Expect More Akrapovič Exhaust Systems For Your Favorite Triumph Bikes

On October 7, 2023, Triumph Motorcycles and Akrapovič announced a new long-term partnership that would have the exhaust specialist develop new performance-oriented exhaust systems for Triumph’s motorcycles. According to the press release, the new exhaust systems will be featured on Triumph’s Adventure and Roadster models – presumably the Tiger 900 and 1200, as well as the Street and Speed Triples.

Akrapovič is well-known for its high-performance exhaust systems that have been developed and proven on the race track. The brand has a strong presence in both MotoGP and Dakar Rally, making it the prominent exhaust system manufacturer in the industry. For the consumers, having Akrapovič exhaust systems means having race-bred technology for their bikes.

The Triumph Tiger 900 and 1200 are known for their advanced technology and performance in the adventure bike segment. These bikes compete with some of the most powerful adventure motorcycles in the market. Similarly, the Triumph Street Triple and Speed Triple models are acclaimed for their impressive performance as naked sportbikes. Alongside Triumph’s Adventure and Roadster lineup, the partnership between Triumph and Akrapovič will also involve collaboration on “special projects.” While the nature of these projects is not specified, it is possible that they could lead to special-edition versions of certain Triumph models in the future.

The collaboration between Triumph and Akrapovič initially began on the race track, where Akrapovič supplied exhaust systems for Triumph’s powerful 765cc three-cylinder engine. This engine is still being used in Moto2 racing machines and is expected to continue until 2029. Currently, the Triumph Street Triple RS equipped with the 765cc engine produces 128 horsepower and 59 pound-feet of torque. It is estimated that the Moto2 configuration of these engines can deliver even more power, reaching approximately 140 horsepower.

Triumph Motorcycles CEO, Nick Bloor, expressed that the partnership with Akrapovič would expand the range of genuine products offered by the brand. Bloor stated, “This collaboration is about offering our customers even more choice by extending our range of genuine Triumph accessories. Working with Akrapovič to develop new exhaust systems for our upcoming models, we can give riders the opportunity to enhance the response and feel of their new Triumph motorcycle, knowing that the two have been developed side by side.”

Darvin Dobočnik, the CEO of Akrapovič, also commented on the collaboration, saying, “As a company, we are delighted to be entering into this new collaboration with Triumph. We are honored to cooperate with such an iconic brand with a huge heritage. As companies, we share similar values, and our engineers are already working alongside those from Triumph to develop exhaust systems for Triumph models across many genres of motorcycles, including versions that will surprise many. This is an exciting and important collaboration for Akrapovič, and it is one that we are all eager to be involved with to see what we can achieve as this collaboration grows and strengthens.”

New Akrapovič Slip-On Exhausts For Honda CB750 Hornet And XL750 Transalp

Akrapovič has introduced two new slip-on exhaust options for Honda enthusiasts, specifically designed for the Honda XL750 Transalp and the Honda CB750 Hornet. The Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust for the XL750 Transalp features a black-coated outer sleeve, a lightweight titanium construction, and a stainless steel connecting pipe. The Slip-On Line (Carbon) exhaust for the CB750 Hornet is handcrafted with a carbon fiber outer muffler sleeve, a stainless steel inner frame, and a titanium end cap.

These aftermarket exhaust options offer significant performance enhancements, particularly in the medium to high rev ranges. The Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust provides a power boost of 0.7 kW and a torque increase of 0.9 lb-ft at 5,700 rpm compared to the stock exhaust system. The Slip-On Line (Carbon) exhaust offers an increase of 0.5 kW and 0.42 lb-ft of torque at 5,250 rpm and 5,300 rpm, respectively.

In addition to performance improvements, both exhaust options reduce weight compared to the stock systems. The Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust achieves a 39.8% weight reduction, shedding 3.5 pounds, while the Slip-On Line (Carbon) exhaust achieves a 45.6% weight reduction, trimming down by 3.9 pounds.

Installation of these CE/ECE-approved Euro 5 slip-on exhaust systems is hassle-free and does not require remapping. They provide a deep, sporty sound and are fully compatible with Honda’s original soft cases.

Akrapovič Introduces New Slip-On System for the Honda CB750 Hornet

Akrapovič, a renowned aftermarket exhaust system manufacturer, has been offering exhaust systems for motorcycles of all kinds for many years. Whether it’s for top-level racing or everyday commuter bikes, it’s likely that Akrapovič has an aftermarket exhaust system available. As we enter 2023 with stricter emissions and noise regulations, the Slovenian brand continues to innovate and set the standard for aftermarket systems in terms of performance and sound quality.

Akrapovič Has A New Slip-On System For The Honda CB750 Hornet

Akrapovič’s latest product offering is a slip-on system designed for the Honda CB750 Hornet. This relatively new motorcycle model has received positive reviews and is considered by some to be the new standard in the middleweight category. The CB750 Hornet focuses on delivering a balanced and powerful riding experience. With the addition of Akrapovič’s slip-on system, the bike gains a sportier look, a slight improvement in performance, and reduced weight.

The new Akrapovič slip-on system for the Honda CB750 Hornet features a carbon fiber muffler outer sleeve that is hand-crafted. The exhaust core is made from high heat stainless steel and comes with a link pipe that bolts directly onto the stock manifold. Additionally, a titanium end cap adds durability and provides a contrasting visual element to the exhaust pipe. The system makes use of the bike’s stock exhaust mounts and includes a matching carbon fiber bracket that mounts to the base of the passenger foot peg assembly.

 

From a technical standpoint, Akrapovič claims a weight reduction of 45.6 percent compared to the stock system with their slip-on system. The carbon pipe weighs only 1.8 kilograms. Additionally, there are slight power gains, particularly in the mid to high rpm ranges, although these improvements may not be easily noticeable. The manufacturer states an increase of 0.7 horsepower at 5,250 rpm and 0.4 pound-feet of torque at 5,300 rpm.

Last but not least, Akrapovič’s new system for the CB750 Hornet is fully compliant with Euro 5 standards and has received EC and ECE type-approval. This means that the exhaust system meets the latest emissions and noise regulations in Europe and is likely to comply with regulations in other regions as well. Additionally, the installation process is smooth and seamless, requiring no ECU tuning or remapping.

As of now, official pricing for the Akrapovič slip-on system has not been announced. Prices will vary by region. For more information, visit Akrapovič’s official website or contact a local retailer for details.
