Full Akrapovic (Raceline) fitted to my 09
« on: November 04, 2009, 12:21:36 PM »

Hi Guys

Bought an Akrapovic full system off Ebay

Genuine Kawasaki marked on the can & the box which was a bonus  :icon_thumright:

Not much fun to fit (anyone who has tried without removing the radiator will know)

Now need to get the PCV set up on the rollers and i can see what difference it makes

Would prefer a Carbon can but at the price i payed i can't complain (will make more when i sell it when i replace the 10R  ;-)

Regards
Rick

Hi WAZhalo31

It's a RaceFit hangar mate.

sort of happy with the hanger
(Rant Mode on!)  Annoying part is it comes with a really nice lower fitting bolt and nut but sadly no fittings to the top which the holes are too small for the std "shouldered" footrest hanger bolts ! (Rant Mode off!)

But it's perfect otherwise  :icon_thumright:

Regards
Rick

Hi Horse

It's not a biggy mate. (I'm just a fussy bugger)  :emb:

Just had no spare 8mm button heads laying around.

it's a quality hanger mate  :icon_thumleft:

they just need to supply 2x 8x30mm button heads or drill out the holes to 10mm so the shouldered bolts fit
but saying that it would look better with some nice 8mm button heads like they give you for the can fitting end  ;-)

Rick
