At Unobike, we know firsthand how the Akrapovic brand really works, as our team has visited their production plants in Slovenia several times to see their working methodology, their new production and design technologies, and, above all, to stay updated with their new Akrapovic exhaust catalog
So, if you have arrived at Unobike.com, it is because you are interested in installing an Akrapovic exhaust on your motorcycle, so let us tell you that here you will find the largest exhaust catalog, official Akrapovic exhaust accessories and spare parts at the best price. And not only that, but we also offer you a set of after-sales services (warranties, exhaust or component changes, homologation requests, etc.), so you can be at ease if you have any accidents, impacts, or any other type of incident. In case of a warranty request, Unobike commits to expedite communication with the Akrapovic factory to assess the possibility of warranty, however, the final decision is the responsibility of Akrapovic itself.
All two-wheel enthusiasts know the brand Akrapovič, not only for its unique and unmistakable sound, but also for its aesthetics, design, and high performance that it offers with its silencers, complete exhausts, homologated headers, non-homologated headers, DB-Killers, Catalytic Converters, Exhaust Mounts and Clamps, Adapters and Heat Shields for a motorcycle. Because when we talk about any component of the Akrapovic exhaust system, we are talking about a product handcrafted by artisans with cutting-edge technology.
So next, we will show you how this company really works.
When we talk about this company from Eastern Europe, we are talking about a business whose main philosophy is based on R&D&I: Research, Development, and Continuous Innovation, with the aim of developing top-quality exhaust systems. And this is due to:
Thanks to a meticulous selection and thorough control of base materials in their material laboratories, they can manufacture exhaust systems of the highest quality using the best materials, such as: patented special titanium alloys (by Akrapovic itself), carbon fiber, austenitic stainless steel and nickel alloys. All base materials used by the company undergo chemical analysis, property evaluations, weld checks, defect verifications, microstructure checks… and, in summary, a general assessment of the quality of the raw material with which the exhaust component will be developed.
All components that make up the Akrapovič exhaust system are carefully designed to perfectly fit the aesthetics of the motorcycle. This process is carried out by a highly qualified multidisciplinary team of Designers, Engineers, and Industrial Architects, who reflect all their knowledge, innovative and modern designs in the products of the Slovenian brand.
In production
As the Slovenian brand mentions on its website, “the foundation of everything is having the right tools: it is the key to achieving success”, and this is reflected in their products with all the engineering knowledge, methodologies, and advanced production processes. In addition, the extensive experience of the engineering department (since 1977) has been further developed, as many of them participate in the professional technical teams of world competitions such as MotoGP, WorldSBK, MXGP, DTM, and FIA WEC.
Akrapovic has Measurement and Sound Laboratories
As we have previously mentioned, if there is something that stands out about an Akrapovic, it is its quality, and to achieve this, all items and parts from the brand are tested in a measurement laboratory, and later, used on the track, with the aim of examining the characteristics of the exhaust in detail.
Moreover, the most characteristic element of an Akrapovic is its sound, and to obtain the best result, it has a specific team of noise, vibration, and harshness engineers, who thoroughly adapt the sound of each exhaust tip to the aesthetic nature of each motorcycle. This team of engineers, based on different technical sound data obtained from various tests conducted, and according to their final subjective criteria, assess whether the sound is perfect and in line with the aesthetics and engine of the motorcycle.
So, before a terminal component goes on sale, it has gone through a whole process of quality controls that guarantee maximum product quality. It is for all these reasons that the Slovenian brand Akrapovic is the leading brand in the motorcycle exhaust sector.
