Akra hex slip-ons for the ZX14
Just saw these on this website. Are these for real? Checked Akra's site and there is no mention of hex cans for the 14.

Haven't seen anything like that for the 14..............those pics are of a 10R. Nothing on their web site like you said. I can't believe Akropovic doesn't have a full system for the 14......................just can't believe it..............

They know who sells the most 14 full exhausts, why engage the competition

I can't believe they can't take the time to put up correct and decent pics!

Hey Steve, I take it you have never seen an Akrapovic pipe up close for inspection and compare it to any pipe out there or install an Ak pipe on a bike???
I say its the best pipe made!!!...PERIOD...

They have not made the hex can for the 14 yet, and I was told by the rep that they are probably not going to.

I agree. The akrapovic welds are awesome, but I think they would be hard pressed
to make more power than Brock is making. Definately nice quality though.

I had an Akro evo2 on my zx10 they are GREAT pipes but I agree I dont think they will make the top end power that a brock makes both pipes are made for completely different purposes!

Oh I've seen many and they are beautiful, extremely high quality made pipes by far!
I don't know if they'd find it worthy to do the research required to squeeze more horsepower than some of the other ZX14 makers, unless they planned on selling a chitload.
I see Akro in the track bike arena more-so than the hig HP drag bikes. And for every ZX14 sold there's a handful of 600's, 750's and litre bikes sold.
But maybe they'll do what it takes to be the best in the ZX14 arena and I'm so wrong, that'd be like me anyway
