine exhaust.
Hello from Russia, Mike! Good luck on the road!)
Thank you for watching from all the way from Russia 🙋🏻♂️ I wish you the best of luck on the exhaust system you installed on your bike. Have a great week 🤙🏍️
Love the look of this bike the stickers en stuff great looking bike man 👊🏼
Hello Eddie 🤙🙋♂️. Thank you for watching and thank for the complements. Have a great weekend ❤️🤙🏍️
Every inch counts, I would definitely go with the 18 inches 😊
I think so too! 🤙🏍️

Thank you so much and thank you for watching.🤙🏍️

Good job, Mike.
Good on ya, Mike!
Clean machine ...well done!
Thank you for watching🙋🏻♂️. My ST is my pride and joy and almost my "misSTress", LOL. Have a great weekend ❤️🤙🏍️
I installed a set of the 18” Delkevics last year on my 06 and ran into the same issue with head pipe clamps being to small. I reached out to them and they sent the correct clamps promptly. Like the sound and I still run the baffles.
Hello and thank you for watching 🙋♂️. I thought I was doing something wrong, then realized that they are just the wrong clamps. I'm glad that you were able to get the correct clamps. I'm going to contact them too. I just got back from a long motorbike road trip thru Canada. I sure to like the 18" more than the 13". I left the baffles in too and really like the tone. Have a great weekend. 🤙🏍️
Very nice, thanks.
Hope you make a video on all your Auxilary lights on your bike andhow installed??? Thanks in advance.
Hello and thank you for watching 🙋♂️. Odd that you bring that up,, I was thinking the same thing that I "should" have made a video on the rear LED bulbs and LED strips. Did you happened to notice that I do have a HOW TO video for the front? The front is a pain in the ass especially the little 194 peanut bulbs.
Here is the link for the front if interested: ruclips.net/video/rorWDa1d8I0/видео.htmlsi=qmeHEOo_gSnATtro
Let me know if you need the Amazon LINKS for all the LED bulbs?
Have a great week ❤️🤙🏍️
I replaced my 9” ovals with 18” ovals on my zx14r. Depending on my mood I can go loud again.
That's a big step from 9" to 18". The baffles should come out in less than a minute on the 18". Give it a try see if you like the louder grumbles. Thank you for watching. 🤙🏍️
@@MotoTouringWorldWideI have never removed baffles in any mufflers on any of my bikes in 32+ years of riding. I do however always remove the DB KILLERS if the exhaust comes with them.
@@turboboy0 ,, I kept baffles in on my 18-in exhaust. It sounds great. By the way, your zx1400r is a gorgeous bike. They sound better too 🤙🏍️
the 18" oval del's used to come with the shorty baffles. If you wish, you can replace the with the newer long style baffles,,, which are a couple of db quieter. I did this after losing one of my original shorty baffles,, and I prefer it. Might not be worth the cost to someone who still has both originals though. I am just saying,,, that they are available. thx, for the video !!
Thank you for that information 🤙🏍️. I learn something new every day. Have a great week. 🏍️
Thanks for the video! Exhaust looks & sounds great! Unrelated question, what mount was that between your handlebars? How/where exactly was it attached? Thx
@@alpine80s hello and thank you for watching 🙋♂️. I have been asked this question before and I helped out a friend of mine. Helibar makes the center aluminum riser. If you're lucky you will find one with the ball mount AND the BMW 12 volt socket power type outlet.
Last year when I was searching the Heli bar for sale had only the ball mount. Maybe you can find one used with both Mount and power port.
Thanks again for watching 🤙🏍️
Bike sounds good....question...the tank pads, where did you source them as I have been looking everywhere with no luck?
Hello Robert. Thank you for watching. Good eye for noticing my tank pads. The side pads did come on the ST when I bought it 5 years ago, but the middle one I bought from Amazon. I got it for only $0.99 cents... I went on Amazon and I found it but I like this one better for $10 cuz of the carbon fiber look. Meanwhile I'll see if I can find the side padding for you. Here's the link for the center pad while I try to locate the side ones. Have a great week ❤️🤙🏍️

Look great! I just installed 17” Delkevic exhaust Tri-Oval muffler on 2005 ST1300. Your red adjustable handler bar level look cool! What brand of Handlerbar lever? I check on google but they have many brands of handlebar lever.. I live in Washington state..
Hello Stephen 🙋🏻♂️, thank you for watching, hope you like your new exhaust, definitely is music to the ears. On my clutch and brake lever ,, the company is MZS Tuning. Would you happen to be anywhere near Seattle. I can show you the levers. I am not 100% satisfied with MZS.. I have some time off and I need an excuse to ride, especially around Alki Beach or towards Port orchard Bremerton area anywhere around the Puget sound, 🤙🏍️
How are those lights working on your side bags? 🤔🤔🤔 Nevermind...Ive found it. :)
I purchased the LED light strip from Amazon, also 4-pin plugs for EZ disconnect and reconnect when I take the side bags off. Let me know if you need the Amazon links. 🤙🏍️
Nice! Also - where and how did you get those lights on the bags? Those look good!
Hello and thank you for watching, I purchased those LED strips from Amazon. I have a universal connector behind the bags so I can easily disconnect when needed. You will find many choices on Amazon and the wiring is pretty simple because it will connect to power and Park lights and ground under the rear passenger seat. Have a great weekend 🤙🏍️
@@MotoTouringWorldWide I forgot to ask. Did you wrap your exhaust headers as well?
@@MotoTouringWorldWide One more HUGE favor please. If I were to install the longer Delkevic mufflers like you did, would you be able to tell me, based on the measurements, if it would interfere with the below luggage guards from T-rex?
(I have the PA version of the ST, so installing the luggage guards is something I would like to do on mine.)
(ruclips.net/video/6Y5fVfgpBgc/видео.html)
@@Forward_Unto_Dawn , no I have not wrapped the exhaust. I think I might do in the future but I haven't found it to be very important for me yet. 🤙🏍️
Do they scrape when you do wheelies?
LOL 😅, I haven't tried yet, but since the Delkevics are not longer than the stock exhaust, so I don't think the Delkevics will scrape. Thanks for watching 🤙🤙🏍🏍
How would you compare these 18" to the 13"...? Lower, more bass...? And a bit quieter...??
I love the look of the tips of the short tri ovals, but the longer muffler sound might be better for me...
Hello and thank you for watching 🙋♂️. I had the 13-inch for 5 years then last summer I installed the 18-inch. The 18-in has a lower tone and grunt with a nice gurgle. I have not removed the baffles yet to see how much louder they are. But I definitely prefer them over the 13-inch especially if my wife is on back because it was too noisy with the 13-inch. 🤙🏍️
Good luck
@@MotoTouringWorldWide What did put do with the 13s...? You probably sold them already is my guess...
@@nedmilburn ,, Yes 😊,, I sold the 13-inch ones in less than 2 days here locally in Seattle. The guy put them on his Police ST1300 and rode back to Bellingham all happy.
What year is your bike? Have u had any issues with it or know of any?
Hello and thank you for watching. My bike is a 2007 with ABS. These bikes are pretty bullet proof. I've had mine now for 5 years with NO issues,, (knock on wood). Just change the oil and other fluids and you'll have a reliable bike. On my other videos I take the bike on the track, ride it hard sometimes, but I baby the bike too, I over detail and clean ever inch of the bike, I think the Honda ST likes me back. Have a great weekend. 🤙🏍️
@@MotoTouringWorldWide Sounds great! I asked because I'm thinking of buying an 09 that used to be a police bike. But it only has 18k miles. Thank u for the info. Take care!
@@MightyMouzMoto , the 09 is a great year. However, I've seen and touched the police bikes and I'm not a big fan because of the modification to the rear seat area. I know 2 police bike owners and they both have spent time and money to get the rear seat back to factory specs. Plus the switches are weird with blanks on the right side of the handlebars. I did see a 2009 for sale the other day with very low miles. I'll see if I can find it and I"ll send you the link. 🤙🤙🏍🏍
I think the stock exhaust suits the Pan, looks and sound. Aftermarket exhausts on big mile tourers never make sense to me
I felt the same way also. However I have to admit the 18 inch is very comfortable, the 13-in ones were just too annoying and too noisy. This 18 inch is the perfect balance of exhaust tone. After all,,, ST does stand for "Sport Touring". Sportiness in style. 🤙🏍️
Do you still have your old delkevic?
Hello and thank you for watching. I sold the 13" a couple of weeks ago. Thank again and have a great week. 🤙🏍️
Hi Michael! Just saw this and wanted to say that I also have the 18” Delkevic Ovals and LOVE THEM!
Nice throaty rumble at idle but so quiet while riding.
Good choice sir!
👍🏍️❤️
