Muzzy Full Exhaust vs Akro, most HP?

[Mojo Risin']

Ivan's dyno more rexes then anyone, and he recommended the Akra.

Agreed.

I had my bike tuned on a dyno after I put the Akra and pods on. The guy who ran the dyno had also done an 1100 with a Muzzy. My Akra dropped off a bit over 9500 RPM, he said the Muzzy continued to pull all the way to red line. Otherwise the torque/power curves were nearly identical (within a couple of HP). How often and how long are you above 9500?

ALOT!!!!!

there have been times .. on most every ride

I bought the kaw - I want my

Thanks guys for all the input. Depending on how much of a pain it is, I wouldn't mind poping of some springs to drop the pipes to change the oil. I thought I would have to unbolt the exhaust from the front of the motor. That is not a task I would like to do every oil change. I like the bigger looking mufflers. I want it to be around the same size as the stock muffler. The smaller ones seem to small compared to the size of the bike. Thanks guys, Ray

If you can find a ti 4-2-1 muzzy, that's a different story.

I've got a 4-2-1 Hindle on my 1200 and it's badass!

Muzzy on the 1100 ... I don't wear underwear, which makes up for the 2hp deficit when I'm running against someone fitted with the Akro.

I remove the springs, and the two footpeg bolts....leave the can strap in place.
I can remove the can & S pipe in less than two minutes.

I can get my underwear off waaaaaay faster.

Twice as fast if you don't put it on..

Peak (max) horsepower really not any way to pick your exhaust really. As long as one particular model isn't a dog. I mean how long do you plan on riding at that particular rpm?
Looks, cost, sound, loudness, and oil filter access would be much more important to me.

yep, with oil filter access right at the bottom of the list. Unless you have a bergman spin-on deal, it's a PITA anyways, what's two springs and two bolts?

well your muzzy sucks

[stumack]

I am messesd

[isaac]

well your muzzy sucks

I have an akro, terrance!

[ZRX Mitch]

I have a murph's spin on kit. Will a full Muzzy Stainless system fit with the spin on? I'm fine with removing the mid pipe for oil changes.

Cheers, James

Yes, no need to remove any part of the exhaust to change oil & filter.

[Johnnie Phatt]

What is the difference between Titanium and Stainless Steel? Will the Titanium one flow better?

probably not but Ti should weigh less also I believe it will turn cool colours as the heat cycels affect it

The best (IMO) tuning shop in the UK (PDQ) has dyno'd hundreds of Rexes of various states of tune, and the Akra always comes out best for spread of torque under the rev curve.

Plus they are lighter, better made, better materials.
I wouldn't use anything else.

Pal did back to back dyno runs on the same day with an Akra and Muzzys...I seem to remember that the Akra was 4 to 5 bhp up top end and better everywhere else.

There's a thread here somewhere where everyone got upset at him for exposing the Muzzy as a POS.

muzzy ss & muzzy ti full systems have diff diameters - ti is larger,flows better

that would have to be a 3 way test to see which is best

I suspect it would be

1-Full Muzzy Ti

2-akra SS/Ti

3- Muzzy SS/Ti

Was a bit surprised at how quiet my Akra is in the lower RPMs (even with it bulldogged), but actually came to appreciated that. I don't feel like I'm going to piss off the neighbors everytime I start the thing up for an early morning ride. But above 6k, the thing howls just fine!

It was a SS/Ti Muzzys he tested.

Would be interesting to see a back to back test of the Akra with the full Ti Muzzys
