Installed the Akrapovic can and cat-delete header on my brand new 1250RS and I had MAXBMW performance-tune the bike.
Significant difference in performance, from an already strong performing bike. One thing...you can actually tell when the cam shifts, now.
Have not seen actual numbers from MAX, but I do know fuel consumption went from ~44mpg to ~38mpg.
The sound is definitely better...not loud and obnoxious like the Termi's on my Ducati...but a nice mellow tone. Throatier than stock.
I'd upload a video but the file size is to large and I have no way to compress it.

It looks good without the graphics. I'm tempted to take the stickers off mine. How difficult was it? Typical hair dryer job?

As for the video, you could upload to youtube and then share it here.

the forum host does weird things for newbies, posting URLs, videos etc. We have no control over this as it is a "bought in" off the shelf platform.

stick it on youtube and post a shortened link which some kind janitor might edit

Do you have a gmail account? If so, you have a youtube account.

Or you could upload a video to instagram and link to it.

After reading all these reviews, seems like SC project exhaust might sound a little louder than the Akro and Remus. Will keep you updated after I install that. But with my current Akro I am really disappointed.

I've just installed a Blue Flame muffler from the UK and very happy with it. You can adjust it 4 ways for noise. With both restrictors in, it meets the Euro specs. I removed the one restrictor and that gives it a nice sound not too noisy but cars can hear you.

Quality is excellent and there are various types - titanium, stainless, blue burnished and carbon fibre. I went for the latter. It looks great on my 1200!

On the Akra there is an 8mm bolt below a rubber bung .
However the bolt is not in alignment and has a tack weld .
I can't get the 8mm socket to line up enough to undo .
Any ideas .
Thanks
