I just installed mines on my 2021 mt07 so feel free to ask me any questions. I found that my headers (could be product defects?) were a bit to close together so i had to slightly force the pipe by applying some pulling force. The carbon mounting bracket was definitely one of the fustrating point. It wouldnt sandwich properly and i had to get someone to pull on the metal bracket to slip the nut in. Not impossible but hard. I know that akrapovic said that you dont need a tune provided you have stock everything else such as intake (with snorkel on) but a tune is definitely recommended. Videos dont do this full exhuast justice. It has a nice low rumble and i love it. I tried it with baffle in and out and the sound difference is night and day. Baffle out is unbearably loud and I personally wouldnt reccomend it. Even with baffle in, i find it most comfortable with foam earplugs in.

Just installed on my brand new '23 07. It only had 13mi on it with the stock exhaust but immediately the difference was night and day. I listened to countless KZfaq videos with aftermarket exhaust comparisons, stock comparison, etc. There is just no way to fully understand the rip roaring akra until you fire that beast up. I was blown away, it is plenty loud. I looked at several different options and narrowed it down to the Toce, SC CR-T , and Akrapovich before I made my final decision. I have not heard the other two in-person but now that I have this carbon akrapovich installed I couldn't be happier. Thanks again for the help!

@troywee4774 2 жыл бұрын

most exhausts are generally 'tuned' by length(and diameter) and in very simple terms a short system is good at high rpm and a long system is good for low rpm, so i would assume the loop is there to make the system work better at all round rpm (length suited to that engine) and looped for asthetic reasons?

Mine is now tuned with the power commander. You bike will auto adjust its fuel to the new exhaust but it’s not enough. You can put it on there and be fine but run the risk of burnt exhaust valves from a lean fuel mixture. Backfiring and popping are common signs of a lean condition. ECU flash or power commander are good options to prevent that. It’s all up to you and how much risk you want to take

Thanks for the comment Richard. You are absolutely right about the ECU being able to auto adjust however the issue is it does not adjust enough to compensate for how much air is flowing out the exhaust. With a stock air filter and no other mods than a full exhaust you might scrape by with little to no negative effects. Maximum performance is achieved with a flash tune or fuel adapter. Revzilla's website also says no tune necessary but for maximum performance a tune is recommended.

You skipped that bottom bolt that’s lined up with the brake lever how did you get to it

@BradTheBuilderChannel 2 жыл бұрын

I used a shorty allen key otherwise you have to take the master cylinder from the mount to expose the bolt fully. It's just a little more involved.

Anyone feel excess vibration in the right foot peg after installing this exhaust?

@BradTheBuilderChannel 2 жыл бұрын

I have not personally noticed this issue but check to make sure the parts were put back in the proper order and or torqued to the right spec. They may be over tightened not allowing the rubber around this fasteners to do their job. Hope this helps!

hey how loud is the akrapovic on the mt 07

@BradTheBuilderChannel 2 жыл бұрын

It’s subtle on idle but when you open it up it’s loud. I keep my db killer in and it’s still loud. Not to the point where you need ear plugs but it’s perfect. Harleys are louder lol

What made you choose the power commander over flashing the ecu?

@BradTheBuilderChannel 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comment Richard. The power commander can be removed from the bike which I like. Easier to diagnose issues if it doesn't run right. If the ecu is flashed there isnt much you can do besides having it reflashed.

@BradTheBuilderChannel 2 жыл бұрын

@@harjsidhu4026 I’ve had a ton of people ask this. Your stock ECU will adjust slightly to compensate but getting an ECU flash or piggy back system such as the powercommander will allow you to optimize performance out of the pipe and reduce the risk of burnt exhaust valves due to a lean condition without a fuel tuner. Backfires and pops are characteristicas of lean condition.

Thanks for checking out the channel Japanluv. I’m 5’ 10”. I can flat foot the bike so it might be a little tight being 6’ 2” but the thing is majority of sport bikes are going to be tight like that.
