The Kawasaki Z900 is one of the sweetest sounding motorcycles available in India, even with the stock exhaust. There are no two ways about it. But what if someone wants more?
Speedmonks Performance Centre in Gurgaon installed an Austin Racing GP1/R de-cat slip on exhaust for one such customer, whose primary requirement was bass and weight loss.
Believe me, this is probably the best sounding exhaust I have ever heard on a sub-litre inline four motorcycle. Much better than the 2019 Honda CBR 650R that was installed with the same exhaust just an hour before shooting this video. Everyone present at Speedmonks was in awe and a bit jealous of the outcome, to be honest.
The bike also easily dropped 10 kg and that can never be a bad thing.
Installing exhausts on such bikes with a big collector box and a catalytic converter can never be an easy task. The collector box had to be cut from the headers and the cat had to be meticulously destroyed since it would not come out in one piece. Nonetheless, hard work always pays off, and the owner could not have been happier.
Now, the specifics:
Exhaust model used: Austin Racing GP1/R
Exhaust weight: 1 kg
Performance gain: About 3-5 BHP expected
Exhaust price: Only Gilles Singh (Speedmonks owner) can tell. Contact him at: +91 9599100494

I hope you enjoyed watching this video. If you have any doubts or queries, please leave me a comment below and I would try my best to reply at the earliest.
Thank you for giving me your time.
Ride hard, ride safe.
I think I need to go to rehab - all I do all day is watch motorcycle videos, Moto vlogs, install videos, etc. I have a sickness! I just can't stop!!! It is affecting my job, my marriage, everything.
What do you need after a hectic day.
Your one of the fav moto vlogger's vid.
It's relaxing.
Edit: used headphones the exhaust sounds like damnn crazy.
Thanks buddy. I need such comments too during my hectic day that is still on :)
@@abhinavbhatt i have cardio left to do.
That's toughest part of the day.
For me at least.
@@abhinavbhatt is there any video for busa like a exhaust installation
Nope.
@@adityarai5367 l
now that just gives me a perfect eargasm!!!
Damn no way to get that legal in germany, but still cool
Illegal in India too :)
It is illegal in Latvia aswell, but so many people ride with loud exhausts rarely anyone on street minds it(cops). You only need to have decend db level when going through official technical inspection :D
Hey...awesome stuff there,,just wanted to know if it comes with a DB killer
India ma 100 rupay se kaam hojayga

Just try this😁😁😁 don't know that it's safe for the bike or not but will surely keeps you from getting a ticket😉
I think the original Austin Racing exhaust cost around 1.7lac...! ✌️🥃❤️💯
Original decat cost around 80 thousand and full system cost around 2000$ which is 1.5lakhs approx. You can check on official Austin racing website. Delivery charge is 200$
This one cost 1.23 lakhs in kolkata
No
@@ashokbhandari5413 then how much is it ?😄
@@sanjeevvsingh there are custom duties involved due to which the price is doubled !!
Dude you got me off guard wasn't expecting that thanks
Thanks for the support as always, Aryan :)
Wow that really sounds incredible. It's loud, but not raspy. Love it.
Yeah, like sc. It sounds perfect. Maybe its because its not a full system
@@jiten2k5 Yeah full systems don't automatically sound better than slip-ons, that's for sure.
Great video, thank you. I really learned how to install this exhaust on this video. Keep up the good work. I love the z 900.
Great work man..as usual✌️✌️
Thanks, bro.
3:00 Please ask Speedmonks to wear same proper safety gear like gloves, safety glasses when dealing with power tools while cutting and drilling.
Sure.
Dude they don't have like OSHA there lol it is what it is.
You're looking like a UFC fighter these days. Video is no doubt amazing. Sound is good whilst in headphones
How I wish I was an MMA fighter. Hahahhahaha. Believe me, even with earphones, the sound is nothing compared to what it is in real life. Insanely good.
U have a lot of knowledge of automobile.
Which made me a fan of u.
Your video are awesome.💓💓💓
Thanks, brother. Don't be a fan though, be a friend :)
Big fan Abhinav! Keep up the good work mate. Always looking forward to the next video. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks, mate. Such encouragement always helps :)
Buuuuuu buuuu
Great sound man
Loved it great sound above 4 thousand rpm....🤠
Whooooa. What a sound. Thanks for the video Abhinav, it was informative and enjoyable. Keep updating us with such mods 🤘
Thank you, bro :)
Love to see your videos. Damn informative, Right on point, and your projects.
Just a humble request, i.e. would love to see you daily on UA-cam. Cheers to your work mate.
Hope you remember me.😅
Hi brother. I wish I could make videos frequently, but I just don't have the time to. And thanks for the encouragement. Memory is a little fuzzy so having a hard time remembering at this point :(
Very nicely presented..covers just the right thing you need to know about exhaust modifications.. thank you so much for posting this video..very helpful indeed 👍
🙏
@@abhinavbhatt So what about the back pressure.. Is there any version of cat installed in the decat slip on pipe from the company itself.??Or the engine will be running lean.?
No. It will run lean. Ideally should be matched with a PC5 for correct fuelling.
@@abhinavbhatt Doesn't sound good for me..I will just go with the slip on...but still technically speaking..there wont be any problem after Pairing with PC5,the engine wont be running lean right..?
No. Once the fuelling is fixed, the engine won't run lean.
oh come on, you remove the cat and have a much shorter end pipe, how on earth does that not need remapping
"tuning" like this makes absolutely no sense without before/after dyno runs
I wouldn't know. Just going by what the exhaust manufacturer is claiming.
The sound same my old motorbike. z900 + austin racing GP1/R. I miss it :(
Abhinav you have a great voice bro. I think you should try dubbing Hollywood movies.
Hahahhaha. But, thank you :)
Sounded Mint ! Crazy Loud 🥰🤸
Man yall "blow" these bikes out of this world man!
First of its kind video from Indian UA-camr. Very informative. Great work sir. One small request - You could have given little more time for that crazy exhaust sound. Jee nahi bhar raha hain......
Hi Lalit. Thank you for the kind words. I'll definitely do that. Maybe record a flyby too and post it on UA-cam.
Great work as usual 😈
Thank you, Mudit.
bro please come up with your detailed review of USD forks on your interceptor and also R15 V3. we are eagerly here for that
Hello, Vaibhav. My forks are still not sorted. As soon as they are, I will make a video on them. Regarding the R15, I need time for that project. Short on money right now for the parts I need.
@@abhinavbhatt thank you, i got no words how enthusiast you are person, and how much knowledge you share with us. god bless you with your projects and family..
@@abhinavbhatt oh fork 🙄🙄
It sounds awesome!
Sounds really good man awesome
you removed the dampner, drilled it out infact. Does not this make the exhaust free flow now. You may need a power commander or a custom ecu map.

I ride many times 900 but this sounds is amazing...
How did you remove the cat? it's very tricky!!!.
Sounds so good at high revs too !
Oh, this video does not do justice to how good this bike sounds.
Awesome sound Abhi
Thanks, Ratna :)
Next level 🔥
I love this sound♥️
Great sound bro.. ❤❤❤
it sounds like a super bike now👌
Its a superbike dude.... Lol
sound doesnt makes the bike
I love the sound!
No backfires?
sadly the biggest restriction is actually the headers.... if you want the best you have to do a full system and only then will the air filter actually do anything. the header pipes are really thick and once you remove them you will see that this was Kawasakis method of creating a govoneryourupgrade will help BHP but the only way on this specific bike is a full system
I dont think you can gain 5bhp by changing exhaust and air filter. You definitely need a ECU flash or PC /Dyno tune to optimize the A/F ratio.
Yeah true they have not done their homework it seems
most probably is that he lost hp
Love it the Sound ...
Nice ...
Hi. I have a 3 month old z900. If I do this to the exhaust, will I still keep the warranty?
I don't think so. Check with your dealership.
Where is your R15 videos,any update about it coz many of us subscribed your for that only n you are busy with this thing...🙄
You should be pleased with his content.
Everyone has a life. If you want to then you can customise your own R15 V3 and put up videos.
Sir, there is no update on my R15 currently. I am busy working on my Interceptor these days and have put the R15 project on the backburner for now. It requires me to travel to get parts and that requires money and time. I am short on both these days. However, as soon as I can, I will returm to that project. I just can't give a deadline yet. Hope you understand.
@@VinodKumar-it5gw Sir, this is not my bike. I shot this after my ride while visiting Speedmonks. Please let me be the judge of whether I have money or not and how I am spending it :)
Also, I understand your disappointment, but do understand that it requires planning, time and a lot of money to travel to another country, buy expensive parts and get them to India and pay custom duty on them and then to actually build the bike up. And I am not building the bike for UA-cam, neither does it pay my bills. So, it will have to wait for when I am comfortable to do it. Can't help the situation anymore.
Abhinav Bhatt how can you be so polite😂❤
Good video again. Just one question.. what exactly do you do for a living? 😅
Haha. I am a journalist.
Your video is supab and awesome bro...
Plz make video like this
Thank you. Will make more.
DUDE make a video of AUSTIN IN NINJA 650 plse....! am confuse which one is good for my ninja 650
If a customer wants one, will make a video.
Ok bro...!
Damn. That looks awesome. Plus sounds insane. If only there wasnt the stupid EU Euro 4-5 rules for the UK. I'd love to do this to my Z1000sx..
Oh very nice guys !!
I love this content as well.
I think you should keep that cat, is not have much different effect. Its enginered very well for best airflow, and good for environment too.
Good for environment, sure. But Austin Racing would have figured the system without the cat too.
Not need to weld??
Sounds great 👍!
Hey that's a good one man but i have a query, as u cut the pipe to fit the AR exhust but if i want fit the stock exhust again what is the process?
You'll have to weld it back.
Sound 🔥🔥
Bro where is ur r15 v3 bro we are very much excited to see the mods
Bro, I will finish it once I finish my Interceptor.
Bro I am eagerly waiting for because I want to make my r15 v3 more powerful bro
Beautiful!
abhinav ji fir ye exhaust system slip on hua ki full system
In a way full system.
Hi bro.......will changing the exhaust system gonna affect the efficiency of the engine?
Slight drop. Not a lot.
Great video
Is the DB killer installed in this video? Also is there any back firing issues without a remap? Great video btw.
No DB killer in this, as far as I remember. I am not certain about the back firing issues either but they would certainly be there.
What about daivo exhaust from Thailand??
Sir what is the status of your R15? I've been waiting for it for a long time. Please update soon if possible
Hi Shikhar. There is no update right now. The project is on hold.
sir. im gona this with akrapovic. after its done, do i have to tune it??? im gona remove the catlyser
Ideally one should tune it.
Damn the Eargasmic note
Hi is it legal and allowed in Chennai? What’s d cost? I m riding a honda cbr 650
Not legal. Costs Speedmonks will be able to tell you.
I bet it wouldve been loud enough even with the catalyst installed... Most of the souns is killed by the metalbox which is directly connected to the catalyst.
Can we fit that onto a ninja 1000 sx ? Also will I need to remap
Austin Racing do make exhausts for the Ninja 1000. I don't think a remap is needed.
@@abhinavbhatt so there will be no popping and crackling ? What exhaust would you recommend for 1000sx also I am planning to get the 2020 which will be a single sided exhaust. So please recommend. I would like to install something that has a good sound loud but not too loud. Something that makes justice to the 4 inline sound 😍🤩✌
@@mohsinrekhivlogs best would be to consult Speedmonks. They are the experts on this. They've installed a few Austin Racing exhausts on the Ninja 1000.
@@abhinavbhatt ok cool thanks I live in mumbai though no stress
This r the original z900 headers right?
Yes.
Headers r not titanium.... thn how can it make such a beautiful sound...?
@@tulsibhattarai6010 no idea man. But the Z900 is one crazy sounding bike.
Which is louder sir?? SC project s1 on z900 or Austin racing gp1 on z900 😄??
I haven't heard the SC so can't say.
Remap is certainly needed. The air/fuel mixture is for sure different with a straight exhaust. Unless the stock ecu is able to fix it on its own
Think the stock ECU adapts to a certain extent. Though I am not too sure about that.
Its better to ask from the manufacturers like I did from AR and here is the direct quote from the mail I got "All of our system options are thoroughly dyno tested prior to sale, these go through strict oil analysis and fuelling testing to ensure no damage can come of installing them without a re-map, unless otherwise stated.
Our systems have a series of inserts within the link pipes themselves which provide adequate back pressure where required, in removing these you will need to have a re-map as this will drastically alter the fuelling and Db levels !
As with all of our systems if you wish to get the most from them a re-map is recommended, however the Z900 systems do no require this for day to day use,
I hope this helps.
All the best,"
@@mikv3752 even i was worried with my setup ..Austin + Bmc..Was thinking about getting a booster plug..Thanks bro
Is it necessary to remove the catalytic converter?
So it’s basically a straight pipe right? Or is there another cat further down the headers?
I am not sure if there is another cat in the headers.
why you guys dont show the dp killer
r15 v3 project.Is it declined?190km/hr?
On hold, not declined. I'm trying to finish my Interceptor first.

Bhai you look like Beefed up Kratos from God of war! 😊
One of my favourites.
Oh i did not give a thought, long i had felt he looks like someone. But i have seen one real Kratos like person in in Miami. So i have that credit to him. But yeah you r quite right :D Kratos is my fav character.
Can i fit dual exhaust of ekrapovic or sc project on my Z900 plz tell me guys, i am from Delhi
Doesn't it require a fuel controller like power commander or powertronic just to make sure it doesn't run lean?
Ideally it should.
Bhai hum isme headers cutting kr ke full system bana sakte he kya
Haan, but mat hi karo to better hai.
@@abhinavbhatt q sir aisa full system lagane gaya to uska cost bhot jyadha he
Thats such a sweet sounding Exhaust note!!!! How much does that exhaust cost???? Also how much does that Air filter cost?? It would nice to know those details too. In near Future, i will be getting a 4 Cylinder bike just for the sound it makes. Z900 seems to be a Good Alternative to a CB1000R.
Pricing not revealed for a reason. Just contact Gilles Singh to know how much these cost. Details in the video description.
Best sound ever
Holy shit I did not expect that sound at all.
Sweeter than her voice.....dammmmn
sir
is this come with DB killer ? if no then can we install in it?
I'm not sure, sir.
Hey bro!!! Can u tell me are these stock headers??? If yes then after installing full system sc project will it be that loud???
Yes, stock headers. And yes, with a full system it should be similarly loud.
@@abhinavbhatt And what if we change the headers? Like akrapovic or arrow. What will be the difference???
what was the total cost of adding slip-on and for removing the catalytic converter???
Hey abhinav Can you Recommend a Good supersport Bike in India uner a price Tag or 12L!
CBR650R eyes closed!
Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R. Should be around 12-13.
Any ecu map.bcz in European motorcycles like s1000rr they wont allow to taks catalytic converter even then it voids warranty and then ecu is mapped but i seen many japanese bikes zx10r z800 z900 put decat without any ecu map .my doubt is won't it affect engine on long run and run lean mixture
The company says remap not needed for this one.
Sir me z900 kharid ke yesa kru mera full system ka paisa bach jayega isme koi engine ka problem to nhi hoga na
Koi dikkat nahi aani chahiye.
Was the cat material made from asbestos? Were you coughing for weeks after breathing that stuff?
No. Nothing like that.
Where do you buy these exhaust can I get link for it
Guys use the grinder guard in angle grinder it may lead to fatal accident
From where did u get this dna filter
What if we don't remove the cat?
Awesome sound
What's it that looks like pre load adjuster on the nearby r3?
That is a special special bike. Want me to review it?
Buenas tardes desde Colombia un saludo en que página puedo conseguir ese exosto tal cual como esta en el video ?? Suena genial la moto así, gracias
Sir , i have installed replica exhaust without PT ecu in my r15 v2 ,& fat rear tyre of 150 size , now my bike is not achieving it's top speed , it's going only 128 kmph
Reason is exhaust or fat tyre , or both
Both, sir. I would suggest you to return to stock.
6:37 🔂🎧
What is the price of that exhaust? Sir
Amazing 👍
Thanks
With a aftermarket air filter and exhaust you just super leaned out the air fuel mixture need a remapping immediately
