@@alexv5581Honestly just a slip on on this bike is ENOUGH, compared to my 390 I used to have it was so quiet with just a slip on still. This engine is much different just enough grunt to be heard is really what matters.
Agree, I bought a 1290 SAS, and it had an Arrow exhaust without a DB killer. Every morning, I felt embarrassed to start it up because of the noise. The first thing I bought for it was a DB killer, and now I think it’s perfect. The exhaust looks nice and sleek compared to the original, and it has a slightly bassy sound that doesn’t bother people around.
Can you appreciate a huge difference between the akra and the original one? Since the catalyzer is not removed, does it make a differente changing the silencer?
Well, I suppose removing The cat and keeping the original silencer would also be an option. But for me the baffle and deep noise are absolutely perfect. It does make A hughe difference, especially without the db-killer
@@mauriciosolis8926 For me the sound without the DB-killer is already loud and deep enough. I think i would have done it more for the smoother engine and mapping, as well as for the weight reduction. But in terms of sound, it is already great!
@@mauriciosolis8926 Hey maybe a little late response, but I have the same exhaust but with cat deleted and akra mapping. Without the cat it gets a lot louder too and in combination with the akra mapping it also runs a little smoother and gives more hp. In my opinion you are better off with the decat and leave de db killer. The cops are also more likely to give you a ticket if they see you riding without the db killer.
@@elmotor8587 how did you know where to do it? is there a guide for this specific akra exhaust somewhere you can link? or do you mind showing it in a video/short
Vind het zelf jammer van het geld voor dat beetje verschil. Als je gelijk de cat verwijdert dan heb je pas verschil. Helaas ook weer gezeik, net als bij verwijderen db killer.
Man, with the cat still there it sounds so tame. My 790 R just had the cat removed and it sounds like a monster.
Update. The Akra went in today.
Good luck when you need hearing aid by the time you are 35 lol
Nobody thinks you're cool. Sometimes a chill ride without attention is the best.

The best bike to see duke 790 in the world
R1: baby you're so cute😃

sigo esperando el sonido......
Why go with Akrapovic over SC Project S1? The Akra slip on is so expensive.. was it because of the map you can get from the dealer?
There’s no map from the dealer
At that point I got a good deal from the dealer. But now with other bikes I prefer other Brands and do my research first :-)
ik heb net een 790 duke met akra gekocht, zonder db killer, kan ik deze wel terug plaatsen of is dat niet meer mogelijk?
I believe this is not the stock seat right? Is it more comfortable?
No it is the powerparts seat. Works great! But is in my opinion a bit taller.
Bro how did u remove the db killer?
By tapping out the welded part, you can see from the inside of the db killer. There are some toturials on YT
@@elmotor8587 can u send me the link of that yt video? Tnx in advance
@@roelguadiz4990 just search it by yourself 😂
Hoe heb je deze verwijderd ? heb net dezelfde maar vind het geluid met DB-killer tegenvallen.
Je kunt een klein gaatje boren precies waar de db-killer is gelast. Check even op UA-cam, staan diverse video’s over online.
U need to decat it bro!
Do you recommend this mirrors setup that you have?
Yes defenitely! At first you need to get used to the lower setup. But only takes a couple of weeks to adapt to
Lekker geluidje man! Heb je hem nog?
Zeker!
ELMOTOR inmiddels heb ik m ook 🙈 check mn insta: bbmotolife
Does it have the cat?
Yes it still has the normal kat
@@elmotor8587 i have the same slip on and the same duke. Do you recommend me to delete the catalizer or only eliminate the db killer?
@@mauriciosolis8926 For me the sound without the DB-killer is already loud and deep enough. I think i would have done it more for the smoother engine and mapping, as well as for the weight reduction. But in terms of sound, it is already great!
@@elmotor8587 Thanks a lot. I'm looking for sound improve. I'll delete the DB killer asap

How did u do this?
Just cut a tiny hole right at the welded spot. First through the carbon cap, then the titanium.

Sounds like V4
Is die lc8c blok een beetje betrouwbaar geen lekkages of gekke dingetjes gehad?
Nergens last van gehad! Er zijn wel anderen die wat lekkages hadden.

I will prefer 10r over this
Motorcycles are much more than spec sheets.
