Akrapovič has added two more replacement exhausts to its Honda collection with the launch of a Slip-On Line (Titanium) for the Honda XL750 Transalp and a Slip-On Line (Carbon) 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 newly designed end cap and bracket, all made from lightweight titanium. These are accompanied by a stainless steel connecting pipe and an internal silencer frame. The Slip-On (Carbon) line for the Honda CB750 Hornet is built with a hand-crafted carbon fiber outer muffler sleeve and a stainless steel inner frame and connecting pipe, all leading to a titanium end cap with a new design imprinted 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 medium and high rev 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 standard system and tested on Akrapovič’s in-house dynamometer.
The Slip-On (Carbon) line 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 standard system and tested on Akrapovič’s in-house 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 the standard exhausts.
These CE/ECE-approved Euro 5 systems do not require remapping. They are simply a plug-and-play installation and, once on the bike – and with the throttle open – they emit a deep, sporty and vivid Akrapovič sound. They are also fully compatible with Honda’s original soft cases.
This pair of new exhausts is available now. Not only will they add a touch of personalization to your machines, they will also reduce weight and provide a distinctive Akrapovič sound.
