Akrapovic Megaphone Slip-On Exhaust Kawasaki Z1000 / Ninja 1000 2014-2017
Akrapovic Megaphone Slip-On Exhaust Kawasaki Z1000 / Ninja 1000
The design of the Akrapovic Megaphone exhaust was inspired by the exhaust found on MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 machines. It is constructed entirely of lightweight titanium all the way down to the titanium exhaust hanger - making this one of the lightest exhaust available from Akrapovic. But Akrapovic didn't stop there, to cut down even more weight they choose to laser engrave the Akrapovic logo onto the exhaust instead of using a heat resistant decal.
The Akrapovic Slip-On Exhaust represents the first step into the world of exhaust system tuning. By no means entry level, it offers a great balance between price and performance. Each bespoke exhaust is designed to enhance the performance and match the design philosophy of your motorcycle. Transform the nature of your bike by adding not just more power, but also that unique, deep and resonant Akrapovic sound.
It’s not just about peak power - Akrapovic exhaust systems deliver increased performance throughout the entire RPM range. Increases in power and torque result in a much smoother power delivery and ride. All Akrapovic exhaust system measurements are formulated on in-house computer-controlled flow benches.
Features:
- No fuel remapping required, but for optimal performance RevZilla recommends use of a fuel controller
- A combination of beautiful machine and hand welds
- Optimized to maximize lean angle
- Air-tight quality controlled production means your exhaust will be perfect

I installed this yesterday and it only took me 20 minutes, It was very easy to install. It is much better if you had a torque wrench that can handle 26 lbs ft as the gasket needs to be compressed just about enough. Wipe with WD40 before you start it up. On my bike, I didn't have to adjust the idle, it idle and started as if the oem pipes were installed.
I went on an hour ride to check if it's backfiring, luckily for me, it didn't but I can tell that a dyno tune would benefit from it as it seems like the power band has shifted.
The weight savings on this pipe is astronomical compared to the oem pipes. I chose to keep the silencer on, without the silencer, it's a bit too loud. It's mellow from 2-4k range, once you open it up, it will scream. Sounds very raw, that's the way I like it compared to others that sounds like the exhaust is hitting a pillow or a blanket of fibers.
