Believe it or not, after seven years with my Triumph Trophy SE, I finally did my second real modification: I swapped the stock (OEM) exhaust for a Delkevic 8” / 200mm carbon mini. A rider I met on the road told me it was one of the first things he changed on this bike, and he claimed four big improvements—so I went home, did my homework, and decided to test it for myself. In this video I focus on what most of you actually want to know: how it sounds, how loud it is, and whether it’s worth the money compared to OEM. I set a baseline with the Triumph OEM exhaust, revving up around the 5–6k RPM range, then I repeat the same test after the Delkevic install. I also do a road comparison at similar speed and RPM, recording from inside my helmet so you can hear what it’s like in real riding. I don’t do a step-by-step install here because Delkevic already has a solid installation video (I linked it), but I do show what comes in the kit. My takeaway: the Delkevic is clearly different—slightly louder, with a deeper growl and a nicer tone. On top of that, the weight savings are massive (about 5 lbs vs 18 lbs OEM), it looks way better (you can actually see more of the rear wheel), and it feels a bit more “peppy.” For towing my pop-up camper, I’m hoping that extra torque feel turns into real-world benefit.
