Akrapovic Optional Link Pipe/Collector (SS) Ducati Desertx 2

Built from high-grade stainless steel, the newly developed optional link pipe is aimed at riders looking for better performance and weight reduction. Its design removes the stock pre-muffler – where the stock catalytic converter is located – allowing less restricted gas flow to aid performance in the mid and high rev range. When combined with a Slip-On Line (Titanium), the pairing enhances power by 2.8 kW (3.8 hp) at 8,600 rpm and torque rises by 3.3 Nm at 7,100 rpm (when tested on the Akrapovič dyno in comparison to a Monster using a standard stock exhaust), while serving up a deep, racing sound. Weight is reduced by 3.8 kg, which is a saving of 80% against the stock version. Developed for use on closed-course tracks and racetracks only, remapping of the ECU is recommended to get the optimum performance from this race-derived accessory.

Installation of the optional link pipe (SS) makes EC/ECE type approval of the Slip-On Line (Titanium) invalid.
