    bought an 08-11 akrapovic full system and did not realise there are 2 different types, abs and non abs. I have an abs and they came of a bike without abs so i've not even bothered trying to fit them.
    it is the stainless system with carbon can, i payed £750 for it and would like back as much as i can as i need the money to buy another one (for abs)

    Not sure what the difference is looking at the two, all I can say is I have fitted no ABS systems to ABS bikes? Not an Akra mind but a Leo and an Arrow.

    They are exactly the same system. You can mount it and vice versa.

    You don't need to buy another

    This is an email I got today

    Good Morning,

    I have been passed your email from Akrapovic as we are the UK importer for their motorcycle products.

    The header pipes and Collector are different between the ABS and Non ABS models, I believe it is the ABS pump which fouls the Non ABS header pipes ( S-H10R6L system).

    The ABS system, S-H10R7-TC or TT, is the system you require.

    Kind Regards,

    Paddy

    It absolutely will not fit unless I remove the abs pump, akra quoted me £350+vat for the right headers and £140+vat for the collector and a 4 week wait. No thanks! I could have bought it new and saved money

    Back up for sale :mad:

    Anyone have abs headers on a non abs bike and want to swap? :confused:
