[@NYDStories]

What exhaust do you have?

[@Akio1407]

Akrapovic!

[@SunshineFML]

Step 1 after opening a box: Remove DB killer and throw it away.

[@gwilliamwallace]

Best modification you could make. I installed a Yoshimura system on my '14 CB1000R the first week few days after getting her home. It's amazing how much more in sync you are with the bike when you can hear what's going on.

[@KUKI_de]

nice video mate! Thumbs up 🔥

[@Dscarwash67]

Perfect sound ! ❤

[@aopeezy]

super helpful man, much appreciated !

[@FRCaars]

Nice sound

[@snap1966]

Looks like you left the baffle in. Still sounds great though. Easier on the valves if you leave it in. Great video, thanks.

[@tulligman]

You should have had installing new manifold gaskets the the new pipes could be seated properly as step 1.

[@yanierolivera4678]

How much lighter is the new system compared to the stock one? Sounds good!!

[@nikeroach]

niceee goodjob

[@grahamn311]

Great sounding exhaust, although the looks don't really do it for me (blasphemy, I know). For some reason, once you removed the headers my first thought was, fire it up! lol

[@vintagerealityvr]

I took the baffle off. I love it

[@vintagerealityvr]

@No_Name it's not that much louder under ~4k rpms (it's just a lot more bassy/low end) so it's not a problem riding in and out of my neighborhood. I have a video clip of the sound before and after if anyone is interested

[@mr.shield341]

@@vintagerealityvrhow did you take the db killer off

[@vintagerealityvr]

@@mr.shield341 it's pretty hard but also easy. unscrew the bolt holding the baffle in. go to home Depot and buy a few long threaded metal bars (thin enough to fit in the baffle hole, I have the 2x2 baffle so I had to go thin. go to the fittings aisle and find some combination of a a hook (half eye hook), nut, washer, etc that you'll be able to thread onto the metal bar, in order to insert into the baffle and "grab" the back of it ( I used a combination of a half eye hook and a nut and was able to hook on to the back/ inside of the baffle). then, You need to become a reverse impact hammer. You have to pull it out in hard short bursts over and over again until it starts to loosen and slide out. took me about 5 minutes of constant reverse impact hammering to be able to pull the baffle out with a pair of pliers. It's easier if you get a metal tube that you can put the threaded rod through, along with a stopper washer+nut that it could hit against. think about it like, You are holding the metal tube as a sleeve for The metal rod with one hand, And with the other hand sliding the rod and hook backwards through the tube to generate Force against a lock nut. It's pretty difficult to get out, But once it is out it can go in and out pretty easy. You aren't damaging anything it's just the metal is so tightly fit. that sounds like a lot of work, But it actually is pretty simple.

[@janzahoran9868]

did you try to remove db killer? is it difficult? it would be perfect next video :) good luck and wish you happy times on bike

[@NYDStories]

Heh, will try !

[@CorBor69]

@@NYDStories always hard to judge from videos but is it loud enough with the db killer in?

[@halash_gowda5127]

​@@CorBor69yes at low rpms it sounds like bassy stock but at higher rpms like say above 4 to 5 k it gets louder even with the db killer in .... not as loud as the Austin racing but pretty loud in general.... Austin racing , arrow - too loud Stock- too silent Akrapovic - sweet sound , medium loud with baffles in

[@marcinzdziech4518]

Great. What about tune? Is it require after exhaust replacement?

[@NYDStories]

Not to my knowledge

[@WaleAdeoye]

Hi thanks for this. Just did mine now but engine light came on. Any idea what could cause this?

[@NYDStories]

Oh man thats very sad :( perhaps something is not connecting or the sensor is loose, double check it.

[@WaleAdeoye]

@@NYDStories thank you. I'll check again

[@WaleAdeoye]

@@NYDStories just an update, I took out the battery for a day then refitted it. The CEL has now cleared. Thanks

[@nathanbiss4068]

do you have any kind of tune or map on the bike?

[@NYDStories]

This exhaust doesn’t require a remap, most do.

[@ikilljustkidding]

I just bought a 2022 cb650r. Did u get a tune after installing the akrapovic? I heard u have to get a tune if u put a full system or else its going to mess up the engine.

[@NYDStories]

No i did not, latest exhausts from Akropovich do not require a tune (this was written on their website for my specific exhaust), they dont provide ecu mapping. Most of the people still take the mapping from other exhaust and tune them up.

[@ikilljustkidding]

@@NYDStories oh because on their site it was only tested on a cb650F from 2017 so i wasnt sure if the cb650 needed an ecu remap

[@bobclavi]

my muffler dang near touches my swing arm. how in the hell do you guys have so much room

[@rosskennedy4795]

Install the same exhaust on a 2020, but my biggest issue was over tight fairing bolt which needed drilling out as easy-outs would work. A real pain and more time wasted.

[@NYDStories]

Weird, i did not have to drill anything to get this up and running.

[@rosskennedy4795]

@@NYDStories but all sorted now, bolt replaced. Common issue apparently, dealers using power driver to insert bolts and round off the head bit inserts. Exhaust now sounds sweet as.

[@gsm_liv8980]

How loud is the exhaust with DB killer compared to stock? Also does it affect fuel consumption or performance of the bike?

[@NYDStories]

Its louder and a different sound pattern than the stock, it also affects the power, I did not measure it on the dyno, but other riders did, with this exhaust and kn intake filter you are close to 100hp zone

[@mg1mg]

I’ve just installed a db killer into my bike after buying it without one. Idle is 91dB with it installed vs. 100dB removed. It’s also much bassier in sound. I’ll upload a video to my page to demonstrate the differences.

[@beauligsay4777]

Where did you get the exhaust?

[@NYDStories]

I purchased from Motorstarz Canada.

[@LordHurricaneHD]

Is the catalytic converter included?

[@NYDStories]

Nope, its optional and you need to get it separate to be euro 4 compliant.

[@MissMan666]

looks nice, but is not street legal in most EU countries. Some countries if stopped you wont be able to drive on from there with this exhaust.. :X

[@NYDStories]

Unless you add a Catalytic converter for EC approval

[@sauravbhandari8789]

What about united states? I have 650r and thinking of installation this one

[@wolfpack-1914]

Take the muffler out..Be a man..

[@TILL_OFARIM]

Ich finde es gut da sonst immer alle ohne DB killer Videos hochladen. Es gibt aber Länder in denen das verboten ist.
