    Anyone else looked at the Akrapovic slip on for the Speed Twin. Slightly more torque and power and lighter too! Looks good in my opinion.Good website and sound track seems similar to the Vance and Hines.

    everyone's got there own tastes for me it doesn't suit the bike looks a bit to modern.

    I think they were in the 600 bracket so quite pricey but Sportsbike shop stock Akropovic exhausts so they might be cheaper from them. Can't remember if the whole thing is titanium or just the end cap.
    Scratch that they appear to be going for close to a grand GULP!

    I had V&H on my speed twin, sounded awesome, much better than the stock pipes....

    I installed a set of Iron Cobras 2-into-1 GP exhaust. They exit on the left side of the bike and are tucked in a whole lot more. What a difference in power, grunt and sound. O.E.M exhaust was 36 lbs verses 11 lbs for the 2-1. A high flow air cleaner completed the installation. $1149 for 2-1 exhaust.

    I actually just bought it and wanted to install it his morning. But the provided muffler clamps included in the kit appear to be too small! Ugh... Contacting Akrapovic/Revizlla now to see if its my crooked hands or they indeed included clamps of a wrong size.

    Once it's on let us see what it looks like. Personally if I won the lottery I would have one tomorrow. Some have said it is too modern for a Speed Twin but I see the bike as different from the other bonnevilles more modern anyway.
