do all these exhausts require dyno tuning ?

additionally because im in europe im wondering whether i should go with the homologated ones or race.
I mean you dont have to retune, but it is highly reccomended. I am sure there are some reputable mail in flash tuners in Europe that can reflash your ecu with the correct map for what ever exhaust you choose. I personally would reflash since now there appears to be a recall for improper ecu programming and I am going to jump the gun and say it probably is resolved with a flash (more info to come with testing)
 
Hi my 2021 sp is about to go to Lextek in Exeter in England as a development bike on Monday 2nd of August, they will have it 5 days at which point there will be an exhaust available for the new mt from them, Woolwich racing are currently cracking the ECU, I will ask Lextek to put the standard exhaust back on my bike until the ECU is cracked as I don't want a poor running bike, at the moment it's great and if you cruise on it it's excellent on fuel 57 miles per UK gallon or 46.5 per us gallon, if I cane it I still get 45, that's really giving it stick. I have 3100 miles on it bought it 1st of may, absolutely love it fantastic bike, I live in Dorset southern England which is all country twisty roads, it's perfect, I find the handling is superb, my brother has the standard bike in tech black and quite frankly that handles really well as well and for the money is a bargain. I considered KTM but I wanted Yamaha reliability and that beautiful cross plane crank triple, it's just got torque everywhere. I have a Ducati multistrada as well which I just don't ride anymore as it's horrible to ride in comparison to the mt09, it's a joy to hoon down country roads on and flick through the corners or just cruise and short shift in to top. So Lextek will have an exhaust available very soon probably exiting underneath the right peg.


Any update on this??? Lextek makes a great looking under peg mounted exhaust on the 2nd gen MT09, I want exactly that on the 3rd gen.
 
Anyone know where to get a yoshi from? I emailed them and they've said "The next batch of the 2021-22 MT-09 exhaust are scheduled to be getting made mid to late June (as long as our manufacturing department does not slow down)." I'd prefer the yoshi but am considering just getting the akra since I'll have it months before I can get a yoshi.
 
I had an Akra on my shiver 900 and it always put a smile on my face

with the 21 MT09 I want something that is full titanium and quite loud so the Yoshi, Akra, are out of the running for me personally

I am still waiting for the Austin Racing full titanium. But they don’t have an expected launch date.

Spark is a good option, but it doesn’t seem as if they will offer a full titanium this year.

i don’t think SC project will offer a full titanium (as they didn’t have a full ti for the previous gen)

@harmonist - so I also am circling back to the Akra just because I feel it is the best out of the current bunch. I feel that the Austin will give the more louder and moto GP sound

graves and spark also seem to be more expensive compared to Austin Racing (if last gen options were anything to go by)

arrrrrrrrgghhhhh !!!!
Sorry rant over
 
Hi guys,

I’m new here and I don’t know if someone else has already asked the same thing or not.

I have the 2021 MT09 and have already put 2000km on it. I’m looking to put a full system on it, but only available full system is from Akrapovich. I really don’t like how they made the system with the muffler installed that high so I need to look for other options. I would like to have something similar to the older models where the muffler is under.
Do you know about any other brands that have realesed anything for the 2021 MT09?
After wanting an under engine exhaust and seeing the prices I decided to go with Dominator and install their GP2 exhaust. Just a word of warning to anyone wanting to change their exhaust, the videos on YouTube make it look easy, it is not. There isn’t a lot of space between the headers and Rad and even undoing bolts etc it’s still a 3 hour chore. Very nice exhausts from this company that went on very straight forward and looks/sound cool. Have the medium baffle in to bring it to about 98db but with out has your ears ringing and neighbours moaning in minutes.

Just wait, by the end of the year Austin Racing is releasing their shorty exhaust system for the 2021 MT-09.
I have been in contact with them and also with Yoshi, even Yoshi that already has a prototype built even told me that they’re looking to mass produce by summer of next year.
I can’t wait either I know your feelings right now lol.
Are you still in contact with AR I am waiting on them

Yoshimura supposed to be available (5/20/22)for order directly through their website. I had yosh on my 2018, great system. Akra system for '21> mt09 absolutely butt ugly! Sorry, no offense if you shelled out your hard earned $1k for it but it's way too long, just looks out of place. I ordered yosh, looks far better and can almost guarantee they're comparable on "dyno" if that's what you think is important 🤔. I just personally love the exhaust note of the yosh, way shorter more tucked in system. Either way, if you change your exhaust and air filter, bring it to a competent tuner and have it flashed or it will run worse than stock, may sound "cool" but must be flashed.
 
Austin Racing have released their MT10 exhaust

they have also indicated that MT09 exhaust update could come next week???

I’d be keen to get the AR depending on price and how loud it is

I’m getting excited !!!!!

I spoke to Austin Racing yesterday - they said they were still looking at the 21/22 MT09 exhaust system and could be another 3 months at least before they are ready to release

I’ve waited 9 months, what’s another 3 more 🤦🏽
