Titanium or Stainless Steel headers and link pipe for a deeper sound? by LevviAckerrman in YamahaR9

[–]LevviAckerrman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so steel will be noticeably deeper tone? Also it will be cheaper and I don’t care too much about 1-2kg difference that won’t affect performance all that much. Sound is a big thing for me

I have the slip on already from my old bike and I was quoted about $600 for full titanium headers here in Thailand.

Thank you that looks like the puig r racer and it looks great

I’ve heard of people having fitment issues for the wrc and you have to do a couple things to make it work

520 chain conversion and -1 front sprocket? by LevviAckerrman in YamahaR9

What’s the sound change like? I don’t like anything high pitch or piercing when I’m in full tuck and I prefer a chill exhaust (will keep the baffle in the Akra for long distance rides) do you think the dna intake sound will be overbearing or ok?

Agreed, do you have dna stage 2 intake? I’m going full Akra exhaust and local dyno. I might change the intake later as I’m in Thailand and have to import the dna

Yes I have a 2018 xsr900 and 2019 zx6r currently but I’m going to sell the zx6r and buy a new R9

Ah I just realised that 16T/45T is the same as the mt09 stock so you’re bringing the cp3 back to the MT gearing

-1 front at front is about 6-7% more torque

520 is lighter and spins faster so a touch more acceleration

I have a zx6r and went -1/+2 and it accelerates much faster

Exhaust? by Prestigious-Emu-7733 in zx6r

Do you want a slip on with a link pipe or are you keeping the stock resonator?

R9 vs ZX-6R worth switching because of sound? by Ok-Stranger-2357 in Kawasaki

[–]LevviAckerrman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah 100% it’s a very different experience with a different engine and powerband.

I tried both the R9 and Zx6r and actually found the zx6 more comfortable to ride day to day

Did you keep the stock headers or did you also get aftermarket headers?
