MotoWerkz Exhaustwritten by -- October 22nd, 2008Filed under: 2008 Kawasaki Zx6r,Staff Bikes | Comments (10) |
Hi guys! It’s GooDy yet again! Today, my good buddy from MotoWerkz hooked us up with their MotoGP style exhaust for my Ninja Zx6r. It is installed near the muffler inlet to reflect and dissipate sound energy, reducing the decibel level as rpm’s increase. Because the open area of the cone is greater than the area of the collector or exhaust pipe, back-pressure is minimized, so you reduce noise with little or no power loss. The cones are made from T-304 stainless steel and weigh less than .5 lbs. each.
The MotoGP style exhaust is the hottest style you can put on your bike at this time. It’s loud, it looks so cool, and it releases the true power of the bike. Whenever you mention GP styled exhausts, people are usually afraid that they will lose torque or back pressure on the bike.
But having it on my bike right now, compared to the Akrapovic unit I had earlier, the Ninja really picks up more power at any rmp. There is no losing of power at the low-end because you still have the cat on. Basically, see it as losing a bunch of unwanted weight from your bike.
So far, I’ve gotten so many compliments on how cool it looks at bike meets everywhere. It really makes the Ninja look like a MotoGP bike. After you remove the undertail section, the bike looks even sexier. And the sound is amazing, but it is loud. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not too loud for daily riding but every time you gun it, it screams!
The bike is quicker now than when it had the Akrapovic. And the most important things is that you lose almost 20lbs of stock exhaust. Not only do you remove the stock muffler, you remove the whole mid pipe. That’s big crash diet.
Right now, it runs fine with out tuning, but if you have a power commander, Motowerkz offers a map to make your bike even run better. We will keep updated on this. Till next time guys, Peace!
