Step by Step How to remove the silencer from a Euro 5 Akrapovič

[@FASTU-mz3tm]

ONLY ONE MISTAKE, you left the db killer holes open, exhaust fumes will exit into the carbon fiber cone, its better to plug them, just a flat bolt going in from the hole out and a nut outside to hold it. Then it be perfect 😉😉😉😉😉

[@bmano7850]

Wow. Thankyou so much. I will be doing this when I get my exhaust 🙏🏼

[@teamg9020]

Thank you very much for such a great instruction. I hope that this procedure will reverse the process of "euro castration" of motorization 😜 in Europe.

[@mattyb7736]

The fact the db insert has the bolts welded and hidden under a riveted on cap sort of indicates that its been designed that way. Miles got the insert retaining nuts easily accessible.

[@rank1adv]

Yea it’s not really welded. Somehow deep inside the people designed it wanted to follow regulations but also didn’t want to make it hard to remove 😂😊

[@Viper090674]

If you do that much trouble why not put black rivets back in, it would look more oem again

[@TheBenupton]

Any chance you weighed the silencer before and/or after removing the db killers?

[@Texas2Tires]

Great video, thanks for sharing. I have an RS with the same black Titanium Akrapovic exhaust you have. I'm considering getting new headers without the CAT and potentially removing the baffles. However, I thought removing the baffles would be too troublesome. You made it look easy. Can you share the drill bit and rivet sizes? Are you still enjoying the sound? Thank you.

[@rank1adv]

Thanks for stopping by! I am not too sure for the size I just lay one on top and show that it was the exact same diameter as the rivers. The sound is something that you need to text for yourself and check if you like it. It’s definitely louder and engine sounds very a lot. Cheers!

[@seanconery8836]

You may remove only one baffle, not both. Sound will be always better than genuine, for sure.

[@Garib_Man]

Can you remove the db killer of Hayabusa's euro 5 akrapovic slip on exhausts like this??

[@prodromospartheniou639]

I didn’t expect to see Akrapovic weldments unclean and black ..

[@TheReelDmak]

Any idea what size drill bit you used and what size the replacement rivets were ?

[@TheAleCheck]

The drill bit size for any standard rivet is always 4mm diameter. Looking at the video, I believe that the rivets he installed are standard aluminum rivets, usually the length changes a little (which varies depending on the thickness you need to rivet), but even if they were a little longer than necessary, you can use anyway and you will just have to pull a little more with the riveter..

[@LiquidCooler]

Thank you a lot! I did the same on mine and thanks to you it was super easy!

[@emiliofco.garciaeugenio9094]

Hello ...... I bought that same exhaust. The sound is louder / hoarse than the sound of the Akrapovic that is sold in Bmw. Yours also sounds louder than the Akrapovic on sale at BMW

[@rank1adv]

Hi there! That is correct. I have a friend of mine that the Akra that came with the bike from BMW and mine was way louder without the baffles on. Thanks for watching!

[@emiliofco.garciaeugenio9094]

I tell you with the installed db killers that this exhaust makes more noise than the akrapovic that sells Bmw, both with the db killers installed. Is this correct?

[@rank1adv]

No I think with the db killer it’s the same I heard both without the db killer and mine was significantly louder

[@jpfourie1]

Well done awesome sound!!!!!!!

[@siamdarkweldertigwelding5874]

Thanks for the great show ! good job

[@brettkoski]

I've been looking into doing this for my '23 R1250RS Akrapovic exhaust, but the carbon cap on mine doesn't have any of the rivets you drilled out. I continue to be baffled (pun intended) on how to get the true Akra noise from my $1000 USD exhaust... Mine is barely louder than stock.

[@rank1adv]

Hey Brett thanks for stopping by and also subscribing. Much appreciated Sir. I ‘ve heard that there is a way to drill the carbon from the inside to get access to a screw that holds the silencer in place. Akra also sells a little rubber insert to block that hole after. Maybe something to look at 😉 safe rides

[@brettkoski]

@@rank1adv Awesome, I will look into it! Be safe as well!

[@motorjack141]

Probably should have put back the 2 bolts so exhaust doesn't leak into the inner carbon cover.

[@rank1adv]

I did consider putting them on but the fumes come out so fast that there is no chance to go through those holes.

[@FASTU-mz3tm]

no way of putting them back on, they screw into the db killer, i plugged mine with 2 short flat bolts and to nuts, then its all good..............

[@svbluewatersuite3383]

Cooool. ❤👌🤘🙋🏽‍♂️

[@bonwana2275]

Thanks for your video. Good quality video and very nice music too. I was curious if you broke any drill bits? I wouldn't have done that job without clamping it down before drilling.

[@rank1adv]

Thank you so much I appreciate you watching. No I didn’t brake any drill bits and yea clumping it down would definitely help no damaging/being more stable. I was lucky and I didn’t scratch the exhaust

[@reinhardtkk]

Wonder if this will work on my new gs1300 Akropovic?

[@caledonianbiker]

Hi there if you need anything about fitting an Akrapovic Slip on Exhaust or the full race system please visit my KZbin channel Caledonian Biker l have a full race and Akra on my R1300GS

[@dallas7390]

Naughty

[@serpadu]

Hey, what is the internal diameter on the muffler exit with and without the db killer? I have a Mivv muffler with a single exit hole, and I wonder if the sectional area is larger on the Akrapovic with dual holes.My db killer seems to reduce a lot the diameter.

[@rank1adv]

I am not too sure about the exact diameter but I can tell you that when you remove the db killer it’s almost empty in there 😂. I think that what the db killer does anyways it reduces the diameters which restricts the way the air exits and makes it quieter.

[@soda5730]

Why not just drill two holes in the carbon and remove the two screws. You can cover the holes with the Akra rubber plugs and then have the ability to replace the remove the baffles whenever you need.

[@rank1adv]

You are not wrong you can absolutely do that I just didn’t want to drill the carbon for something I want be doing often anyways.

[@ehiggins7476]

True, a lot of unnecessary steps when you can drill two holes in under 5 minutes and have the ability to put the db killers back whenever you need to

[@TheLakoG]

But how would you be able exactly position the holes with carbon cover on? I thinking to drill the two holes in carbon but I guess I will need to drill the rivets and remove the carbon first?

[@flaviolaignier7322]

Thanks, obrigado..... muito fácil

[@LaResistenciaEDC]

Reading : silencer and euro 5 in the same sentence gives me anxiety already 😂

[@sonmusique3946]

Merciiii ❤🎉🎉🎉

[@penatom]

Quel rivet avez vous utilisé ? Si vous avez une référence à me donner svp ?

[@motoptv]

Rivet de 3

[@merlinbast8720]

verry good

[@ae8920]

the wrong and too small rivets. It has to be a stainless type an 1 mm bigger, also a type without through-hole = gas-tight

[@evgeny114]

So loud! What is the reason to produce more noise?

[@Copinal]

Feel the power! ;)

[@FASTU-mz3tm]

so IDIOT DRIVERS will hear the bike and know some one is around, many drive scratching their nuts and pay no attention

[@dcsworldiran]

can I send you mine and you do it for mine ? (I’ll pay)

[@mr.poseidon6247]

And it all means nothing without full akrapovič pipes... With no katalizator and no exup valve.

[@richymoto]

@@rank1adv Germany, Switzerland, Austria … and in France there are roads, where there is a max. noise-level in place, that is getting controlled

[@dpadap2878]

Ja jezdím do Německa normálně bez DB killeru a žádnej problém. Viděl jsem jezdit borce s HD a ty tam měli jenom svody bez koncovek a jezdili i do Švýcarska na srazy. Motorka by měla být slyšet. Svět patří těm, co se neposerou...

[@berse504]

Le cose dei vecchi rivetti le hai lasciate dentro ? Poi senza foro di servizio nel coperchio in carbonio hai richiuso tutto ? Naaa non ci credo...che lavoraccio

[@williamcoulter5462]

Just never visit Germany France Spain Austria or they will take the bike off you if they even suspect you have tampered with it.

[@rank1adv]

I will like to see them try.

[@TomislavReskovic]

Take plates down or confiscate bike?

[@User_cc]

No problem without db killer. Only in alps

[@galaxykai]

@@rank1advItaly will take them and sell it for their own. Everyone knows this. Don’t trust me? So, well, see you in Alps! 😎🤣

[@HarleyDavidsonGlide]

Wenn sie dich in Deutschland zb. anhalten dann ist dein Motorrad stillgelegt. dB Killer etwas bearbeiten und wieder rein damit, viel besser.

[@bandit229]

Selbst das bekommen sie spitz. 😊

[@danimal7067]

Why make it louder. Really

[@petermcgarva7207]

It’s more about getting the most out of the exhaust we spent a considerable amount of money to buy. It gives the proper sound and performance gains, not the government restricted version. This is how they should, and use to sound before regulations.

[@AC-iy1ov]

Cause it’s more civilized.

[@Guimadark]

It's not just because the noise becomes more beautiful, it's also because by removing the dbkiller the bike will be less strangled and will gain a few more hp.

[@mattyb7736]

​@@Guimadarkonly if you alter the fuelling to compensate for the increased flow, otherwise it will run leaner.
