We've been talking about this for a while, and it's finally here. The Akrapovic stainless steal header finally arrived so we can now turn the slip-on into a full system. As far as full systems goes, this was a pretty easy install. The Akrapovic systems are meticulously made and it shows. Everything fits together perfectly with no issues, and mounts to the bike like it's an OEM part. For this setup, you will need to buy either the carbon slip on, as well as the stainless steel header, each sold separately.

Yes the Akrapovic slip on is designed to work with their header for the Ninja 400, good to go there. As for the mapping you can use a Dynojet full system map to get started.

Is it necessary to add a power commander? Thanks!

You do not have to install a fuel controller. I recommend installing the pipe then riding the bike to see how you feel about the performance. If you are happy then leave it, not happy install a controller. - Van

Please Japan, we want a reliable small-cc 90º Vtwin with actual performance. If you want to cheap out, at least put a 270° crank in these 300's and 400's. Or you could make a 500 to replace the former Ninja 500R.

We have had excellent luck with our Ninja 400 as well as our R3. No major issues with either bike. - Van

You’ve never heard an Akra IRL then. No offense but Leo’s are the bottom-of-the-barrel choice. Listening at bike nights the Akra’s have the lowest, most even tone; Leo’s are on 18-year-olds bikes, and sound like a Civic with a fart can. Night and day. If you want pure ‘braaaap’ and to be as loud as possible, get a Leo Vince. If you want full tone and an actual performance increase, get the Akrapovic.
