Default AKRA Slip On and Full Racing System

HI Guys,

I have the Akra Slip ON but i am really tired of the catalytic converter which is too heavy and ugly. And i would like definetely to loose bike's weight.

As i heard the Shorty Akra Racing pipes are way too loud, i am planning of buying the long can and the corresponding pipes.

My question: If i buy the pipes for the long can, will I be able to change from times to times and put the AKRA short can? Or it wont fit?

Cause it seems that the pipe link to the muffler is different if the can is short or not?

Any idea? Advices?

The cans themselves can only be changed if you buy the link pipe for the short can. The short has a shorter and smaller 60mm outlet and the long one is 65mm. The headers are common.

Thanks a lot Nigel! Really appreciate that!

In your view can you use on daily basis or for the long trip the short can ? Does it give headache or ears vibration too much ? I had a devil previously and on tunnel it was a real nightmare for the ears as it was vibrating and I felt dizzy.

What do you think ?
