Article: Racing Line (carbon) exhaust system.
The Racing Line (Carbon) exhaust system from Akrapovic for the Suzuki GSX-8S/R from 2022 represents a completely new development in the field of high-performance exhaust systems. Made from lightweight, race-proven materials, this system offers a significant weight reduction of 39.6% (3.2 kg) compared to the standard exhaust system. The combination of a carbon fiber silencer, titanium end cap and stainless steel components not only provides a visual upgrade, but also improved performance values.
The exhaust system features an innovative layout that places the exhaust on the right side of the motorcycle - unlike the standard version which runs under the motorcycle. This emphasizes the racing character of the facility. In addition, a carbon fiber heat shield effectively protects against heat and stylishly rounds off the design. Power and torque increases of 4.7 kW (6.4 hp) at 9,200 rpm and 4.7 Nm at 7,650 rpm, measured on the Akrapovic test bench, underline the superiority of this exhaust system over the standard equipment.
Another highlight is the resonator in the connecting tube, which creates a unique soundscape. The lively and racing tone does not affect performance. Compatibility with the original Suzuki soft side bags is retained. Please note that installing the Racing Line (Carbon) on Euro5+ models requires reprogramming of the ECU, otherwise the check engine light will activate.
Please note that this product does not meet emissions requirements for on-road or highway use and is therefore primarily designed for racing purposes.
