Racing Line (Carbon) Exhaust System for the Aprilia RS 660 from Akrapovič
Akrapovič has released its latest creation by adding the #racing Line (Carbon) exhaust system for the #apriliars660 to its catalogue.
The #racing Line (Carbon) is a complete exhaust system that has been designed to optimize power and torque from the 660 cc parallel-twin powerplant while providing an exhilarating soundtrack and meeting the full protocols required for EC/ECE type approval, making it fully Euro 5 compliant.
Constructed from high-quality carbon fibre for the outer sleeve of the muffler, end cap, and heat shield, with a lightweight titanium outer sleeve for the pre-muffler, and with the remainder of the system made using high-grade stainless steel, the #racing Line (Carbon) exhaust system has been created using race-proven materials for Aprilia’s dynamic, middleweight sports bike. The use of lightweight materials makes the #racing Line (Carbon) system 0.4 kg lighter than the standard stock system. Intensive testing on the Akrapovič in-house dyno, with back-to-back runs of an #apriliars660 equipped with a #racing Line (Carbon) exhaust and an RS 660 with the standard stock exhaust system, recorded an increase of 1.8 kW (2.4 hp) at 11,200 rpm and a gain of 3.6 Nm of torque at 4,550 rpm, all of which give the rider a pronounced throttle response, adding to the overall experience gained from an Akrapovič product.
The connection between the Akrapovič #racing Line (Carbon) and the #apriliars660 is further emphasized through the soundtrack that the engineers in Slovenia have furnished the system with. Its deep, full, and sporty sound, with its throbbing parallel-twin pulsations, provides the feeling of riding a bigger capacity bike. The exhaust creates a sound from the engine more akin to the Aprilia RSV4, which fully demonstrates the lineage that the RS 660 comes from. The system has a simple plug-and-play installation with no remapping needed.
The Akrapovič #racing Line (Carbon) for the #apriliars660 is the ideal exhaust for this middleweight sports bike, combining an increase in performance while meeting the latest EC/ECE type approval and providing a striking visual appearance, allied with an exciting and pulse-racing sound.
