- I have been talking about a new exhaust for the BMW S1000R for a longtime. One of the only areas that really bugged me was the muffled sound and the massive Cat that look terrible and weighs a ton!
SO here it is my new full titanium Akrapovic exhaust system, yes I’ve installed Akrapovic titanium headers with the orgional Akra sports end can. This think now sounds awesome, like it should do. Watch my quick intro more details to follow.

The sound has really improved I'd say
oh it sounds lovely!
Dear Sir, I have the same bike (s1000r 2019) and the exhaust is the only thing I'd change. I tried to remove the baffle but no chance. This is a serious investment but the sound on the over-run, downshift and idle are very impressive. The looks are much better & I would suspect the weight improvement would be evident.
It’s awesome.
Have exactly the same mate,and love it..huge improvement over the stock
It really is although got some unwanted attention in Spain. It’s like gun shots on deceleration. Still toying with a new end can! You?
Its a tad bit loud for my liking so i put a small baffle in the end can at the end can where the headers meet and its taken the harness out of it..i like the std aka end can to be honest.
Wow sounds awesome. Worth the time!
Yes. Although to longer than I hoped. But it’s just about being familiar with everything. And getting all 4 headers in was fun! The answer was wd40.
Hey man! Where did you buy the full exhaust? I'm getting a 2018 model s1000r thursday and was already thinking about changing the stock exhaust to a full akra system. Many thanks!
Hey. Should be a link in the video description. I got it form the main distributor but many people stock it. Just get the full titanium pipe and keep the silencer. It sound amazing.
@@PetrolHeadsLdn Thanks man, i've ordered it. :)
You won’t regret it. Sound excellent. And can always swap the end can later.
It looks beautiful, I have the same bike but in white color.
Question, do you have to do any software modifications,
Or maybe power commander to make it run better or I should say
no to have a fuel problem?
I love it and the new pipe. Video with a it more in-depth to come. ;)
Wow, that really cleans it up doesn’t it?
Yeah and sound the nuts
Awesome bike. Great sound.
thanks I love it! sounds o much better now!
Hi, did you had a chance to measure the db level at 5500 rpm with the setting you have now. I wonder how much it exceeds the stock 94 DB level. I have 2018 model.
it tempts me very much to replace the header and remove that ugly cat. Eurocrats are killing the little joy we have left.
Good question no kit yet but I will especially with so much emphasis on sound cameras and clamping down on noisy vehicles. I love this mod do it.

Hi,
Pro DB kit is quite expensive. Maybe you could try with phone, just download an app. To get an aprox. measure.
🙋🍻
No boring cars and fancy numberplates. Normal bloke and a bike. Nice video, Sir, indeed. Ride safe!💙
Thanks as always
So would you recommend a header change or a shorty Akra GP exhaust? Considering cost vs sound....
not seen just a shorty aka, bit m,y understanding is the cat kills most of the sounds. I love mine expensive but just sounds so rich.
Also thinking of a Ilmberger carbon belly pan to make it look more presentable. So when is the follow up video with more sound bites
Kevin G ...I’m considering the same. Iimberger belly pan to hide the ugliness.
go for a new pipe it look delicious!
Did you have to buy a servo eliminator?
No might be a good idea though. Do you
I live in Europe (Italy) and replaced end pipe with sc-project crt... Looks and sounds better (and is legal).... But I so want these headers... Problem is, they constitute an instant mot fail in Italy, and worse, instant bike sequestration and huge fine... How are these headers legal when the cat has disappeared??
No idea but I assume it is a pretty common mod here. I did get a lot of attention in Italy France and especially Spain. Video to come. They are great.
@@PetrolHeadsLdn Can't wait for the video!!... Enjoy the beast :-)
Yeah sorry it’s taking a while.
Any problem with under belly fairings hitting headers? I just installed last night and bottom fairing hitting the headers on both side
So only just noticed bottom left catching on the pipe a bit of melting need to but a spacer on
PetrolHeads London I put some spacers! It was touching on both sides for me! Got some aluminum 1/4 tubing and chopped it into .500 pieces and put it in between the fairing and the clip
What did you do to sort out the fuelling after fitting the full exhaust system
Yes I need to do a video soon
Nice video sir congrats
Thanks
Hi again, if you don't mind: what was the cost for this mod
video with more detail coming soon.
PetrolHeads London, nice video, nice bike, nice setup. Very useful reference.
Have you heard a no cat headers with Akra GP slip-ons? How does that compare sound-wise with your setup? Deciding whether to add to the Akra headers an Akra GP slip-on or just use the stock Akra slip-on. Have read Akra GP slip on plus Akra headers are too loud, but haven't actually heard
thats what I have straight titanium headers.
Apologies not with the gp
Pipe. Yet!
What did you do with the servo?
Removed it.
Nice work mate! Oddly you look exactly like me!!! ;) My long lost bro!! ;)
lucky you! lots more to come just been struggling on time.
Bald what ya talking about. I have a fine head of hair. At least that’s what I think.
Do you know if it voids warranty or not?
I sorry did lots of digging and some say yes others. No. One dealer told be to swap it back if there was an issue. Anyway I had no issues during warranty.
@@PetrolHeadsLdn I hear ya, i've basically come to the same conclusion. I may just try to snipe some RR headers cheap, or just save up til its over to be safe xD
Without remapping is less horse power🤷♂️
Is that a statement?
