Scrapper's 1299 S - Let the Mods Begin!

Not sure why the photos shows the longer spacer but i was at the ducati dealer today i saw a 1199 there with a 1199 full Akrapovics there and we compared the two and its clearly visible that the 1299 loop is longer and looks larger in diameter although we didnt take calipers to it.

From annother image Raaseri postet here from his 1299S with DP full Akra, you can also see the longer siver spacers, and the heatshield looks as the pipe loop not different to me compared to the full Akra for 1199, both should have 60 mm in diameter. Maybe you can measure the loop pipe diameter of your 1299 DP full Akra....

Yes that is my bike, pipe and picture. It is DP Akra for 1299/s and it has silver spacers. I'll measure it late today, let you know then.

The only reason for the two long aluminium rear spacers and the strangely formed heatshield at that location is to allow installation of passenger footpegs. SL heatshield is directly attached to the subframe without spacers at all, and only with the two front screws.

Don't know why they don't offer the option of the carbon shroud in ;-
a, matte finish to match the rest of the dp stuff.
b, with no possibility of passie footrests. Most folk will know from day one if they ever
intend to fit them.

Does the heat still pass through the carbon/shield? Or is the heat felt by the rider coming from around the outside of the shield.

In other words, would lining the shield with some of that heat tape eliminate some of the heat?

(like we put on the inside of gas tanks to keep race fuel cool, or inside bodywork to keep the heat from the larger full exhausts off the race lower)

When I fitted the Akra system to my 1199, I added a silver foil lined heat shield backing to the carbon heat shield. The standard carbon comes with a very thin foil lining already and I added a thicker layer of the top of that.

Result: no detectable difference in heat on the leg. It still gets hot. I posted pics last year of it all. Maybe it may have been a little worse if I had not done it. who knows.

All 60mm tubes.

don't worry.

you won't commute on it in summer traffic standstill and on the track just roll out slow at 3rd call and you'll be fine. anything over 40 mph makes the heat (what heat?) disappear.

Thanks, so we can be almost 100% sure that the DP full Akra for 1299 is really the same as full Akra for 1199/899: Both 60 mm in Diameter and shapewhise it also looks the same.

That the 1199 full Akra also fits to the 1299 was written by SPJ today already:

I knew that Ducati logo on the Akrapovics would come in handy. I was leaving the store when the police pulled up as I started my bike he got startled and about jumped out of his shoes when I started my bike. He approached me and told me to cutoff the engine. He said " Is that an aftermarket exhaust? you know in 2013 the law changed for motorcycles exhaust and the noise requirement bla bla bla" Im thinking here comes a ticket but he looked down at the mufflers and saw the "Ducati" Performance and said never mind I see its stock and he asked me if I modified the mufflers and I told the truth and said No this thing is less than a week old I don't even have my plates yet why would I do that? He said OK and by the way thats a nice bike I said thanks and he went into the store. Funny

True, good point.

I like to go out at the last second anyway to make sure I don't lose too much heat in my tires. Ideally I will leave my pit, roll out to hot-pit and immediately into my warm up lap.

Added some carbon and CNC Stuff on the rear. I Didn't put the AFAM QC carrier and sprockets or DID chain on until i wear out the OEM stuff. Thanks to the guys at Bellissimoto, Motovation USA and Shift-tech. I also added the DP Carbon Contrails and key guard. Its coming along

ScrapperX · May 11, 2015

I added some more stuff this weekend at my buddy's shop. I added the DP Carbon Stator and Clutch covers, Progrips 717, CNC Racing Gas Cap and Ducati Carbon key guard, conveyors. The bike gets better each time I ride it.

RE full Akropoovic system?

Where can you get the FULL system for $3300,00?

PaulB · May 14, 2015

Does the standard heat shield fit the Akra pipe or does this pipe have a different routing? Thinking of ordering the pipe for my new bike but don't like the "mini skirt" look and shine of the Akra shield.

Looking good.

Looks like someone should get it on our Upper Triple Group Buy!!!
