Hello everyone , she's now past 600 miles , and I feel I can now say that the new Yamaha map feels much softer / tamer than my original bike . No throttle tamer required either . The standard exhaust is very restrictive , the high level akrapovic with baffle definatly lets her breath more easy ...

dudes , i have been looking at the 2 systems akra supply , am i correct in saying , the downpies are the same , the exhaust itself is the same , except for the end cap ? the lower level version has the end cap which is larger to house the baffle and the high level system , which has a smaller...
