Definitely louder but not obnoxious. I really feel like it's the way Akropovic designed the pipe as it sounds exactly like you'd expect it. You can always do it and if you don't like the sound put them back in! I was all set on replacing them with an S&S but after the baffle removal I...

I went the cheap route because I couldn't decide on any of the 'name brand' ones. Turned out really clean and fits perfectly. I also used CBR front turn signals on it because they contoured nicely to the mount. Not exactly the best visibility but enough to be 'legal' and I'm really happy...

Thanks! I was digging through the aftermarket accessories and couldnt' find a part number!

So I thought I was making good progress today. Got oil changes done on 4 of my bikes. Reorganized the moto side of my shop. Made the mountain bikes mesh nicely with the motos. Then made a clumsy mistake....... I knocked over my "22 FTR Champ Ed. I love the bike and am super bummed that...

I'm not on the bike today but next time I am I'll check!

I went the Chinesium route and ordered some clones off Amazon to see if I'd like them. They work.....though the height is a little low for clearance for my hands. The factory mirrors seemed to work okay but I realllllly didn't like how they looked. I think the CRG's are in my future and I...

Kind of goes along with the phrase I learned racing dirt a long time ago: "If you wanna rock......leave it stock". Holds lots of truth here and there but sometimes a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.......

haha.....yeah....the baffle delete is definitely worth it if you don't mind the bike being noisier!:) I always do break in periods on my motors. Lots of schools of thought around it but in our kleenex society where people throw things away too readily, I think a lot of builders ignore the...

Been looking at this bike for a year or so. I ride mostly on dirt with a KTM 500 and GasGas 300, but have been running on and off pavement with an '18 Africa Twin and MANY bikes before those. Fell in love with the looks on the FTR and finally pulled the trigger! It came straight home for the...

I'm a new owner of a '22 FTR Champ Edition and I LOVE it. I've found a ton of good info on here (thank you everyone) so I thought I'd share my take on removing the Akro DB killers. I didn't like the idea of a $20 rubber plug to match the factory Akro one so I chose a different route. A 8mm...
