looks ok, BUT! bet you its about £25.00 less than the termi, and even iff it was £250 less than the titanium termi, would still choose the termi, it just looks right, these here rounded pipes look too mutch 916ified. One thing which was right with the pre 05 999's was the looks/ shape of the termi exhaust, Not sure about a few other bits with the amount of mods & upgrades being done for 05.

The Akra exhaust is in the MCN today. £1850, removeable road-legal baffles, full system in titanium with stainless can. Saves over 8kg on the standard set-up.

I want, I want, I want...

as always will probably be great quality but imho round pipes just dont work with the 999. the letterbox style exits compliment the whole style of the rear dont know why they didnt just try to improve to termi system maybe they couldnt.

Easier to make removeable baffles with round exits I guess

Maybe wait and see.....??

I think that I agree with that - I'd have to see one actually attached to a bike before thinking of buying the Akro system for my 749. I know there was the picture of the system on Chili's machine, but thats a whole lot different to seeing one on a otherwise 'stock', road going machine.....

Had full Akro Ti system on the SP2 - different class with regards to the build quality, and polishes up nice too with the help of some WD40!

Mark.
