- In this video, I take you through the process of swapping out the stock exhaust on my 2022 BMW R1250GS for an upgraded Akrapovic version. But here's the twist - I provide you with exclusive before and after exhaust sounds, not just during a cold start but also while riding through different gears. Experience the transformation like never before!
🔊 Key Highlights:
Detailed installation process.
Cold start sound comparison.
Riding sound comparison through gears. No other video on CZcams provides such an in-depth sound comparison. Don't forget to wear headphones for the best experience!

Unpopular opinion here. I prefer the stock exhaust. The Akra is more of a hum while the stock exhaust has more rasp or character IMO. The Akra definitely looks better. But the stock exhaust is not ugly. It definitely looks better than the stock exhaust on my RT lol
😂 How do you like the RT?
@@FLYANDRIDE15 I love my RT. It is the only bike I’ve had so far that I would regret unloading. It does everything extremely well. It is also very well equipped for 2-up riding. I don’t have to fiddle with suspension like my RG and I have no problems passing people uphill in elevation.
I am currently in the process of working a trade going from my 2022 RG ST to a used 2022 GS Triple Black with 571 miles. I see you have a SG as well. My lady is upset with me because she will miss the sound and cool factor of the RG, although she is more comfortable on the RT.
My intent is to use the GS during the warmer months but I have a feeling that I will really get a lot of use out of it.
@@keithchelini5776 awesome. Thx for the details. Here’s what I will say. The minute your lady rides pillion on the GS she will be forever thankful and never want to go back. My wife loves the GS and prefers it over my CVO, even with my upgraded Wilbur suspension. Just no comparison!
I think I’m with you on this.
The new exhaust sounds good. Looking forward to what comes next with the collaboration. Ride safe and enjoy. 👍👊✌️
Thx brotha
@@FLYANDRIDE15 👍
Thank you for the review. I can’t justify the $2k + exspense for the Akrapovic system. And I like the stock exhaust sound much better ! I’d rather a bypass pipe down below and keep the rest stock .
@@user-is4te9qd1o thx for watching
@@FLYANDRIDE15. Welcome . You make great videos . Very thourough
@@user-is4te9qd1o I appreciate it 🤙
Výborné rozhodnutí ....Akrapovič je bomba a nádherně vypadá.🙂😍
👍
Wow !!! Love it , look and sound amazing , 🤙🤙🔥🔥
Thank you 💯🤙
I have always felt Akrapovic pipes sound the best. I'm looking forward to hiw you like it after a tune.
💯👊
I get a pretty bad drone from mine, but it's not at any of my crusing speeds it's at kinda an odd ball heavy traffic mph
I have the same 2023 gs but coming form a Ducati this thing still sound like a lawnmower
After my bt moto tune, sounds pretty great. But anything coming from a Ducati will sound suboptimal 😂
@@FLYANDRIDE15what are your toughts on the btmoto tune? For normal street driving. How is the throttle response? Not to harsh
@@wimvanderwouw7666 absolutely great. Very smooth throughout the curve
I think it alters the tone at idle and low rpm some but at 4K+ they sound pretty close to stock. There's no denying the better looks, lower weight and slight performance bump but sadly the sound isn't much of a change.
I think the difference is very noticeable but maybe I just forgot what stock sounds like.
Maybe I’m just deaf or something but they both sound very similar.
In person you really can appreciate it
A little louder, sounds good
Thank you!!
I bought that Akrapovic for my R1250gs 2023 but the exhaust sounds louder than the Akrapovic that sells Bmw. Does the same thing happen to you? Thanks
Mine has a different tone and growl. Not sure if it’s louder but I love the sound way more of Akra vs stock, especially after BT-Moto tune. Congrats on the new bike!
Did you have to tune her or not? Sound is on point when you crank it 👍👍🤘🤘🤘🫡🇺🇸🌵
Just wait and see next few videos!!! Not tuned on this one 😀
@@FLYANDRIDE15 gimme reasons to spend moneeeeeyyyy🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MRGS48 it’s coming
I like lower sound of Acra.
Me too! Thanks for watching 🤙
Hey, Im doing some re-search on this Exhaust to swap it for my GS and I really don't know if i should or not buy it. Clearly there is a difference between stock and akra. Should i BUY IT!? :D
I love it. Different sound and tone and a bit more HP especially when combined with tune
@@FLYANDRIDE15 thanks. I will consider it more now. Does it bother you on longer rides?(sound)
@@user-rt9my7pj3y not at all. It’s not louder. Just sound nicer
is this euro 4 or euro 3 akra?
Not sure but this was the latest by akra
a lower tone on the new one....
I like it!
I did the same on my BMW RS. Sound change was minimal. However it looks a lot better. I ordered titanium headers to get rid of the CAT and also a tune for the bike from BT-Moto. I also did sound tests after installing the Akrapovic slip on. Check it out: czcams.com/video/jBSlHV0P7CQ/video.htmlsi=WqE90kvTEn9L0Mtx
Just checked it out. Great vid. For some reason on mine the sound is noticeably better, especially after bt moto tune
@@FLYANDRIDE15 I'm hoping after changing out the headers and flashing the ECU, I'll have a deeper rich sound. I don't want it too loud though. Also probably get more pops on down shifting. Safe journeys!
