KTM After market exhaust

[Rob J]

Hey all,

I am looking to replace the stock exhaust on my 1190 Adv.

Having looked around the better known manufactures seem to breakdown as follows:

Akra - £750
Wings - c.£500
Arrows - £350
Leo Vincent - £325

I was just wondering if any of you guys had any experience of the Arrows or LV cans as they are so much cheaper than the Akra & Wings cans?

All comments welcome.

Cheers

Rob

I have Ti Arrows cans on my Husky and they are very well made so from a quality perspective I'd have no problem recommending them.......but.........IMHO the Wings (shorty) is by far and away the best looking of all of the exhausts for the 1190 and represents pretty good value for money as the quality would seem to be pretty good. I'm saving for one for my 1190.

Andres,

I'm with you on the "best looking" issue.

I have requested a quote from Gorazd but imagine the price will be around the £500 mark.

I have never had an Arrows can but always thought they were good looking and performed well.

I could then spend the £150 on other farkles

Had a Leo Vince on my Versys, cracking pipe and very well made with just the right noise. I have a Wings on my 1190 and it too is beautifully built with outstanding quality and three different choices of music. I didn't care much for the Akra as it was a bit more expensive and too quiet and bulky looking for an aftermarket pipe. I don't like the Arrow from the pics I've seen, tho' the price is good. I had actually emailed LV about a pipe for the 1190 and they replied that they had no intention of bringing out one for the KTM, hence buying the Wings. Then literally a month later, they announced a pipe was available. I'd have happily bought one after my experiences with the one on the Versys.

Wings is beautifully made and looks great, especially the Shorty IMHO

I went for the standard length Wings. More than happy.

Wings shortie without any baffles on mine now, and it sounds beyond belief
