‘TWO IN ONE’ ELEGANCE FOR JAPANESE TWO-CYLINDER CUSTOM BIKES

Passion, freedom and style. That is what epitomizes the picturesque world of custom bikes, which is always true to itself but is absolutely always evolving. Among the new trends is the “two in one” exhaust system on two-cylinder Japanese motorcycles, which in the past tended to use other methods.

Right on cue comes the answer from SilverTail – the division of the SITO/LeoVince group specializing in the world of custom – with the launch of the CE marked Blackjack product line created precisely for the Rising Sun “twins”.

This is a product that aims expressly for elegance. Both the manifolds and the silencing body—which is fitted with dB killer—are made from AISI 304 stainless steel.

The manifolds cannot be seen, as they are completely enclosed in a chromium-plated steel casing that has a simple and streamlined design, rounded off with a rear casing in the same material.

As it is separate from the “working” areas of the system that are in contact with hot gases, the casing in the manifold area does not with the passage of time take on that blue color typical of traditional exhausts, which is thing that spoils the refined look of these motorcycles.

Marketing of the product will start next spring with the product group for the Yamaha Midnight Star 1300, which will gradually be joined by other models.
