Akrapovic install (and comparisons with Termi Full)

Thanks for the response.

Looks like I'm going to have to see and hear one to be compelled to go smaller, but lighter for $2000.

I appreciate the feedback guys. It is a very nice system.

If you look at the front of this thread there's some decent photos to explain. Although the Akra diameter is smaller there is a point where the Termi end can design and size require the pipe to be flatened to allow it all to fit on the bike which looks to me like a major restriction. The Akra doesn't as it has smaller end cans and slightly smaller diameter pipe as you say, but this is uninterrupted without any flat spot/restriction.

Sure it gets hot. But not enough to bother me (UK temperatures though) even in summer (23-28 deg.C).

Since I started this thread, here's my 2 cent after my first ride today (finally!!)

- Much louder. Each rev is like thunder. Night and day compared to the Termi's. Every downshift is a BARK. Every redline upshift is a loud POP with flames.
- Running the same full Termi upmap with no problems. Haven't ridden her for 4 months so my butt dyno isn't accurate. But thoughts are it seemed torquier.
- Appearance...it's starting to turn purple from the heat. Looks amazing.
- Heat...noticeably hotter around the right inner ankle without boots on. With boots, it doesn't matter. But definitely hotter.

But again...that sound.....WOW. I had my buddy riding his Speed Triple next to me and he couldn't help but just giggle and laugh....the sound.....it's ridiculous......
