Premium Member scottygat Posted June 9, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 9, 2015 I've been going back and forth between the Akrapovic and the Two Brothers. But the akrapovic just sounds so much more deep and aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the akrapovic just sounds so much more deep and aggressive.Honestly the vid does it no justice, it just sounds down right deep and nasty in person! 2015 fz-07 akrapovic exhaust 2015 ktm 500 xc-w dirt/supermoto tire and wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member GAZ Posted June 10, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 10, 2015 It definitely sounds even better in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member yamahappy74 Posted June 10, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 10, 2015 Is there a difference in sound between the Akrapovic Carbon and the Ti? Because in the videos I've seen, I feel like I like the sound of the carbon better but almost everyone seems to be getting the Ti. I also prefer the look of the carbon on liquid graphite.

Premium Member so1102 Posted June 10, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 10, 2015 I'm trying to figure out if there is truly $200 worth of difference between the Ti and the Carbon ones myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmwpowere36m3 Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 The titanium version is EPA/ECE/CE approved when used with the optional CAT insert and it looks more like a factory exhaust. Is it worth $200 more... depends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thestache Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 I've been going back and forth between the Akrapovic and the Two Brothers. But the akrapovic just sounds so much more deep and aggressive.I think it is just a matter of preference, I have the Two Brothers, and think the same thing about it as you said about the Akro...this is the video that got me hooked on Two Brothers [video src=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbbRGfMMKxw] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r6realtor Posted June 10, 2015 Author Share Posted June 10, 2015 for me it was definitely sound first off and then the look, I love how both sides of the bike look even now because the exhaust is kind of hidden under the bike. 2015 fz-07 akrapovic exhaust 2015 ktm 500 xc-w dirt/supermoto tire and wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamobethere Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 r6, where did you buy your exhaust from? Revzilla has been OOS for what seems like forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member yamahappy74 Posted June 11, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 11, 2015 I've noticed that too. It seems like Revzilla doesn't restock popular items often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r6realtor Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 This is the video that got me looking at the Akrapovic system. Almost seems as if he has the cat installed still inside the mid to head pipe? I could be wrong and the vid just may mess with the sound but i feel like mine sounds so much deeper in person? Again could just be the vid that makes it sound a little raspy instead of deep once he hits the higher rpms, either way i absolutely love the sound of this exhaust! ! 2015 fz-07 akrapovic exhaust 2015 ktm 500 xc-w dirt/supermoto tire and wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member scottygat Posted June 12, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted June 12, 2015 Where is the cat typically installed? I'll be ordering mine next week and I was wondering about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r6realtor Posted June 12, 2015 Author Share Posted June 12, 2015 Mine didn't even come with one but it goes between the mid and head pipe I believe. it shows you on the direction but again mine didn't even come with one and I would not have put it in if it did come with one anyway. 2015 fz-07 akrapovic exhaust 2015 ktm 500 xc-w dirt/supermoto tire and wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
