This year’s new Bandit also gets an Akrapovic exhaust. In accordance with the motorcycle’s style, we have developed an Akrapovic SLIP-ON SP series exhaust system which will satisfy the needs of riders who are looking for a straightforward exhaust system modification. The system is an excellent combination of performance and affordability, and stands out among the competition in terms of production quality. The system for the EU market includes a noise damper, while the system for the US market comes without the damper.

Performance
Measurements of the Akrapovic SLIP-ON SP series system on the SUZUKI GSF 650 S BANDIT (without noise damper):
Power & Torque: the exhaust system modification is reflected clearly in the power and torque curves. The engine breathes freely, which can be seen in the increased values, as the power increase begins already at 3000 rpm and grows up to around 6400 rpm. From there on it maintains a constant value, above the stock level, which extends to the top of the rpm range. At 10000 rpm it generates 75.6 HP. The torque measurements also show a major increase, especially in the middle of the rpm range, i.e. the most commonly used part of the range during everyday riding.
