NIce! Im trying to decide between akrapovic or graves system.(also possibly termignoni when they finally put something out) I haven't seen anything on the site so far about a carbon fiber exhaust can available on a akro system. I don't know if I want to do a full system though. Im worried about any flat spots. I like my current linear power band so far. Is that a full system on yours? I recently went to my local dealer and heard the two brothers exhaust on a showroom 09 R1. I was surprised, it sounded awesome. I have never really been a fan of two brothers but it sounded like a beast!

mine is a full system and apparently there wasn't any flat spots that I could feel albeit to my 07. I was surprised when I fitted it on, it felt a lot lighter in lower revs and smoother. Not having an EXUP system could be one of the reason you don't see a flat spot.
The header configuration is different too.... the stock header has port 1 & 4 together and port 2 & 3 together before getting them into 1 through the link pipe. The Akra header has 1 & 2 together and 3 & 4 together.
on the youtube at the moment you can hear all the rest of end cans on the 09.I did came across some links, maybe i'll post it later.
