[@jjmax2007]

Oh awesome ur gonna love the new sound feel and power of thw bike

[@rhemyis]

After watching many videos with instalation of different aftermarket exhaust I concluded that the cost of these full exhaust systems are worth only if you run the motorcycle without db-killer + remap and you benefit from a sport, rasp, deep sound that makes you feel you ride a true sport motorcycle. With the db-killer in the sound is a little better than stock and I don't think I would spend almost a grand for just a little better. The weight reduction though is consistent, this is quite a good benefit.

[@jjmax2007]

True.... I feel the same way but please keep this in mind if your considering one..... LOUD PIPES do not save lives.... practice, quality gear dose Cheers

[@andyk4688]

Loud pipes make a huge difference if someone changes lanes on you or not. Sorry but I’m 52 years old and been riding since I was 16. Many bike with and without loud pipes. Huge difference!

[@jjmax2007]

oh wow i am no where near close to your riding experience.... thats for sure... and as some may see on my channel all the bikes i owned not including just one of them all had loud pipes i started to see how loud pipes didn't help with the one bike that didn't have loud pipes cars was still the same ya know hey cheers to many more years on two wheels

[@koofdome]

Make sure you do a PAIR valve delete along with a proper dyno tune now with the aftermarket exhaust on any bike. Also, I would always wear gloves when doing an exhaust install. Oils from your skin will etch into the pipes when they warm up. Leaves basically Permanent finger prints

[@jjmax2007]

I can't find a pair valve block off for this bike.. I looked umm I was thinking PCV cause tuning shop where I live are costly and dont know many tuning shops other places. On gloves your right I did wipe the exhaust with rubbing solution to keep the oils away.... thanks for the heads up

[@koofdome]

JJMAX2007 awesome! That was one mistake I made on my first bike I ever owned, had oil from my finger prints etched into the dam pipes. That was annoying to look at. I'm always looking for a set of valves, it seems the only available ones are from eBay at about $35. Im going to try contacting some manufacturers or machine shops to see if they can laser cut/water jet cut some plates for me!

Oh wow that would be so dope.... if u ever get some made send me a link I would purchase a set and put the link of where I got it on my channel if u like.... cheers

[@MissMan666]

No ECU tune to compensate for the changes ? it's really worth getting, you are spending somewhere around 20% the cost of the exhaust system on a custom map and that custom map is what actually improves the throttle respons, improves power and ride. The exhaust is great looking, but really does nothing good for how the bike runs, besides sound ofc.

[@jamesschaffer5504]

If you do this, do not remove the silencer as the bike loses a few hurse purrs from the lack of backpressure. Also, yes if you do this, you absolutely should install a Power Vision and get it dyno tuned, otherwise you're pretty much just gimping your bike to make it sound slightly better. However, a good tuner should be able to get you at least a 10% hrspr improvement (personally got 11.25%).

The allen screw in my Akrapovic on my CBR650R literally took no effort at all to unscrew. It was tack welded but it was the smallest tack and I cracked it free with one turn. Then it unscrewed all the way perfectly. I used EnglishBikerDan's technique of pushing a threaded rod up inside the DB killer and banged away at the back of it until it came free. Such a shame you had to go through that whole ordeal to get it out.

[@jjmax2007]

Just a question, how did you got your indicators to be lit all the time? I really want this for my CBR650R. Thank you

It's only available in the US. European models don't have the option. You can tell because there are only 2 wires going to the indicators of the European version (I have a UK CBR650R). The US version has three wires which keeps them lit like daytime running lights. Contrary to this, the European CB650R has the indicators on all the time as it's the 'naked' version so provides more visibility.

What do you mean with 'how much maintenance that high performance air filter requires'? Every how often do you have to clean it out using compressed air?

[@jjmax2007]

Lol oh snap

[@BramVanhautte]

@@jjmax2007 What exactly do you mean? :p

[@jjmax2007]

Ok so I would ride for 800 miles then have to clean cause of the filter oil this stuff is very sticky and will catch the smallest of dirt and build on that stuff so fast.... if your not careful this dirt and oil will build so much it can clog then there is a restriction of air cause the bike to idle funny or run hot..... i don't even way 800 miles I do it like 300 or 400 miles at the most.... just saying..... cheer and sorry for the delay

Where did you get the paddock spools front and rear?

[@jjmax2007]

I got it from Amazon a long time ago mean 2017 the brand is venom

[@ObtecularPk]

What wrench you got? possible links to that wrench or any good ones? Also the part that fits on the wrench that is used to unscrew the bolts

[@jjmax2007]

I ended up using a grind bit to remove the welded bolt and as you see in the video a small hammer and pliers to get the DB killer out...

Hey jjmax, if i put on this exhause do i have to ecu flash it ? Or just leave it be ? Im looking foward to your answer

[@jjmax2007]

If u put any exhaust I recommend some type of turning to the bike either power commander or ecu flash the air flow is different

Hey JJMAX! I got the same bike and same full system and today I decided to take out the baffler, which I have failed to finish. You mentioned using curved jaw pliers and bang the crap out of it, where on the pilers did you bang it on? how long did that take you? please help!!

Hey, why did you get rid of the CBR650R? I'm curious because I plan on getting the bike in the next couple of months. In your opinion, what's the pros and cons of the CBR650R?

[@jjmax2007]

Nothing is wrong with the bike I recommend the bike to anyone.... pros everything easy to work on is to get parts for easy to service 😌 great power and ease to ride cons maybe a weak front rim but that is for speed lol

[@mshams1983]

Just ordered mine today. I'm wondering if I'll be able to do the install as well. I'm wondering if I should install without the DB. Once installed do you think the DB can be removed? Also with the little hole in the exhaust does it have to be sealed back up or you can leave the hole there

[@mshams1983]

Same bike by the way

[@jjmax2007]

Yea yea you can always take it out it's just you have to take the muffler off the bike in order to do so.... some may not like the task.... just saying. I would say try it with it in cause the way I took mine out I can not put mine back lol

[@jjmax2007]

Oh oh awesome I know ur gonna like the bike...

[@mshams1983]

@@jjmax2007 yea ill ride with it in, see what it sounds like. I'm sure it's much better than the stock exhaust. Please post up the difference when you get the power commander. I will be doing my exhaust install in about 2 weeks. Would love to know the difference with the proper tuning.

my akra full in coming in a little over two weeks. CANT WAIT. just gottta ask, is there extra parts i need to buy? like gaskets or seal rings or bolts and whatnot? or does akra provide everything you need? ALSO, so far from what ive seen on your video...you need a 5mm hex head, 10mm socket, 12 mm socket and sort of long hook to reattach the springs
