Inspired by the concept presented at EICMA 2024, this exhaust was designed to seamlessly integrate into the lines of the motorcycle. It is made from high-quality stainless steel in a single piece and shaped using high-end technology, with the catalytic converter welded into the header. The catalytic converter is welded into the header and equipped with a handcrafted carbon fiber cover, into which the outlet is integrated with a honeycomb exhaust guard and an Akrapovič logo in red and white. The header is plug-and-play installable and requires no mapping. The focus during development was on optimal throttle response and performance, resulting in an increase of 0.8 kW (1.1 hp) at 9,200 rpm and a torque increase of 0.6 Nm at 8,500 rpm compared to a Yamaha MT-07 with a stock exhaust system, tested on the in-house Akrapovič dyno. The weight is 28.6% (2.2 kg) lighter than the stock exhaust system. The exhaust system delivers a deep and sporty sound and is EC/ECE type approved and Euro 5+ compliant. It was designed to be installed in combination with the original Yamaha center stand and engine protection bars.
