Default Urgent exhaust help needed

My SK8 needs the exhaust fixed which is a return to factory job (Scorpion Red Power - great exhaust sound, but the hanging bracket is coming away).
I need the bike daily so I'm looking at cheapest solution for getting to work.

If the exhaust goes away for worst case 2 weeks the train fare to work would be at least £176 if I choose the timing carefully (£220 otherwise). So I'm looking at putting the cheapest possible exhaust on the bike but hopefully using the Scorpions link pipe. Clearly I don't want to cut the bike exhaust as I want to put the Scorpion back on when it's repaired.

Ideas?

A Delkevic exhaust is £124 ie £50 less than the train fare. A Soodoo off Amazon is £30, but I suspect that's a can for a scooter (although as long as the waddling stays in for a maximum of 600 miles...)

Any one got any ideas for me??

yes that should work. You might need to make up a short link pipe with clamps at each end from some stainless tube if you want to join an standard SV can to your original downpipes....

Is this of interest? Would need to post it though.

Not looking for any money for it, although you could make a small donation to the forum.

It was getting a wee bit noisy for my liking, I guess the wadding needs replacing, The link pipe looks burnt as I tried to change the angle so it would sit parallel to the bike.

Previously looked like this...
