After having a lot of people asking about cheaper exhausts, I decided to try something other than a Yoshimura on this project bike, and went with the 8" Delkevic Carbon Full System. While it's defintely not as high quality, it's not a bad system overall. All the fitment was spot on, all pieces were included, along with new exhaust gaskets. The one thing I will forewarn about, is the Bazzaz AFM shows the bike running extremely lean under certain conditions at stock fueling, unlike the Yoshimura Alpha that I run on the Z650. So, if you ever consider installing this cheaper system, you best intend on putting forth the extra money for a fuel controller, or you could possibly regret it in the long run. I'll post up a video in the coming week of adjusting all the fuel settings, where it started, and where it's at now for AFR's, but until then, here is a fairly detailed install video of the system on this 2009 Ninja 650.

Would love to see your timing Fuel / timing maps, running Delkevic full SS w/14” stubby oval (baffle removed), pair delete, PC6 (w/autotune) on my ‘07. Low rpm is a nice deep note (seems like longer can=deeper), high sounds great too 👍. Appreciate your vids.

One important thing the OP fails to mention is the airbox was modded prior to the exhaust installation. If you check out his videos you see the airbox mod was done first. The exhaust itself is not known to make lean A/F ratios.

That’s a good point. Forgot to mention I removed the snorkels / added filter but didn’t cut or drill the box like I believe he did. Without the PC it pops a lot and has just a little hesitation off idle (slow maneuvering) that’s with air changes. Adding fuel with PC corrected both (though I kept a pop tune on map2). Adding AT (single channel) smoothed everything out. Also the AT o2 sensor is a direct fit to the Delkevic bung. Quality/fitment of the Dekevic SS system is quite good, bolts up easy, can is well made. They actually respond if you have questions too. I like the look and get a lot of comments now. Great deal (under 400$) for the full SS system especially for a daily or project, would def buy again. Still looking for timing info (how much is safe to add) from anyone that’s added timing on the 650.
