I wasn't going to subscribe until I heard that chime like 6 times and realized I need more of that in my life.
Honestly, I preferred it with the OEM baffles out.
Cotswold Pirate well let’s wait to hear it with the akra baffles out and I’ll mix some sound comparisons up in another video demonstrating all 4 combos.
William Hutchinson around 4lbs. Not worth it.
@@ABIKETHING How do you remove the OEM baffles? Is it a simple grub screw and plier job?
On my 1250 I took the akrapovic from factory. I love its new shape and the sound is perfect.
I just love the GSA I even go in the garage just to look at mine. I might get some lights from you when I eventually get the 1250. Nice vids I recently subscribed
Buddy's Insight thanks Buddy. Look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Just found your Chanel and loving you’re content ! I’m fellow GS rider and I will be looking at some lights for my beast 👍
TJ thanks for the message. It’s appreciated
Your welcome I have emailed you guys for idea of fitting my bike 👍
Akra black...from far the nicest exhaust for the GS :-)
Hi
Can you share a link for the rear 6 led lights. I like them.
Love your videos! Question, I have a 2023 BMW GSA and just purchased a Akrapovic Titanium slip on. It did not come with any anti sieze paste in the packaging. Do I need this? If I do, what type do you recommend? And how should I apply it? There is nothing about it in the instruction manual.
Ive got the BMW Akro (similar style to yours, but not black) on my 1250 GSA HP. Love the look, but even with baffles in (cant remove them), its much louder when at cruising speed, even with ultimate ears in. So I’d recommend you ride the bike some, before you decide to take the baffles out.
I also hope to get some D4’s from you, at some point, but still removing from Christmas! 😳😉
Paul yes that’s my intention however a buddy of mine has the same silencer too with the baffles out. Sounds great. I’ll video the removal and post here soon.
The Akra sounds best with the baffles out in my view.
The only thing I disliked was the initial low rpm sound on Akra’s. They sound like wheezy/sneezy or something until the rpm builds.
I came close to buying an Akra but ended up fitting a SC Project to my r1250gs a couple of weeks ago after hearing one as the initial sound was crisper in my view.
Cheers.
Ian S agreed. There’ll be a part 2 with my mate taken the baffles out and doing another sound comparison
Post a video
What about baffles out akra??? Are they easy to remove??
I prefer a quieter exhaust. I don’t like to draw any attention to myself as I like to ride over the speed limit quite often. The akropovic with the baffles would be my preference over the OEM without baffles.
What Martin said. I also prefer quiet pipes. I am going to go and check them out. It is now 2022. Do you have any comments on your experience so far?
fantastic video but could do with the bell taking down a couple of decimals on reminding you to subscribe . it is loud lol
Mark Vickers noted! New video going up in the next 24/48 hours so I’ll watch that. It’s a self recorded bell from my coffee machine 😂
OEM is actually better IMO. I test rode to buy a 2015 w/ Akr exhaust and then a 2016 OEM. I preferred the latter. YMMV, but I do wonder about OEM sans baffle...
Akrapovic ❤
OEM definitely
Hi. I emailed you recently and I have now subscribed. Working my way through the videos, I'll get in touch when I've decided what to have. Enjoying the Channel.
Phil Butler thanks! Another new video about to go live too.
I have 1200 gsa 2014, does the exhaust system headers increases horsepower noticeably, i appreciate ur feed back be4 i do it.
in effect you won't get anything, you can feel a small difference in the throttle response when accelerating (the sound adds a little more to all this) on my HP is the original variant for 2014 ...
IN BRIEF WASTE OF MONEY ....
I’ve always loved akrapovic quality and sound but I just don’t understand how they can charge so much for these exhausts! I’ve got an S1000 XR and the can is nearly £1000 and you can’t even remove the baffle on the Euro4 compliant version! At least it was a nice easy change and moderate weight saving!
Hi, you can remove the baffles but you need the right tools or in my case a friend with the right tools. Part 2 video coming soon showing the baffle removal and another sound comparison.
Should have fitted the euro 3 version, the baffles are removable.
Derek Macdonald no bother. I’m taking them out next week. Will video a “how to on euro 4”
How did you get the baffles out from the OEM?
Flaming T a special friend with some tools that I don’t possess. I’ll be getting him in part 2 of this akra video when he de baffles the new can.
Do you have the akrapovic headers fitted aswell?
I would love to hear the Akrapovic with baffles removed! I might do the same on mine.
bodyman909 that video will be live in a couple of weeks.
OEM 100%
Bought a Remus for my 1200, apart from the sound improvement it was a waste of money, on a long trip the noise became an annoyance. I’ve left my 1250 standard...I think the OEM exhaust sounds better than that on the 1200.
Chukky aka Ian well I ride with a friend who has a euro 3 akra on his bike and I’ve done 3500 miles on a road trip with him. I’ve always preferred the sound of his and his baffles are out.
Original. By far.
Akra is great but has to be repacked every 6000 miles - failure to do this leaves it very noisy and running hot - bike will be pinking like hell on both 95 and 98 octane fuel - had this on a 1200 and now on the 1250 - repacking kit is £50 a pop - 20k miles a year and it soon mounts up! Just about to reinstall original which has metal baffles as opposed to fibreglass packing (hence the weight difference) and is maintenance free!
Wow! This is news to me
OEM sounds for me better, but there is another exhaust from BOS
Is it just me or do they sound the same?
invisiblekid69 check the new video just posted today. No they’re very different. Microphones........no matter how much I spend on audio equipment it’s hard to grasp the true sound and tone
A BIKE THING yeah I checked that out before this one and commented there too haha flybys!
Wrong choice, Ak low tone noise will make you tired so quickly. Painful when you doing long distance ride.
Its akrapoviç with ch sound at the end!!!
This just saved me $1200
A Bike thing, do you have decated headers or have you gutted the originals.
Eric Stephenson I gutted the originals
@@ABIKETHING no problems with back pressure popping ect?
Eric Stephenson I wouldn’t say it’s a problem. More noticeable when engine is cold and sounds v nice. Once warmed up the popping stops
@@ABIKETHING thanks for the info, I have the rallye te sounds to sanitized compared to my previous twin cam.
Was it your mate that decated the headers aswell?
In effect you won't get anything, you can feel a small difference in the throttle response when accelerating (the sound adds a little more to all this) on my HP is the original variant for 2014 ...
IN BRIEF WASTE OF MONEY ....
A waste of money really , I had the same Akro on my 2017 R1200 triple black
Not a lot of difference in the sound and I didn’t find any difference in power , £900 for designer slip on silencer is a bit expensive in my book , when I took it off last year and put the OEM back on as I was changing to a 1250 I thought it ran better
stuart clark that’s disappointing. Did you run it with the baffles or without?
Yes baffles in and out , sounded slightly deeper but annoying on long runs , I’ve still got it , might try it on my 1250
I don’t know why people waste so much money on aftermarket exhaust or ruin the stock exhaust. To each their own.
Oem baffles out
In the video OEM sounds better.
why I like oem sound？ahahaha
You look like you have Ben wind tunnel tested
Genuine Comments not sure what you mean by that but ok 👌
at £900 you can keep it not worth it you can get a £67 cheap thing from ebay sounds just as good if not better s1000rr ok fair enough but a GS why just why
please stop using the "bell" sound. Ugh.
Edward Walker you’re not the first to mention it. I’ll be reducing the volume on it for the next one.
@@ABIKETHING 😂 when you use ... like me a Earphones... you make a step each time the bell ring 😂 thank s to lower the ring tone👍👍
The original sounded better.
Sorry mate but it is pronounced Akrapovič
Akrapovik?😃😃😃 Akrapovic
That tank is way too big. Are we really ever that far from a petrol station? Not to mention having that extra weight at the top which is the last place you want it
thanks for your valuable input Craig. But this video is about mufflers. Don't know how you could have missed this point.
1000$ thrown away for nothing...sounds like the same shitty old cow sound
A sound Gs riders love. It was actually a gift from a very generous customer
Sounds worse.
