NEW Exhaust for our 2023 BMW M1000RR! | M1000RR Series Part 8

[@Motomillion]

Full titanium Arrow header is ON! What do you guys think? Do we keep the stock Akrapovic muffler? Or switch it up with a new slip-on? Let us know! 👇

[@Pushin-P007]

SWITCH IT UP TO ARROW

[@Motomillion]

In a future video! 👀

[@rrydinhigh2452]

I would def keep the STOCK AK muffler. It's a beautiful, well designed piece.

[@lordgibbness]

Sound level is perfect just like this. And looks good too

[@luciandickens2418]

In my opinion everyone is going to scrap the oem muffler for a shorty. But if you keep it. It's going to be different... So I say keep the oem akra Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@PaulBarurot]

That color transition of the headers! Crisp! Props to the camera man for the great angle! :D

[@Motomillion]

Thank you Paul!

Akrapovic exhaust with Arrow headers sounds the best🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Motomillion]

Sounds pretty good!

[@matthewchevres4970]

Titanium is the way to go imo. I installed graves works link full titanium exhaust, graves block off plates, P08 filter, graves VE2 velocity stacks, lithium ion lightweight battery, and Chris Moore ecu flash and wow whole new bike & sound. Massively notice the weight reduction after new part installation on 23" ZX6R

[@Motomillion]

For sure. A nice exhaust and a good tune are the biggest mods for any bike. Completely transforms the riding experience

[@ravenmoto5948]

As far as i know Moore cant tune the New BMWs

[@matthewchevres4970]

@ravenmoto5948 you may be right, i know he uses woolich software for most tunes. At mercy of software i believe, he will eventually if that's your choice of tuner

[@MRR-qv3bw]

It blows me away every time I install a new titanium exhaust that bag of hardware always feel heavier than headers/mid pipe together! Its insane how much physical weight you can remove off a bike these days using ANY of the systems you offer on your site! I've ordered and installed 8 different exhaust systems personally off your site and even comparing the Akrapovic Evo system to the Akrapovic Racing Line SS system we couldn't tell them apart besides the color difference! I think I've ordered one of every single system besides that SC-PROJECT SC1 R full system for the K66-K67 and the quality is always been superb! Love the build Mani!

[@daveo9844]

I’d be happy running the stock muffler. Looks great 😎🍻

[@Motomillion]

You and me both!

[@kowalski2334]

It's actually a brilliant idea to keep the oem muffler and just change the headers. The oem muffler looks perfect on this machine, I would have done it the same way 👌👌

[@Motomillion]

It does look very good, but with this combo, we can always switch things around if we get bored of it, which is always great!

[@avon2alpha676]

Yes that’s a big game changer cause I love the way muffler look. Now it’s time for me to order just the headers

[@Nahyoutrippin]

All that weight gone. Especially on the R1 converters

[@Motomillion]

Big weight savings!

[@AllanReinemund]

I ordered Arrow header and mid-pipe today, as in this video, for my '23 M1000R competition. I will also re-use stock muffler-. Mine has the BrenTune stage 1- Tune which helped the sound some but enough to match the character of the rest of this bike

[@racermac1081]

It looks and sounds awesome. I would leave it like that. Do the flash and take it to the dyno, you will be amazed by the power that stock muffler is making. I've got a 2022 model S1000RR with only the silencer box removed and the power gains were shocking.

[@Motomillion]

We'll definitely dyno the stock muffler!

[@thewandererog]

That looks totally sick , kudos to you motomillion

Thank you! It will shift more with some more heat!

[@alishfitness]

That's what I am planning to do with my "24 S1000RR, thank you for this video! Answred the question regarding the sound.

[@Motomillion]

No problem 👍 You can find the Arrow headers and much more here : www.motomillion.com/collections/bmw-s1000rr-23/exhausts

[@BarryAllen-pd1jv]

I think you can try a bunch of different mufflers and see if they result in any power gain/loss

[@Motomillion]

Yeah, that's something we would love to test out! Would make for an interesting video

[@MrStair308]

I think a shorter muffler would look better and expose the rear wheel a bit more. Sounded good for a stock muffler though. Austin racing GP1R would have been my choice.

[@Motomillion]

I am pretty sure we will be changing the muffler in the future. We were actually curious to see how the stock muffler sounds with a header, and were pleasantly surprised!

[@rrydinhigh2452]

Looks 👀, and sounds 🙉 just fine, Many👍🏽👍🏽. You guys did a fantastic job. I only WISH I was close to your shop, so I could bring in my '23 XR and have ya'll set me up, proper 👌🏽.

[@Motomillion]

Thank you. Maybe one day!

[@Veterans-e2c]

I did that to my 2024 s1000rr. Holy crap it has like an inline 4 sound but it doesn’t a lot of bass like a v4 maybe or R1.

[@alexatanasovski4945]

Would love to see and hear the mid length Akra with the baffle removed (B10SO10-ZC and S-B10SO16-HZC)

[@Motomillion]

It's a great system! 650ib has it on his 2023 S1000RR Build bike

[@EtaSoon777]

I like the stock muffler. The mount to rearset Vs the hangar bracket off rear subframe; -Transmits less vibration W/ the rubber isolation grommet W/ stock rearsets or Giles etc. - Looks cleaner 🤙 Me likely. The kinda details you only are led to by doing it a few times. Curious if you have any input on the white Akrapovic ceramic joint grease supplied with Akrapovic Titanium Evolution full system? The main instruction do not make any mention about it?! But the little paper with grease says your not ready for step 1 until all joints are greased! Huh? How many caught that after system was installed? Quite a few I’d guess. Less vibration if used? Not a issue if not done? Akrapovic representative said “optional” when I pointed out it should be detailed in main 26 page instructions if required. No biggie if optional but the verbiage “not ready to install until ALL joints are greased!” Mind that reverberation which can suck excess grease into engine and detonate your power plant😮 Read the paper folded into tiny square with white ceramic grease if you want to 😅 If so critical Akra could do it before shipping if dead pony is result of incorrect amount. Would make head joint slip on much easer if guess? It’s a tight fit fo sho when you shove em in dry! 😂

[@mauricioramirez1456]

This is a great option, rather that buying the entire exhaust. I will pick my 2024 S1000rr with the M package, and the optional carbon fiber wheels in a couple of days. Can’t wait to get rid of that ugly and restrictive cat and silencer.

[@theoldmanonasportbike]

You make it look so easy. Did you install a servo buddy to eliminate any error codes?

[@Motomillion]

Yes. Servo buddy : www.motomillion.com/collections/bmw-s1000rr-23/products/servobuddy-42-2757-exhaust-valve-eliminator-for-bmw-s1000rr

[@utuber4u1]

Lovely mod!! What about manufacturing a part to fit the the exhaust where the sever motor is located so you can remove the server motor install the part keep the factory exhaust with server motor and catalytic removed .

[@Motomillion]

The servo motor does not help much, these bikes have the shift cam system which retains a lot of low end torque. They make more low end torque than a Panigale V4.

[@utuber4u1]

I know you have the contacts and ability to make aftermarket mods , like you did to be hang the exhaust for the Ducati . So you can design a mod so they can remove the servo motor and catalytic and install the mod in that space and have the factory exhaust system with servo and catalytic removed .

[@abhinavbose8429]

stock muffler sounds awesome! what more with a slip-on?

[@Motomillion]

Yes, that stock Akrapovic muffler sounds killer! We'll be experimenting with the slip ons to see which sounds best to our ears

[@Oggyzd]

Love the sound! I actually have the same combo on my S1000RR, just in reverse...Akra header + Arrow Pro Race muffler. Epic sounds!

[@JoeShep71]

Thanks. Was deciding between stock can or gp akro.... think I'll def start off with stock. Looks great and sounds great !!! Can't wait for the dyno video. Hopefully you'll compare arrow and akro headers

[@Motomillion]

It maybe a little hard to swap headers for the dyno, but the dyno numbers we do are very consistent and we should be able to comment on the power differences. But in all honesty both brands are pretty equal in terms of power gains.

[@JoeShep71]

[@Motomillion]

Mid-length!

[@shizi]

Sounds wicked. Not sure what the exact word to use but, there's a certain growl on that exhaust which I really like. Tho the different header and can brand ticks my ocd but it's cool 😅🤙 Looking forward for the next episode!

[@Motomillion]

The brands aren't really stamped on the headers but I understand where you are coming from. Although they are both great brands, this doesn't mean we may not ditch the Akra can for an SC Project or a Arrow muffler later on.

(my comment is not in the video) when I first saw the high mount exhaust of the ducati SP2 I was not a fan of it but after a while it was ok now if I have a ducati I will put it on the exhaust

[@JustaS1krr]

Do I need the servo buddy on my 2023? Or can I go without it? Just got my new exhaust and people are saying I do and don’t need it as long as I don’t unplug the servos

[@Motomillion]

I specifically mention this on the video. If it is a US bike you don’t.

[@pugs8406]

What are your thoughts on shorter mufflers? Like the SC Project ones or Austin Racing ones? Curious since I think majority of the ones you guys use are long mufflers. The stock stock muffler sounds sick already 😂

[@Motomillion]

We think they're great! However, they are significantly louder 😂 We'll be testing different slip-ons with our Arrow header, so we'll definitely have a shorty muffler on at some point

[@agentofchaos1055]

would love to see the Arrow Competition Low on this one. Sounds gnarly and definitely looks different. 🔥🔥🔥 great video nonetheless, Manny. 👌 excited to see the next video regarding bmw exhausts.

[@Motomillion]

The Arrow Competition exhausts sounds amazing. 650ib has an Arrow on his M1000RR, and it sounds so good. This was a very tough choice for us, which is why we went with the Arrow header. We'll be able to swap the slip-ons until we find the perfect one to suit our tastes!

Sounds nice! Question, have you installed an Arko header on either S1000RR or previous year M1000RR and if so what is the difference between Akro vs. Arrow headers in terms of sound and power and which do you prefer?

[@Motomillion]

Sound and power are extremely similar. Go with the brand you like. Arrow titanium header is slightly lighter and is more cost effective. The sound is usually determined by the muffler you have on there.

[@ravenmoto5948]

The Akra price increase has put it over the top. The Arrow is so much cheaper these days.

[@ravenmoto5948]

According to Akrapovic the Ti headers are 4.9 lbs

They definitely are not 4.9lbs with all the hardware to install. We will weight it when we have some time in our hands.

[@Motomillion]

We keep certain brands only because they have done a lot of R&D before they release a product. This is mainly because they are technical partners of some major race teams which they develop these products for. Not willing to compromise on stuff like this to put on other name brands just for the sake of being different. An exhaust system is not just a series of bent pipes, there is a lot more to it than that.

[@summit3809]

Any point of getting a full system when this already has a muffler and you can just buy headers?

[@Motomillion]

It all depends on what sound you want out of your bike. On our M1000RR, we did the Arrow header with the OEM Akrapovic muffler, and later upgraded to the SC Project SC1-R Slip On. We have yet to do a dyno comparison between mufflers, but it is something we plan to do to truly see the difference in power
