Pan America Titanium Slip-On Line Muffler
Performance exhaust specialist Akrapovic says it created its new Slip-On Line Titanium muffler for Harley's Pan America "to fit seamlessly within the lines of the bike, utilizing an established and tested design used on Akrapovic products for other popular models in the Adventure bike sector.
"This highly durable exhaust has a sandblasted high-grade titanium muffler outer sleeve with a stainless-steel link pipe. The handmade carbon-fiber end cap and heat shield follow the profile of the muffler."
Akrapovic claims a weight saving of 11.6% (0.5 kg) over stock. "Performance is enhanced with a power increase of 1.3 kW (1.7 hp) at 2,300 rpm and a rise in the torque level of 5.6 Nm at 2,700 rpm when tested on the Akrapovic in-house dyno against a Pan America 1250 with a standard stock exhaust."
Described as delivering a "deep and full V-twin sound" this EC/ECE type-approved exhaust also complies with the latest Euro 5 standards and needs no remapping to the ECU - it is a "simple plug-and-play installation and is compatible with the H-D Pan America 1250 Special version and with the original H-D side cases, saddlebags, and centre stand.
An optional Akrapovic link pipe developed specifically for use with the Slip-On Line Titanium muffler (for racetracks and closed courses only) is made from high-grade stainless steel, and removes the stock pre-muffler for an impressive 76.5% (1.9 kg) weight reduction over the stock version.
When installed with the muffler performance is said to be increased by 2.7 kW (3.7 hp) at 9,000 rpm and torque is boosted by 6.8 Nm at 2,900 rpm with no remapping of the ECU required. The EC/ECE type approval of the muffler is not valid if the optional link pipe is attached.
