Akrapovič has added two more replacement exhausts to its Honda collection with the launch of a Slip-On (Titanium) line for the Honda XL750 Transalp and a Slip-On (Carbon) line for the Honda CB750 Hornet.
Both exhausts have been created with competition-proven materials, with the Slip-On Line (Titanium) for the Honda XL750 Transalp featuring a black-coated outer sleeve on the silencer, a new design end cap, and a bracket, all made of lightweight titanium. These are accompanied by a stainless steel link pipe and internal silencer structure. The Slip-On (Carbon) line for the Honda CB750 Hornet is built with a handcrafted carbon fiber outer sleeve on the silencer and an internal structure and stainless steel link pipe, all leading to a titanium end cap with a new design with imprints for a sporty look.
During the development process of the Slip-On (Titanium) line, Akrapovič engineers focused intensely on throttle response and rideability. This led to performance gains in the mid to high rpm ranges, with a power increase of 0.7 kW (0.9 hp) and a torque increase of 1.3 Nm – both at 5,700 rpm – when compared to a stock system and tested on Akrapovič’s in-house dynamometer.
The Slip-On Line (Carbon) also focuses on power and torque gains, especially at medium and high revs. Increases of 0.5 kW (0.7 hp) at 5,250 rpm and 0.6 Nm at 5,300 rpm were recorded when compared to a Honda CB750 Hornet equipped with a stock system and tested on Akrapovič’s internal dynamometer.
The use of lightweight materials reduces the weight of the Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust by 39.8% (1.6 kg) and the Slip-On Line (Carbon) system by 45.6% (1.8 kg) compared to stock exhausts.
These CE/ECE approved Euro 5 systems do not require remapping. They are simply plug-and-play installations and, once on the bike – with the throttle open – they emit a deep, sporty, and vivid Akrapovič sound. They are also fully compatible with Honda’s original soft bags.
This pair of new exhausts is already available. Not only will they add a touch of customization to your machines, but they will also reduce weight and provide a distinctive Akrapovič sound.
