I have a 2019 xsr900...I did the carbon Akrapovic...It was popping loudly so I deleted all smog and installed the Graves block off plates kit...then took my ecu to a local bike shop for tuning...Its been 5 years and still runs great...enjoy!
Very tempted with the XSR,to replace my Speed Twin,but a stock exhaust system a total No,No. This set up is by far the best looking and sounding I have seen......Perfect🔥🔥🔥
I have the full cp3 & alpha for my 2022 from Kelpi custom. I absolutely love the whistle into those sweet backfires but that full shorty system gives such a deep growl of aggression its a thing of beauty. Congrats on the bike & exhaust man! Enjoy ride safe
nice! yeah im still blown away by the quality of it. it is so choice... its starting to get some sick coloration on it, im about to upload a short walk around close up vid with some close ups of it. it looks great! and i love the little blips and pops it makes when downshifting or decelerating.. so good :D
Switch that mounting bracket to the inside where your rear brake is and you should have plenty of clearance. That's what I did on my 2023 xsr900 with the SC Project S1 exhaust. Sounds mean!
Hi mate, Is it possible to put the baffle in the wrong way? Got XSR 900 2023 with full shorty system, l got a bike mechanic to fit for me but when l got it back the guy said put baffle in, but it was very hard to fit and l wasnt sure which way it went in. But l got it in. So now l may have to pull it apart myself to see what he did.
@@chriswittman4975 I did some digging around as I'm I love with this sound this bike makes and I found this header on eBay I'm wondering if it's the same
aw man sorry to hear that! hope you recover quick! ill be making more soon, the weather has been terrible and i bought a project car which has destroyed all my free time :D
If you ever look at the ecu can you get the model number for me? i'm talking to a tuner to try and see if he already supports this ecu from tuning mt09s.
I don’t see this model on their website. They have one for xsr900s but it doesn’t appear to have the cool header welds nor does it say it fits 2022 models. Can you share the exact link to the one you bought?
The mt09 gains like 4hp from an exhaust alone without even any flashing so that's likely same 4hp you're feeling. Flash may get it in the 10-12 range but we won't know for sure til I can get the ecu part number. I'm gonna call yamaha Monday but I assume it's the same one in the mt09 sp since it shares all the same features and engine.
yeah i believe that. after riding more its got a bit more poke for sure. id guess its the same to but who knows.. i mean yamaha does of course hopefully they share that info :D
Nope! With the way it sweeps up I sometimes hit it with the heel of my shoe if I stand up, but mostly it’s not a bother. I asked the guy I was emailing when I bought it why it’s like that, he said for better clearance on hard corners.
I recently saw a guy mounting his plate with the existing bolts under the tail. So I'm just going to do the same maybe get some kind of block off plate in the future.
yeah ive been looking under there and i see how itd be possible.. not sure about getting the light back under there though. ill find a nice tidy someday :)
@@chriswittman4975 ya with an integrated tail light that also functions as blinkers it'll be fine. I've never had a bike so new that there were so little options lol this is rough.
@@admireinspire I know right? My last bike was a new model too but I never wanted to mod it. This one though.. now that I want to mod it the aftermarket is sure taking its time 🤦♂️
Hey Chris, does the exhaust really sound as gnarly and loud as it is in the video ? I know you put the mic under the seat, perhaps it is a bit exaggerated on YT compared to how it really sounds ? Would really appreciate your answer. Thanks!
@@lechtaczka1272 it kinda does, yeah 😂. I keep meaning to try it with the baffle in it, that would likely tame it down a bit. But I always ride with ear plugs, so it usually sounds great to me. Although sometimes I’ll do a quick trip and not bother, and then I’m like oh damn, this is loud 🙂. Sure helps on the highway when lane splitting though, if someone doesn’t move over I’ll downshift behind them.. I can see them look up and then move over 🤠
@@chriswittman4975 yeh quality looks top notch. i just spoke to jock at kelpi. considering getting it shipped to manila. need to save up first. not sure yet.
I think you made the right choice. But I always wanted a triple for the intake noises and I feel like a loud exhaust mutes that cool part but it honestly sounds like my old r1 did. Difference here is you can pull under 65mph with the xsr and the r1 can't. Anytime I was having fun I was committing a felony lol. I put in my xsr order 2 days ago. Only 6 months wait to go?😭
yeah seriously. this bike is super fun at reasonable speeds, and its still very capable of getting into the very not ok for public street speeds :D hope you dont have to wait 6 months, but if you do just know itll be worth the wait!
@@chriswittman4975 keep the mod videos coming. I'm currently living through you! All I saw as far as exhausts was the m4 and the akra this one is way better. Hoping to find a flush fender eliminator I don't like the license plate hanging look.
thanks! ill try and keep em coming. and yeah the other exhausts out there are pretty weak. the kelpi pipes are boss as hell! they look even nicer in person. i hope the sound came through in the vid, its so good. kinda drowns out the intake noise, but worth the trade id say. and i want to ditch the fender too! kelpi has one in the works ill likely get :D
did you get it tuned? they set them up to run lean and this exhaust will make it run leaner. even if you just send off the ecu that will add more fuel. I sent off my xsr700 ecu, that made it ride so much better. then I had my 1050 tiger tuned after I decatted it and sc project slip on. the tuner said I was lucky something didn't seize. I go like the sound for five minutes then I'd put the baffle back in :)
There is a thing called the 12 minute tune for triumphs. where you start it up (no revs) and leave it to run for 12 minutes after the fan kicks in. the ECU is supposed to sort it out. but on the first dyno run my fuel was running at the limit of the chart the chart only went to 15 and my air to fuel was running 15. in the UK you can post the ecu off and they put a new map on it to run with the exhaust and a filter change only cost £150. where a tune starts at £350. a new map will sort out the juddering and make it run smoother with a bit more bhp. plus they can increase the rev limits and make the fan kick in at a lower temp.@@kangacrew540
i got it from either revzilla or cyclegear, cant remember which one. its available at a bunch of places.. and no, its just stuck. doesnt seem to need a pc.. im sure it could get a few more hp with one, but im not worried about it. it runs great as is and a few extra hp wont matter much :)
I am considering an XSR900 to compliment my R7 but I might wait and see if the rumored R9 based on this platform comes in 2024. She looks and sounds great friend 🤘😎🎸🏍
Unless you’re all about the r7 for it’s weird little reason of existence, the xsr will make you wanna sell it in a blink of an eye. The new model is pretty damn spectacular. The brakes, and the throttle mapping are my only two complaints. Both easily fixable
Ha yeah, without the baffle.. I always ride with earplugs so it sounds perfect to me. Until I take a short trip or forget plugs, then I’m like.. ok this is pretty loud 😂. Super helps with lane splitting though!
Ohhh mate that’s sounds amazing! I’ve been on the hunt for an aftermarket exhaust for my Mt09 and all the usual suspects are from the northern hemisphere and half are UE restricted and only stumbled by chance upon this Kelli brand . Dude I’m stoked with all their extras they do for these bikes. I’m from New Zealand, so these being from OZ is like down the road. An Akraprovik? Is $2320nzd compared to $ 1250nzd landed and it won’t have the sht kicked out it through shipping. Brilliant!! Ride safe. Oh and shout out to the vehicle that moved over to let you pass, obviously a rider at some point.
ha yeah, its out. stay tuned, im going to make a short video with the baffle in. i almost always ride with earplugs, so it sounds perfect. its a bit loud without em though :D
Sorry to say that the sound isn't good at all to me (no deep low tone) and you can't ride it when it is rain. The rain will sip thru the exhaust outlet
@@tw-BB ha yeah, it’s not gonna be for everyone. It sounds better in person! Also I don’t ride in the rain, but I’ve gotten stuck in a few heavy downpours. I think any water that gets in there just gets blown out or evaporated so 🤷♂️

Hey Chris when you put it together you put the bracket on the collector on the outside it should be on the inside that's why it touches the rear brake

have you fixed the problem of it being too close to your rear brake pedal?
