Hey how does that Akrapovic sound over Hindle? Lower pitched? higher pitched? Those were some pipes I was considering, and honestly don't know which one. Oh yeah I have an 05' Blue Yamaha R6 which I am going to post about next.




Akra is the only way to fly if you ask me.

The fact that it STILL runs, and damn well, makes me wonder why I would get anything.

It's 1000cc's, it's Italian, and it's LOUD. What more is there?

That kind of tribal colored black/red was one of the colors I wanted so bad. Is that an 04? If I keep the bike when I get the plastics back I will end up getting a high mount Akra prolly.

But I will tell you a bit about it. I bought it around thanksgiving of '04 after my 10 year old Huffy (another ) finally bit the dust. I had it for a week until a huge stoppie-gone-wrong severly screwed up the rear rim. I got a new one and put the hub on but it ended up sitting all winter until I finally decided to spend hours with a spoke wrench and some needle nose plyers getting it straight to within a mm or so. I then had it working for three days when I was pulling up to physics class, the front tire hit a sand patch, locked and twisted, then folded like a frickin taco. I went flying over the handlebars and somehow landed perfectly on my feet. Everyone there (including me) burst out laughing. I got a lot of confused and amused looks as I carried the thing alllll the way across campus. I then took the previously ruined rear rim and put the current hub on it, removing any useless spokes (a lot of them...), and spent a few hours straightening that. My friends then bet it would last me a week. Nope. Nine days. Hit a tack and needed a new front innertube . By then the school year was almost over, but I got it anyway. After taking it home i decided i hated grip shifts and crappy plastic brake handles (stupid Magna) so I swapped on new handlebars, brake handles, trigger shifters, and cables for all of them, along with removing any Magna decals left on it. It's run like a dream all summer now.



Wow. What a landing! Must have been hilarious. I would have burst out laughing too.

Akra is a F@#KEN RIP-OFF!

My full hindle system cost as much as an Akra slip-on AND was dyno'd to make more power than the Akra full system.

Akra can lick my sack. It's for posers.
