I there anyone out there still making monty exhausts i have a two into one on mine one of Mike Waughs fancy a std set?
 
As far as I'm aware Sito didn't make chrome F500 systems. I've ordered the occasional new Sito exhaust system on behalf of customers, they're expensive [about the same as a Laverda Corse system] The problem with the original system is your bike will be unwelcome at just about any parade, track day or race you care to mention nowadays, with the possible exception of Spa.
I've just fitted a new style 2 into 1 from Laverda Corse, this is a neat system because it can be configured as a 2 into 1 or a 2 into 2 . If you want to convert to a 2 into 2 from a 2 into 1 just fit the relevant collector box and optional second silencer.
I'm currently preparing my bike for the hillclimb championship and have opted for the 2 into 1 [more midrange ]. Sounds lovely! These systems are 105bd compliant and work just as efficiently as the standard system without creating excessive noise.

I've got a few people interested in systems at the moment and will probably be putting in an order to Italy quite soon. If anybody wants one please let me know, there may be an opportunity to save money on the shipping.

Here's my bike with the 2 into 1 fitted

Hi Bob,
Just about finished the monty I bought from Mike Anersly it's fitted with a 2 into 1 that came from Mike Waugh also came with a std monty system except it's chrome never seen one before!! looks to be original, are the S1 cams being remade?
 
Hi John,
I'm, looking forward to seeing your bike when its done, if it's up to your usual standard I'm sure it'll be a treat. Did you go for the Speciale treatment or have you played safe?
I've never seen a chrome Sito system, I would image somebody had it chromed after the fact, I would imagine it looks quite smart!

Hi Bob,
I decided to keep it speciali all the original paintwork came up ok  not to my taste I am an orange man at heart but with the history file that came with it I guess it's the right thing to do,(might get an orange set as well!!) even got the guarantee card from Slaters I found my f500 a little tight with the clip on's and the seat yeah that bloody seat!!!! I wont forget that in a hurry I hope this bike will be a little more forgiving time will tell, the can on Mike Waugh's      2 into one hangs out at a sharpish angle but is well made I  might get used to it I will put a pic or two up when it's done.
Best John.
 
Hi Phil,

cheers john
 
Hi John,
I've currently have Andy Jessop (Monty)? in my garage,which has a chromed exhurst.The bike originates from Spain.Its the second Monty(?) from Europe I've seen over (many) a year with the exhurst chromed and not black.
I wonder whether your bike was 1st bought outside of UK?

All the best ,
Andy
 
Hi Andy,
good to hear from you,
no this one came from Slaters I have all the paperwork from the sale Richard had the one off paintwork done (speciali) I will have a chat to him  I am calling in to see him next week,
it's the 40th anniversary of the first 1000 triple to be sold in the UK  my drum braker no.145 I have some nice mag articles from the time, Kawasaki made a big thing of the Z1 40th I thought it might be an idea to give our mark a bit of publicity 40 years old still on the road and going strong well strongish!!! they did a road test with the 1000 and the Z1 the Lav did well Roger Slater Dave Minton and Ted Dexter were there interesting reading.
Hope to see you soon best John.      
 
Hi Bob (and other),

The exhaust system on my Alpino has finally given up and I'm looking for replacement. I know the Laverda Corse system is ment for racing but will it work on an Alpino? 105 dB is obviously louder than the original Lafranconi and some neighbors are more sensitive than others but is it out the question to use it on a roadgoing bike under "normal circumstances"?

If you find that the Laverda Corse system is not suited for a roadgoing bike, are there any alternatives other than having the downpipes manufactured as on-offs and find suitable muflers (any recommandations)?
