SLIP-ON SP SERIES EXHAUST SYSTEM for the KAWASAKI Z 1000 (2003 - 2006)

The dynamic engine, bold street-fighter looks and especially the four massive exhaust pipes inspired our R&D department to develop an exhaust tuning component for Z-owners. We have produced a lightweight SLIP-ON SP SERIES system which will have a major impact on the looks and sound of the big Kawasaki, lighten its overall weight and increase the power and torque of the engine. The system is made of high-quality stainless steel and titanium (muffler outer sleeve). A further feature of Akrapovic SP series exhaust systems is that they are officially approved for street use. You will also save 8.56 kg compared to the stock muffler.

Performance

Measurements of the Akrapovic SLIP-ON SP SERIES system on the Kawasaki Z 1000 (without noise damper):

Power: the Akrapovic SLIP-ON system complements the big four incredibly well. The results from a minimal modification are more than satisfactory. From 3200 rpm on the SLIP-ON system increases the output over the entire rpm range, with a linear increase over the stock power. Maximum power to the rear wheel is 126.1 HP at 10300 rpm, while max. increased power is 6.1 HP at 6800 rpm.
Torque: the increase in torque is another sign of the success of the Akrapovic SLIP-ON system and indicates the excellent design of this system, intended exclusively for the Kawasaki Z 1000. From 3200 rpm on the torque is increased over the entire range, which is exceptionally useful for more comfortable and smooth gear selection and shifting.
