The Akrapovic Evolution System is the absolute cutting edge in exhaust
technology. Over a decade of track and dyno testing has brought
about the latest generation of this championship winning exhaust system.
The Evolution System is hand crafted out of the finest materials
available. Super lightweight, precision craftsmanship, and tremendous
horsepower gains characterize this system. Designed on the track
for the track, the Evolution system is the exact same exhaust you will
find on World Superbikes in the winner's circle. Available in Carbon
Fiber or Titanium cans.
Akrapovic Exhaust System Technology,
formerly known as Skorpion, has made it's mark in the current motorcycle
road racing world at the highest level. Igor Akrapovic, Owner/Chief
Design Engineer, chooses only the best integrating stainless steel,
titanium, and carbon fiber into each product.
Akrapovic's racing experience has
helped them to understand the needs of the technician, mechanic, and
racer alike. Akrapovic Exhaust System Technology is used exclusively
by five of the six manufacturers in World Superbike competition including,
Aprillia, Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, & Suzuki to deliver awesome power
for their race bikes. The innovations developed through long-term cooperation
with top race teams and Factory World Superbike Teams find their way
into every product. The unrelenting development coming from working
directly with factory racing teams drives them constantly forward.
Computerized Technology
Not only intuition and old fashioned hard work
play a part in development. Computer analysis of engine testing
results coupled with extensive race track testing play key roles.
The final testing data finds its way onto every exhaust by using
the most advanced machines and tooling during production.
Dynamometer testing carried out on the Dynojet Model 150 can show
up to a ten percent power increase, and a two-thirds weight reduction
over the standard (OEM) exhaust systems.
Hand Crafted Perfection in Metal
Each and every exhaust is meticulously
produced by a highly trained craftsman. Form follows function
while all components of the exhaust system are flawlessly assembled
into one clean, smooth-flowing design using the TIG welding technique
exclusively throughout. Great care is taken to integrate the exhaust
system technically to fit exactly with each individual motorcycle.
Each header system is precision TIG welded by hand in stainless
steel. Standard technology uses the less precise method of MIG
wire welding which leaves slag and uneven surfaces inside the
exhaust. Crossover tubes are included when needed, and all sections
are joined with a high quality spring system. The canister core
is stainless, with a choice of titanium or carbon fiber sleeves.
Lower quality materials are not an option.
For the serious competitor, the full race system is available
with tapered headers for efficient combustion chamber scavenging,
and crossover tubes for better drive out of the corners. The headers
are designed to focus maximum power at high RPM, the ideal for
racing machinery. Racing exhausts are available with titanium
elliptical canisters only.
