SHvar Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Akropovic USA told me the day before I picked my 2014 up that the slip-ons are on order and expected within weeks. In the US there are no options from the dealer as an upgrade on a new cycle for aftermarket exhaust because of our emission laws (includes noise emissions). You can buy them after the fact but not as an option (except for Harley Davidson somehow). In Europe I believe they were told the Akrapovic slip-ons will be available in July from the dealers. I had to actually call Akropovic to get a part number and price at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogman Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 I have the Akra on order but any 5th gen low mount will fit, there are some cheap Delkevics on ebay. The pipewerks that is on Youtube is actually a 5th gen model. There is a 2bros also which looks nice too. Its a pisser the Akra is taking so long, but I expect its a good product.....

Viffertje Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Dam is working on makeing their can fit the 8th gen: If anyone is interesed in purchasing one of these models, please send me a message!!!

Member Contributer RDMcD Posted July 7, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 7, 2014 Has anyone seen this before? It's intended for the crossrunner but I'm sure that's the same exhaust as the 8th gen. I came across this about a year ago while searching for an underbelly exhaust for a 5th gen. At the time the website listed it at around $1000. http://www.hpcorse.com/EN/moto/84/crossrunner (sorry,can't get the picture to load) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V4 Rosso Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Looks similar to this one: http://youtu.be/gQk970IZhVU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Switchblade Posted July 7, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 7, 2014 So that means the Micron high mount that I have on my 5th gen would fit. Nice! Don't get too excited. High mount support brackets might not fit the 8G. True, however it wouldn't be that hard to fab one up. Heck, you may beven be able to do it with off the shelf stuff at a hardware store. Probably have to notch the rear fairing though. I did on my 5th gen. For sure or someone here will make a kit to do it !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epyon007 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I had Arrow on my Daytona 675 and it was absolutely fantastic!!! I'd buy from then again in a heart beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatshoutybloke Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 That looks amazing! Wonder if I can get one in the UK. Aren't they made in Germany? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer thor294 Posted July 14, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 14, 2014 underseat exhaust please... so we can see that sexy wheel :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjb1019 Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Well, I just took the plunge and ordered myself an Arrow pro-racing slip on. No idea if the importer even have a stock in yet, but they should confirm my order and the delivery time tomorrow. Hopefully will have it by the weekend! Will keep you guys posted on how it turns out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epyon007 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I'm pretty sure you'll be happy with it. I really think that Arrows quality is amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
choco Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Remus also. http://www.remusaustralia.com.au/new-products/honda-vfr800-f-2014-remus-exhaust-new-product-release-/ That's the one I'd get. Remus and Staintunes are sweet sounding and look great on the Gen 6. The Arrow for the Gen 8 looks pretty good too, styled much like the Remus. I'd like to hear some audio.

cjb1019 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 K, so it turns out I got my dates massively wrong - the Arrow pipe will hopefully be with me next weekend. When it arrives I will attempt some videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfh Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Much better : Thor294. Remus dyno charts in the video show more than 96hp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epyon007 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 hmm thats kinda disappointing to me. It doesn't sound much like a baby V8... But it is a damn sight better then stock thats for sure!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer thor294 Posted July 23, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted July 23, 2014 Much better : Thor294. Remus dyno charts in the video show more than 96hp. lol 104. the problem with this is, that you gotta have a reference point on the same dyno. Their dyno could be off. motorcyclist claims 96hp from the 800. Again, it would be great if I find someone who buys a vfr800 from my local honda dealer, and have him dyno it after he breaks it in of course :P lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHvar Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 A recent magazine article I found had the bike at 98.3 hp, to which they commented was the same HP at 700 rpms lower than their last test model (6th gen model) on the same dyno. It was Rider magazine. http://www.ridermagazine.com/top-stories/2014-honda-vfr800-interceptor-road-test.htm/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
