Triumph America 865efi and a Rocket 3
Morning all,

Im looking at changing my exhaust on the Rocket, At present I have a straight through decaf system with 3 pipes either side, its loud (doesn't bother me) only issue is im not 100% sold on the look. Any views on Zard, Tors and Dave Platt systems would be appreciated, bear in mind ill be fitting some hard bags (20ltr) only small, photos attached for reference (yeah its on a Harley)
 
There is Viking exhaust and headers by Paul Bryant in NZ. I haven't seen a post by him in a while but I believe he's still at it. He's a master at his craft that's for certain. I was going that direction before I decided on a new 2020 GT.

Cheers mate, it's definitely a choice between Dave and Zard.

Skip Zard (overpriced and not the best), another option is a set of used dual pipe Triumph Roadster TORs luckily for sale in the UK that were fitted to a Classic 2008, so will fit your early series too.
Easy enough to make a bracket adjustment to fit the mounting points if they don't already come with one.
The seller is canny and is listing each separately with different closing times and is then relisting one when it expires so he doesn't sell them both for a low price bidder.
The good thing is he is willing to take offers and is obviously looking for someone to offer him a price for both.

Or these Jardines Big Boss Rumblers, one of the best ever sounding aftermarket Rocket III exhausts!

I also have a renovated set in Black satin ceramic coated inside and out and yet to be refitted. The header collector has been welded to the RHS pipe but the cross pipe and LHS pipe detach as normal. If the RHS exceeds length limits for posting with the collector/header I would need to separate the collector to post.

These are the Model Name for the Rocket III range initially the 2004-2009 version.
“Big Boss” slashcut Rumbler full system
There was a later version for ABS Roadsters and the R3III Touring
All long gone after Jardines taken over by a large corporate that makes and now sells Supertrapp and Kerker branded systems.
Jardine Complete Exhaust System for the Rocket III
The “Big Boss” slashcut Rumbler full system gives the Rocket power and style. The 3:1:2 exhaust features a beautifully crafted header with a Black Ceramic coating.
The Header connects to two balanced and highly polished chrome 3 1/2” x 24” slashcut mufflers. Chromed heatshields are also provided to keep the system looking its best.
NO LONGER AVAILABLE
