Anyone know where I should start looking for part numbers etc on an Akra system. My 07 came with a full system fitted and I am trying to figure out which one it is. I currently have the fairings off so hopefully will be easy to figure it out if I know where to look. If it's the system I think it is I may put it up for sale to raise some much need pennies.
It is same as this: Akrapovic Racing Full Exhaust (Hex) System- Honda CBR1000RR (2006-2007) - Akrapovic Exhaust - Exhaust - Motorcycle Exhaust - MotorcycleToyStore - Motorcycle Accessories and Motorcycle Gear In which case the site says the code is AKRZ93 When you're ready to sell, can you let me know the price? Would go very nicely with my end can!!!
More like this one. Don't know if it is stainless or Ti though, so need to know on the pipes/headers where to check for part numbers. Don't want to take it all off to weigh in Akrapovic Evolution Full Exhaust (Hex) System- Honda CBR1000RR (2006-2007) - Akrapovic Exhaust - Exhaust - Motorcycle Exhaust - MotorcycleToyStore - Motorcycle Accessories and Motorcycle Gear
I think you could only get that type of end can as titanium so makes sense the full system is titanium and I think there are some numbers on the tailpipe where the exhaust goes in on the right side if you could let me know when your selling as im on the look out to buy one
just because the can is Ti,doesn't mean the headers are,or even link pipe. the colour will be your best indication,hazey blue should mean it's Ti.
Cheers folks. Looks like it may well be a Ti system. Will have to do the voltage test next time I am working near the headers.
Basically aluminium (I think) and titanium will create a micro-voltage when the are put together, especially when aided by a saline solution. It's the same reaction that people prevent with copaslip etc, but in this case it can be used to identify titanium. Read about it on a cycling forum.
Post a pic of the headers, soon tell you what they are, SS does blue but not like Ti, weight wise they are way different but as mounted not an option, I weighed a full SS and Ti system from an RR7 and it was near 2K lighter, the cans as said are all Ti, carbon and Ti sleeve weigh the same. If it's clean and tidy they can fetch good money, I have someone who may well buy it from you.
Not the greatest of pics as I just shoved the phone inside the fairings, but hopefully you may be able to tell.
Sorry mate, if they are mint SS they go for 600-750+, Ti can go for 600-1200 now for a mint one, they stopped making the last ones in 2007 they had the new logo on the can and head shield, the older hex systems had the old rounded scorpion logo, I sold a SS full system polished on eBay two or three years ago for 950 (iirc) the cans are not the same as the slip on as some people think so full systems are kind of unique, a poor qual SS would make 450-550ish. You can not get them easy, that system of yours would polish up. Polished up you could get around 600-700 mark Id say for a well used system.
Thanks again Arthur. Contract end next month and if nothing comes up before hand I will strip them off and get busy with the Autosol
