FINALLY got the new 1199 Akra system on my bike today!!

I finally got her in there. I gotta say... it made a huge improvent...and I had already thought that this bike stock had significantly more power than my 1199 with Termis.. and after the Akra.. she came alive!! and it has even been tuned yet! lol

Nice bike.

Nice rims !!!

15rwhp? Lol we're talkin about a bike here, not a car. If anything, maybe in the midrange if the "dip" still exists.

Sexy slow. How long did the install take? Hours I mean lol

Come down here and I'll help you install it.

Great job, when I get my 1299S, I'll also install my 1199 full Akra to it.

Didn't you get a CEL running it with stock mapping w/o the flapper valve servo installed?

Put about 40 miles on it. No CEL light

That's nice, I loved my Akra EVO.

What wheels are those?

This has to be the most frequently asked question on this forum. Perhaps a sticky from the mods with the answer.

Maybe so, but exactly what is the answer?

I have asked "does the upmap do anything but alter the Air/Fuel ratio for the new exhaust, or does it clear codes also?" in at least 3 different threads, on more than one occasion, and have yet to get an answer.

I want to know if the upmap is required to clear codes, or if it just alters the A/F ratio. If it doesn't clear codes, then I will get the exhaust from my sponsor and then get a tuner and custom dyno tune to sort out the A/F.

Marchesini Wheels - M10RS Corse

or maybe the M10RS Corse Moto3 version.

I know you are new to the forum and would not have seen the many times this has been answered.

1. If you disconnect the cable from the flapper valve on a std exh you do not get any code on the dash. FACT

2. If you then take that bike to the dealer and he attaches his diagnostic thing to your bike and you do not have the cable attached, the diagnostic thing(computer whatever) will tell the mechanic the cable is not connected, in other words indicate a fault. The mechanic will happily reconnect the cable for you. This happened to me and I happily undid it again when I got home.
3. If you buy an Akra Evo system for your bike and you remove the OEM system which removes the flapper valve and you remove the servo motor which pulls the cable, you still will not get any error code on the dash. FACT. If you then take your bike down to the dealer and he puts on his diagnostic widget/computer whatever he will see a code on the device. He will also see you have no flapper valve as you have a new system on it.

I do not know what up map you refer to. No up map comes with an aftermarket non Ducati Products supplied Akra.

I understand that the DP Akra accessory exhaust for the new 1299 and 1199R comes with an up map key like the old Termi slip ons and full system. Once you attached the up map key the dash would show Racing or Racing Evo at start up if memory serves correct. I never had one of those as I waited for the Akra to come out. I hope I have answered maybe some of your question. I know not all of it.

cheers

That's pretty impressive. Did you do any tuning once the exhaust was installed? Do you happen to have a graph from your dyno run?
