The Akrapovic slip on exhaust for the BMW F700GS and F800GS is an excellent performance exhaust if you like quiet mufflers, and dislike having money lol
I picked up an Akrapovic used from a guy in Ottawa for $700 Canadian. He happened to be coming to Toronto for a concert so I said bring the pipe with you.
I installed it, test rode it, compared it to stock, and even compared it to a baffled Leo Vince exhaust on a G650GS. Honestly, I like the G650GS sound better at this point.
The Akra suffers from what is known as quiet ass pipe syndrome, aka Euro-4 compliance. The tone is deeper than stock, but not necessarily louder. The baffles aren't removable without taking apart the entire exhaust (part of Euro 4 rules). You'll get a marginal, unnoticeable performance boost.
Overall there are better ways to spend $1,000 in my opinion, but please have a look and let me know what you think.
New to the twin after thoroughly loving my 650 single, and always learning. All feedback, knowledge, suggestions, whatever, are welcome.
