I love the way this slip on looks on the 2017+ R6! What I mean by best slip on is how does it compare with looks, sound and weight. Removal of the cat will be next! Baby steps... 😄
I’ve Done the Same thing with my 2016 R1 but Honestly only the look was worth it specially with the engraved R1 emblem on the Exhaust, my friends told me to remove the ( Catalytic ) but I didn’t not my kinda thing. But I was surprised with the extra steps to change the slip on compared to the R1, other than that Great Video as always and Ride Safe
@@itsmeericb I think you will need to remap after you do that, because airflow will change ( that’s what I’ve heard ) For sure would love to see you upload a video about that 👍🏻
Looks nice! You went with the white R6 and the Akro pipe vs my white GSXR 600 with the Yoshi. I think if we want those pipes to get better sound we are going to have to get rid of that pesky cat. Who would you suggest to get an ECU flash, when i do that?
@@itsmeericb I'm going to ride through this season with the cat on. Through our amazing Canadian winter (lol) I'll put on the center pipe and send away my ecu. I'll have time then. Just getting used to my Gixxer. So far so good.
What’s up EricB I had a quick question, I got this exhaust, but I also got the Akra headers and mid pipe, will it sound louder then what you have? I should have gotten the “full exhaust” that comes with everything but decided to do it separately. Love your content! Already subscribed
Will that slip on fit on my R6? I can't find any information.. akrapovic website says only 2017-2020 but they sells other exhaust who fit on mk3 and mk4
You have a 3rd Gen? I thought the exhaust setup and frame were the same? I would think that it would but like you said it only says for 2017+. I’m not 100% certain and don’t want to give you false information. I would just keep searching the internet or see if you can find someone with a 2017+ and compare to see if anything is different.
Muffler design and brand can still make a difference in weight, looks and sound. Not everyone will want to remove their catalytic converters. Thanks for watching.

Sounds beautiful!
Great looking bike! And it sounds good too
sounds good👌🏻

Thanks! Yes this Akra slip on for the R6 and R1 looks amazing! Not too loud either. Once I remove to cat the sound will be much better.

@@MaKhMoKh For sure! 👍
Couldn’t have made a better choice imo bro 🔥. Glad to see your going to decat the R6 its needed really. Bike’s looking 👌🏻

Thanks! Yeah it’s coming! Haha!
@@itsmeericb 👊🏻
Hi sir, did you remove the DB killer or it was still remained intact at the time of the video?
It still had the cat on it. That’s why it’s not that loud.
Personally, I like the yoshi full carbon exhausts. I have the trc and love it
This is very clean. Nice install vid too. Just ordered the same one. It was out of stock for the longest 🤦🏻♂️
Yes it looks the best on the bike!
@@itsmeericb hey Eric, did you get any check engine light after you installed the exhaust?
@@geese7484 Nope! None at all!
@@itsmeericb thank you for the quick reply! Looking forward to more of your videos.
@@geese7484 No problem!

Yeah the cat will have to go for sure! I heard Bauce racing is pretty good for flashes.

Once we take that Cat off brother then we’ll be in business lol. Great video as always man 💪🏿
Thanks! Yeah baby steps haha! Was going to go full Akrapovic header but I may just do a mid pipe and call it a day.
@@itsmeericb Hindle sells headers for super cheap, and buy there mid pipe or M4 mid pipe
@@shawnlack1527 I ended up getting the M4 Y-pipe!

Ayyye thanks! Yes it will. I still had the cat on at the time so it will definitely be louder!
I think there is no big difference of the sound after changed slip on pipe
Yeah not until I do the cat delete
I get the feeling that you're stationed at Polk...

@@itsmeericb Thank you!
@@ProGeorge92 It would fit with minor modifications. The stock muffler comes at a slightly different angle on 2017+ models
@@Kid574 ty
@@ProGeorge92 IIRC you'll need a sleeve to make a slight extension because the akrapovic slip-on will be at a few cm distance from the headers pipe
Without removing the cat, asking what's the best slip on is like asking which human diseases are best ones to get.

@@itsmeericb You literally just showed that yours weighs more, as for the sound the difference will be marginal at best.
Mistakes class 101
Don’t be shy, explain.
Sounds the same to me 🤷
It sort of does haha! Once the cat is removed it sound great!
Wont lie.. Cant really tell the difference.
Yeah definitely have to delete the cat to tell a difference.
@@itsmeericb Im actually thinking about it too, so you saying that in terms of sound, there is no noticeable difference? (only for the look?) Thanks
@@petershi7782 There is a very minute change in sound with this slip on. You either have to get a shorty muffler or remove the cat.
@@itsmeericb Got it, thanks a lot man.
@@petershi7782 No problem!
Sounded the same 🙄😏
Yeah cat definitely has to be removed.
