Loving the new bike, fast, nimble, nice to look at. I really just have one complaint; the sound is a bit disappointing, I was hoping for something throatier. Any advice on a good slip-on set of pipes?

oh, and what have folks done to clean up the back fender area. Most all of the kits I see are for the big 4, very little for Aprilia's out there.

Thanks.

Do you want to remove that large license plate tail?

This might help:

I made my own for my bike.

Enjoy your new ride.

evo akra large bore full titanium system, not quite as loud as the tigs(gud if you want to do track days), better than the small bore akras found on alot of milles

hi had a set of akros on my 05 factory looked nice good quality but a bit to quiet for my liking sold um and bought a set of twinport blueflames sets car alarms off for a pastime now sounds how a twin should and makes me smile everytime feel the noise big kev in bristol

the dual akra aprilia badged items have fairly small bores , think they goto about 93 db with the baffles out, where as the tigs and evo akra single systems are 105 and 107dbs respectively. The blueflames are certainly loud arnt they, nice and raspy too! they remind me of the shotguns I had they were really rorty!

I'm in California, just east of San Francisco. There is one other AF1 around that I know of....the freakin dealer is using it as the demo bike if you can believe that.
