happy01 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Anyone fitted the Acropovic carbon on a tracer and if so any issues with the center stand ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robb Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I just ordered one yesterday and Revzilla install notes say the center stand must be removed. I removed the centerstand last night, first pulling the 2 springs and then zapping the 2 bolts. It was very easy to remove. I will snap a photo with the carbon installed hopefully next week!

I have since removed the silencer on my Akprovic and installed power commander V.

robb Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Whoomp there it is. I'm happy with the look and the ease of installation and the lower tone rumble at idle. I haven't had a chance to run it yet with the rain here in the South US. I still have my AIS enabled as I want to notice the before and after AIS block off plate backfire on decel. Ill keep you in the loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mx4life120 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Wow looks good. I didn't realize how long the can is. Too bad no centerstand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grogsym Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 That looks excellent, the carbon suits the bike very well. I think the backfire potential on this bike is big, in a good way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robb Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 First test drive today up though about 60 miles per hour in the rain with my acro carbon. Im happy with the sound of the exhaust and minimal afterfire with the AIS still enabled. It has a very low bass tone at idle and gets a bit higher pitched with RPM, higher pitched in comparison than my FZ8 with the Leo Vince, of course we are comparing an inline 3 to an inline 4. With the more open exhaust it likes to run in A mode a bit better than lugging around at lower RPM's. Overall very happy with the price vs style vs sound.

Mx4life120 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 And the center stand won't fit? Where won't it clear? I can cut and modify the stand to get a sweet exhaust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vango Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 the acro titanium fits with centerstand . can is way shorter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robb Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I didnt check to see where the centerstand would interfere with the carbon exhaust as I was looking to shed that weight. I did block off the AIS by plugging the hose to the airbox with a rubber plug. It eliminated around 90% of the afterfire on decel. Still happy with the exhuast! I pulled off the red and yellow Akrapovic sticker too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewickedw0lf Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Have to tried it w/o the baffle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyD Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 The carbon race pipe won't fit because it does a looptydoo under the bike. You'd have to get under or see it off the bike to get it. Its not even close to having clearance for the center stand. It's also LOUD. If you like that type of pipe the M4 slip and Yosh carbon system are for you. I'm tickled with the akro Ti pipe. Better sound then stock, lighter weight and marginal power gain (also keeps the center stand) If your after raw power and lightest weight noise be damned the Carbon Race system is the way to go. With one of Nels tunes on it I bet it will be a monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reeseyboy Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The carbon pipe won't fit with the centrestand as you need to fix the can hanger bracket where the centrestand bracket is behind the right side peg hanger. If you remove the stand bracket, the can hanger bracket can go in it's place. I know this because I tried fitting one a few months ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So did it look like there was even a CHANCE for the center stand to fit even if someone were a welder and capable of changing the center stand around a little?
