How Akrapovič exhausts work in MotoGP™ 👀

[@markmark-k5u]

Akrapovic spends the most on R&D which is why they are the leading brand. When Nicky Hayden was racing in AMA his Honda was equipped with Akrapovic but the decals said Jardine because Jardine paid the team to advertise their exhaust. Same thing goes when Rossi was riding the Honda RC211 the exhaust said Polini when in fact it was Akrapovic. Polini again paid the team money to promote their brand, but Polini only makes exhaust for mopeds and scooters.

Yoshimura exhausts are out of the market, aren't they?

[@Guuggel]

Not that I've heard@@JohnKickboxing

[@A.J.1656]

Graves designed an exhaust for Josh Herrin in Moto2 and the team put it on Zarco's bike. lol

[@Floxiiik]

so if you are building a track bike, akra is the way to go? or for street as well?

[@markmark-k5u]

@@Floxiiik You can buy whatever you want. The name speaks for itself. Just look at the number of teams using Akrapovic in Motogp and World Superbike. There's a reason why they use it.

[@stevefowler2112]

As a Principal Aerospace Engineer with a large American defense contractor's Aero company known for, among other things, the two American frontline F planes I have a pretty good understanding of metallurgy. Assuming money is not a consideration, I don't understand why Akropovic doesn't manufacturer their GP exhausts using Inconel rather than Ti. They are roughly equivalent in weight given the thickness of both necessary to equal tensile strengths and inconel retains heat better than Ti, which is generally a positive on IC exhaust systems. If I am not wrong, I believe both F1 and NASCAR use iconel for their exhaust systems.

You didn't mention the crossover tubes.There was 2 in the picture.What is the explanation of those?

[@alanzirinovsky3469]

Formula 1 V10 N/A still the most loudest scream in motorsport. In this era engine can revs more than 18.000 rpm and making 145 decibel sound

[@BikesofRye]

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I am not keen on the V10/V12 F1 engine scream. Its too loud, and a high frequency sound that just isn't exactly pleasant.

Austin Racing offers that but I'm not to sure of any other motorcycle brands besides them! Hey I do know that its used on aircraft exhaust quite a bit but not so much on bikes!

Bro, any MotoGP fan knows this stuff. A novice could've written this. You missed a great opportunity to discuss how exhaust systems contribute to and influence performance, etc..

[@SOK314]

I'm quite sure both lenght, positioning and orientation of the exhaust pipes impact performances... but how?

Question: why not make a carbon fibre exhaust?

[@makantahi3731]

temperature

[@arijitchakrabarty1552]

@@makantahi3731 that was my first thought as well, but I googled it and saw that carbon fibre has a melting point of 2-3000°C?

[@makantahi3731]

@@arijitchakrabarty1552 but epoxy resin starts to become softer over 60-70C deg, maybe some high tech epoxy could stay hard at 200c, and some exhaust manufacturers make outer skin of muffler from cf because it is not hot, you will not see pipes made from cf composites

Akrapovic ne fait que du marketing, ne fait pas que ce que faisait a la grande époque du Sert le préparateur "authentique" Yoshimura dans les belles années que j'ai connu. arretez de me faire marrer avec cette marque qui n'existait pas a l'epoque car née en 1990 seulement pour faire bander les propriétaires de Porsche et autre Lambo pleins de fric qu'un nom "exotique" pouvait exciter. il fut un temps ou nous pouvions gagner avec du "Deville" fabriqué en haute Savoie ou du "Yoshimura" authentique fabriqué au japon que nous recevions en caisse, pas avec les rois du marketing.... le gros du probleme c'est qu'aujourd'hui, il n'y a plus qu'eux....

[@korinostream]

My bike costs 2.80lacs₹ and akrapovic says the new exhaust will alone cost me 50k 😅

[@gs.topgun]

I don’t understand that ducati and honda both of them are using V4 then why ducati has more speed?

[@ermannosorricchiodivalfort4905]

what kind of question is that? you and me are both human beings, does it mean we have the same running speed?

[@joshuarenacia694]

because the other one is tuned to make more power?

[@pathosdivision]

Lots of factors contribute to overall speed, not just engine design. Even if both bikes used the exact same v4 engine, the chassis can make a huge difference in how that power is applied to the ground. Look at Yamaha from this year, it was well known that they made their engine much more powerful but they had major issues with rear grip making all that extra power useless. Moto2 is another example with all the teams using spec engines from Triumph, but are able to run a couple of different chassis designs leading to differences in performance.

[@luqman8193]

Different engine type honda v4 ducati v4 90 degree

[@jaford2]

Because Ducatis are RED, of course.

[@A.J.1656]

I thought it was like how all the riders are always drinking water from bottles labeled with addictive unhealthy energy drinks for the money. Aren't we just pretending the exhausts are manufactured by different brands so they can sell exhaust pipes?

[@swarlordt9673]

shame that motogp started to go woke just like f1 with the synthetic fuel so theres not much sound from the exhaust even moto 2 makes more noise
