Premium Member rustyshackles Posted December 2, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted December 2, 2016 Has anyone installed the Akra full titanium system with the first generation Higdonian crash bars & skid plate? Wondering if the Akra will fit through the tight space. IBA Member #59800 3 Nations Brewing Mug Club #100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member shadow71 Posted December 9, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted December 9, 2016 Put a few miles on the FJ-09 with the Akro IT, 300 or so. It seems louder to the rider, might be my Givi screen. No one had said it's too loud. From the cruiser guys, Harleys and imports, said is sound good and much more noticable. Funnies comment was from a State Police, Motorcycle Trooper. Giving crap that now he could "HEAR" were I was. During a motorcycle escort and assisting in road blocking during a run and then a funeral. 8-) Still need to update my ECU trims for the Akro w/o insert. 2015 FJ-09, Red/Black, Hard Sidecases, Rear Rack with 39L & 50L Top Case, Tank bag with GPS cover. Comfort seat, Now Corban seat, Givi Crash Bars/Sidestand Foot/Sport Touring Windshield, Rad protector, Blaster-x taillight/flasher, HighTechSpeed Proton FZ6R flushmounts (Front) & X-Arc (Rear) additional turn signals & markers, Fender Eliminator/LED plate light. CF fenders/Front extenstion, chain protector and frame filler. Akra Ti exhaust. FTECU with Akro open tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member shadow71 Posted December 14, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted December 14, 2016 Looks like the new exhuast has a carbon fiber end cap over the tip. That's all I see. 2015 FJ-09, Red/Black, Hard Sidecases, Rear Rack with 39L & 50L Top Case, Tank bag with GPS cover.

hailwood Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 It also looks like the new version has a larger muffler, and that it may require the removal of the centerstand - it's a little hard to tell, but it doesn't appear that the FJ in the photos still has the stand attached.

vango Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 I was told by parts Canada on behalf of akrapovic that it doesn't affect the centerstand. I ordered one through my dealer. I will report when I get it and install. I am skeptical though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChickenStrip Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 This is the reply I got from Akrapovic when I asked about the newer version: from mcsupport: Hello , Thank you for your interest In Akrapovic Exhaust Systems. This system is designed to fit with the stock settings which include a side stand. We have not tested the system with a center stand however, we do not believe it will work. Please review the installation manual in the below link: https://d1sfhav1wboke3.cloudfront.net/ImageServer/Apim2media/Documents/17309/865919f4bb894a0b902ccb666af3c37d.pdf Best, Nicole Allen, MBA Motorcycle Division Team cid:image001.png@01CDADDE.E83513F0 Akrapovič d.d.

ChickenStrip Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 lol. Somebody needs to show this video to Akrapovic and let them know that it does work with the center stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phennig13 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 If anyone wants to see and hear an Akra being given a workout, then this is one to watch. I don't ever want to ride like this, or take safety gear this casually. You may have seen it already, but always enjoyable to listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
