Hi Guys,

I have just purchased my first Aprilia, a 2007 factory, with a few goodies already on it.
Hope you like the pics, and I will no doubt be spending hours scouring the different forum topics

Regards
Gary

They look lovely but I bet she runs rough low down the rev range unless you get a custom fuel map. Most would love the akras you already have don't think you will have any trouble shifting them.

How much are you looking for if you don't mind me asking? I take it you have the mivv cans bought and fitted?

To be honest I'm not sure on price at moment. I have the Mivv cans waiting to be fitted in my garage. However, the Akrapovic is the full system, and the Mivv cans/link pipes do not match up Akra downpipes. So the dilemma is either removing the full system, and replacing with original, or getting some link pipes fabricated to fit.
So price all depends if its going to be just cans or the full system, which I was told by the previous owner cost well over £2k..?

Yeh they sound brilliant. My mate on his gsxr thou with arrow cans always comments on how good mine sounds next to his.

I haven't tried mine without the baffles removed yet though, will have to sort the rivets and work something out.

They look great as well!
