It is a gold covered material not actual gold. It runs $54 for a 14" x 27" sheet.

Do you guys heat shield the fuel lines and loom too? This is DEI stuff?

 

[RidersDiscount]

We do the air box and tank and have a different wrap on the loom and fuel lines. This isn't DEI however is a very similar product.

 

[Beeglowbot]

ahh ok, gotcha.

Nice shot of the titanium exhaust after it had a little heat.

That looks purdy :thumbup:

But I have one question, the rubber covers on your springs still look like they are brand new. The rubber on mine seemed to have melted away. I thought it was a little odd but figured it wasn't terribly unexpected due to how close they are to the exhaust.

Is it normal for the rubber covers on the springs to melt away? It think it only happened on the springs on the down pipe after the collector, not the ones on the headers.

It is pretty common.

ok thanks. I wasn't terribly concerned as those covers seem to be there for aesthetics. The springs are still functional without the covers.

Yep we actually ran without covers on the headers at Road America because that's what was available. On the rest of our systems Akrapovic was including the springs with covers.

Power variance on the 13' build vs the 12' build?

Noticeable :biggrinjester:

Doesn anybody make a 16.5" front wheel for the triumphs? I have like 6-7 front 420 slicks....

PVM does everything you want... I've already held a 3.75"x16" PVM Front Wheel in my Hands- ridden in Endurance World Championship...

Here is a little video for those of you asking what the Akrapovic sounds like onboard. This was taken during Joey's 2nd session at Grattan (a track he had not ridden before)

Joey is an out-braking champ. Every time I watch him race I'm blown away by how late the kid can brake.

Wow... that is a lot of trail braking!
Overtaking at will...

Not running any front fork sliders at all? How come?
