    When I bought my Akrapovic (2005 FZ6N) I was disappointed with the sound when the DB-killers were mounted, and without them it was too loud for street use, I then bought a couple of Akrapovic V-TUV019 DB-killers, shortened the internal stingers slightly (due to different internal angle of stinger), and voilà; now I have a very nice deep sound while reducing the noise on the wild side of the rev-range :)

      So you can buy baffles separately to fit inside the exhaust?? I'm buying a bike with them removed and worried about mot test passes later on....

    yea its probably worth leaving the silencer out. Sounds too mean to baffle it. And also, its not that loud of a bike where it would be obvious/obnoxiously loud. Put the silencer in for inspection/emissions and I'd bet you wouldnt have a problem

    How long did it take in real time to install? And what do they cost in Germany? (I live in ridiculous expensive denmark) 😊 great video by the way!

    • @Lumenatic
      @Lumenatic  7 років тому +2

      The first time I disassembled the machine it took about 2 hours. But that was due to my inexperience (first larger "operation'" on my bike). I had to exchange the exhaust after the first installation because it was not welded correctly and the geometry did not fit perfectly (yes, the Akrapovic welders screwed up and I got a replacement part). That second time I installed the exhaust went much faster, perhaps 45 minutes in total.
      The exhaust ist not cheap in Germany, too. I paid 826 Euros, but I guess it is more expensive in Denmarkt as you have higher taxes on everything ?

    I think that my fz6 sound is more powerful than fz6 with e1 0552

    • @timojohn9773
      @timojohn9773 7 років тому +1

      Would you say the sound improved? Those Akras arent the cheapest and I am looking for new Exhausts for my FZ6 RJ07.

    • @Lumenatic
      @Lumenatic  7 років тому +5

      After a year of use I must say I can not recommend the Akra for this bike (I've got a RJ14 btw). At first the geometry was off (welding error) and I was not able to mount it correctly. The exhaust had to be replaced. The sound has not improved significantly (if you leave the dB killer in- if it's out, you've got a monster). And to round the experience off I had some kind of rust or decoloring at the exhaust (yes, stainless steel and still something is happening). I was able to polish it away with Pelox, but it keeps coming back.
      Bottom line: I had expected something better for the price and would advise to buy another brand. A friend of mine has the same bike and the Leo Vince exhaust - much better sound and way cheaper.

    • @Lumenatic
      @Lumenatic  7 років тому +1

      Too loud for the police? No, it is perfectly legal with the silencer in, the exhaust comes with a permit. Too loud for the biker ? I don't understand the question...

    How did you remove the db killer?

    • @Lumenatic
      @Lumenatic  7 років тому

      The dB killer is a pipe with a sleeve, which is fitted into the main exhaust. Remove a little screw beneath the main exhaust and you can pull the dB killer out with pliers. Depending on the tolerances it might require some force. The right hand silencer can be removed easily on my bike, the left one is always pain in the @$$ to be removed and reinstalled.

    Optisch sieht Original deutlich schöner aus ist aber Geschmackssache.

    Nun ohne DB Killer hört sich der Akra Klasse an aber Leider nicht erlaubt.

      Marlon Gordon Sjöberg , you don't have to take the Akrapovic stuff off for inspection. The exhausts come with an operstion permit.
