I have a 2004 CBR-1000. It is one down in the front and one up in the back. Im thinking of getting the akrapovic titanium full exhaust system. Now ive heard that you lose a good amount of low end torque, but my bike is fast off the line! I was thinking of going up two in the back so I will have low end speed and allot more top end? If anyone coulk help me, let me know how it worked for you and is it worth it. I know you drop some weight and get some good top end speed. IS IT WORTH BUYING????????

 

I have one on my 99 CBR600F4....full exhaust...I just need to get a stage 2 jetkit but other then that I havent had any issues with it, sounds great, not too loud either...Came with the bike when I purchased it.

 

is it worth it? i would say no...not just for riding around town, spend on something else...

for track and others? yea!

i have the akra evo ti...did i feel drop in lowend power? sure did, but i have a 600....with 1k shouldn't be so bad...just ride higher up in the RPM...but since you already have -1/+1, you'll be fine...if during your off the line launches, you stall out and launch at a higher RPM, it won't hurt your times...but if you let the clutch out fully and start at 1K RPM, you'll be a dog.

now...at the track...and top RPMs...thing breathes and hauls!!!!!

 

one of the reasons im thinking of getting it, is to lose some weight, and get some top end power!! im thinking of going up one more in the back but i don't know how much low end ill lose??

 

if you get the dyno tune done right, you won't even notice it...GET IT ALREADY MANG!!!!!!!!!!!

 

i already have someone ready to dyno tune my bike! are you sure it's worth it????????????????????????

 

ok first, what are you plans with this bike? if tracking....twist or 1/4 mile...then yes...if street then no....

 

just street

 

get it and say you'll go to the track!
i'm a perf freak...so i'm pretty biased mang...so if you get it and 'plan' on going to the track...i think that justifies it!
