I guess for the Akra slip-on's, the short Y-Connector between cans and flapper valve housing is different between 1199/899 Akra parts and 1299 DP Akra parts as the 1299 has a clamp fix on the pipe and the 1199/899 have flange type Connection with three allen screws....

yep,

i'm currently making an adapter to fit the 1299 cans to the 1199 and 899 models. :cool: :cool: :cool:

deutsche Wertarbeit und so...

meaning clamp to triple screw.
 
Guess I'm used my very loud beast with Phil's cored exhaust and Akra TuneBoy tune. This Akra video sounds stock'ish. Not loud or rumbly to me at all. I have to get my bike to a dyno soon and compare hp and torque values to back up my feeling that my bike has tangible gains from the exhaust and tunes. Nice to know I've saved $5k :D.

Why do you want to install the more expensive DP Akra cans for 1299 to a 1199/899? For this usage there is a respective Y-connector available as spare part from Akra. I'm quite sure that the cans are the same from Akra and DP Akra, only the Y-connector to fit to the 1299 flapper valve housing is different with the DP Akra slip-on kit.

I think the best option for 1199 and 1299 is a full Akra anyway...
 
i thought they're all 60mm? aside from that:

i'm not talking about myself, but there will be plenty of peeps trying to fit the "newer" and - as stated by TJ99 - more efficient stock cans of the 1299 (that are similar in flow to the akras) on to the 1199.

i have yet to cut some 1299 cans up, but from what i've seen from the TI 1199 SL stock akra's so far, i will still have to be convinced that it's not just a marketing trick!!!

for sure, there's plenty of reasons to buy akras, but plenty of people will go with a lower price option and buy 2nd hand 1299 stock or Ti cans to put them on their 1199 or 899, since spending north of 3.5 grand won't make you half a second faster. ;)

and louder is easy ...

60mm is for the general main pipes diameter.

You are right, the will be a demand to fit a 1299/1299S OEM System to a 1199/899.

But I think the maximum performance improvement you'll get if you use the entire 1299 system (incl. increase of diameter from 56 to 60mm), not only cans. This should fit mechanically w/o major modifications to a 1199/899.

For the 1299 OEM cans, I assume that the Y-connector is welded to the cans (like for the 1199 OEM cans), no idea if this is easy to change from clamp to flange type connection.

For the OEM Akra cans (with catalyser) from the Panigale R 2015/SL, I don't know if the Y-connector is welded to the cans...

Soo.. we are 100% positive if I head over to carpimoto and purchase the S-D11E1-T full exhaust, it will fit on my 1299s I have coming in March? ?

LOL.. this decision is slightly unnerving
 
The only issue with the stock cans for guys like myself is finding an oil retention pan that you can use for racing. If that is a go, I'm not sure I would spend 3k on Akras either.

Jogy - are you certain it's different? From pics I agree with you but both the UK Akrapovic distributor and Omnia Racing are telling me that the slip on kit is identical for the 1199 and 1299. Want to be sure before ordering!

part true.

WERA allows the "turkey pan fix" and i've seen 1199's with it (weltonrk's)

they check it at tech and you won't see it behind the fairings.

his install looked pretty clean and - it held the oil that was permeating the engine case!!!

Quite sure, if you look on the official Akrapovic site, the part no for 1199/899 is S-D9SO4-T:

Akrapovi?

As you can see on the Image, the Y-connector of the cans will fit only to the flange-type pipe of the 1199/899 OEM System.

Additionally, you dont't see any part listet herer for the 1299...
 
Just had a phone call and yes, you are correct. After our conversation yesterday the distributor went away and did some digging to be sure. They've now been told they are not compatible. Also worthy of note is:-

- Akrapovic and Ducati have an exclusivity deal, will only be available from DP.
- For those with 1199 Akra slips the Y connector will not be sold separately, prepare to buy a new system.
- Price will be approximately £2,600 (UK).

So, for me, that's an £850 hike to purchase a system near identical to the 1199. On principal for the first time in 15 years I'm considering sticking with the stock exhaust.

Anyone know when the Carbon Termi's will be available for the 1299?!
 
Go for a full Akra System S-D11E1-T fitting the 1199 (what you'll get almost for the same price as the DP Akra cans), this will also fit to the 1299 (and is obviously the same as the full Akra DP System for 1299), it only comes w/o up-map-stick, so you need to get an apropiate map via tuneboy for e.g.

buy the DP set-up....most money, but least hassle, done correctly from the start, no dyno voo-doo :)..... means more riding time
 
Alas, I've been told by my dealer here in CA that they can't supply the Akra exhaust because of CA emissions BS... d'oh. And if the exhaust is only available through DP, going to have to order from an out of state dealer. So irritating.

Or save the $5K, buy BSTs. Thinking plan B will have a greater impact, and save $1K.
 
Too hard to get hold of the DP Akra ATM .. thus staying with the Termi' ..
