Go for it! I think it looks great!

Can't seem to remember anyone with this exact model of exhaust.... Someone did go for similar setup but can't remember who! (OOOPS!)

 

During my research on finding the right exhaust for my vintage-cafe racer style R9T the K-speed Diablo in full black is one of my favourites.
Is there anyone active on this forum with this exhaust and willing to share some information about the pros and cons?
At the moment I have the high mounted Akrapovic....perfect sound and high quality but doesn’t fit in the cafe racer/old school style that I have in mind so searching for a “underneath look”.
The G & G is a possibility as well...but the looks of the K-speed do beat the G&G...of course this is my own opinion ?
Looking forward to some advise/recommendations. View attachment 127062

I am really leaning towards getting that K-Speed exhaust. I also noticed that it has the Trucklite 7" headlight... need to see if there is an install guide here somewhere.

 

Like it!
Suits the character of the bike.
Not having the EXUP, would mean needing that gizmo that prevents the "check engine" light and am pretty sure that the ECU will need re-mapping.
Worth the expense and trouble!

"four wheels good, two wheels better"

 

@R9TNLD Did you end up getting this exhaust? How did the buying process go? Did you need to get the ECU re-mapped or any other modifications to make it work?

 

I’ve received the exhaust about a month ago....just moved to a new home, been overseas couple of times work related issues...looks like I’m starting my complete rebuild of my R9T somewhere in February. So basically long story short no further information besides the fact that the exhaust looks very high quality, welding job is a piece of art! Price is ok and the company didn’t mind to make a deal to lower the custom fee?
I’m quite sure it needs some Ecu remapping but that is easily sorted.

 

I'm thinking of getting this. Just need some more research. I.e. could I have something custom made that's the same for cost. Or get this one.



I'm not sure about this but apparently ecu's after 2015 are self learning for modification.

So you are ment to install the exhaust or air filter then when ready start the bike up but do nothing no revving. Just leave it for 10 minutes to climatise.

Think it was this video on YouTube talks about it. Different bike but it's a ECU where talking about.

Royal Enfield interceptor 650 dont fit a DNA
Performance air filter until you have watched this!

Not sure about this. I would always get it remapped. Might try it for a test.

 

I want something like this but I want to have the end cans kick out each side at a 45 + and I want to make a custom belly pan.

 

Wow, that’s beautiful. Hey Captain notice there’s no crossover pipe. That looks so much different, balanced and the sound is perfect. Go for it and post lots of Picts .... and $$$
I’m right behind you with a very similar custom mod. Twin pipes, no two into one. Thanks

 

Hey Captain notice there’s no crossover pipe.

Ummm, I notice there is a crossover pipe.

 

Would love to ride that things around the block. Preferrably with no one watching, because I'll surely make a fool of myself, with them big tires, rider triangle and such...

 

Yes Parkblu, I too would love to ride that machine. I found the photo on the internet and hope to “Bob” my 9T to look as close to that “cool” someday. The fat tires would help the ride a little with a hard-tail rear end... it’s no racer, no trail, no adventure, no cafe ...It’s a “Cruzen Bobber” even at 50 MPH, which is a fast as you’ll probably ever want to go...
The things you can do to a boxer are endless and beautiful too in all iterations and forms, and check out those exhaust pipes ...

 

 

Hi R9TNLD,
are those mufflers at the back part branded or are they no-name/custom?

 

R9TNLD I am jealous. Beautiful man. Check it out Captain. You were right, there’s that damn crossover I completely missed. They are really beautiful R9TNLD, Your bike is going to sound great. When you get them on make a vid and post it. OK ..make me sad and tell me what they cost. Are they brand name, Chinese or did you have them custom built.

 

Love the black finnish!

Could you give some info on price? Did you call up and buy or was it there website? Import price for EU?

I have been drooling over them for a month now!

 

No problem at all?

Complete was around 890€
Shipping 110€
import after some tricks 130€

total for the exhaust 1140€

(I had the pegs added)

 

.

 

Will do definitely?
At the moment deployed..back within 2 weeks and then fully onto the R9T to finish all modifications before the new riding season.

 

Hey R9TNLD, did you end up fitting this exhaust? I think a lot of us would love to see some pics/videos if you have any!

Interestingly it looks like the kspeed website links to the exhaust that used to work are now dead- might have to contact them directly if anyone wants to order one.

 

Hi. Any quality issues on this? I am close to ordering it. But read somewhere about issues. Also do you have a photo/video of the install?

cheers.

 

Good morning.

sorry mate, have been stuck in the Middle East due to corona virus.
At the moment back home and making some progress.
Fitting the exhaust will hopefully happen in a couple of days...I’m waiting until the paint job is finished🙏🏽
If you like, just follow my topic that I am trying to keep updated as soon as I have some progress.
Cheers

Bmw R nine T rebuilt

At the moment busy collecting all the parts.. Never made a topic about any project so far....but why not? I’m getting started in about 1 month and a half to put everything together. To do list: Electrics: Motogadget display Motogadget bar end blinkers Kellerman blinkers rear with integrated...

Hi,

would also be very interested. It should fit the "racer" as well, right?

Tom

 

Hi tom, I think it will..everything is similar so shouldn’t be a problem to install this on a RnineT racer...but that’s just my 2 cents☺
Only difference is some clipons and a fairing...if I am not mistaken.quite sure a “racer” owner that is reading this message can give some feedback 🙏

How was your purchasing experience with K-Speed? It seems it requires some Kasikon bank transfer, which I'm completely unfamiliar with. I own a racer and the fairings aren't anywhere near the exhaust, so fitment should be the same.

 

Hi, I am currently in contact with them. They also accept VISA and PayPal with 4,4% recharge. Asked for DHL shipment and they are relatively expensive. I am unsure whether to order.

 

Let me know how it goes. That’s definitely the best looking exhaust out there for our bikes. To have it replicated with any sort of quality would be more.

 

 

Is this DB eater you’re referring to a separate part? As I’m hoping this diablo system is loud, which is fine in CA.

 

I also noticed some electronic looking black box with two wires coming from it where the exhaust pipe connects to the muffler. What is it? Is is eliminated? KSpeed claims that there’s no ECU issues. Exhaust usually doesn’t effect warranty, any knowledge of this? I think the bike will benefit from a tune to ensure it’s not running too lean or rich. Lastly, KSpeed also shows a flat belly pan, looks like a good idea, since I’m surprised there’s nothing protecting the engine down there. Thanks!

 

Hi Ron, welcome again and I had the same thoughts about the looks of the K-speed exhaust especially when cafe-racing style is your thing😊
First things first...about the sound it is producing.....it is a lot😅🙈
Believe me...I have a voxan black magic with 2 supertrapp mufflers...that’s a loud one...but absolutely nothing compared to this. Please re-consider if you are buying this exhaust to have the dB-killer....the sound without is massive but on the motorway after half an hour it gets a bit too much.

but of course this is all based on my own experience.
The black box is indeed the exhaust flapper, collector or however it is called...no room for it on the k-speed exhaust.

There you go😊

about any ECU ...none of them popped up in the display so I’m not really concerned so hands down again for K-speed.

last item, flat belly pan...I bought mine in Germany via eBay....loved the combination of the robust black metal with the stunning exhaustive...took some time to fit it properly. ( companies made the skid plate with the stock exhaust in mind...the K-speed is slightly lower. Anyway that makes you love the result even more.
By the way there is a lovely skid plate on Etsy dot com has some cool Bmw details.
Anyway I hope this is useful information for now😊
Back to my gin and tonic watching Barbarians VS England 2019

 

I forgot to ask how does the quality seem to be?

 

Cheers!

 

Mass moto do a similar 2-2 exhaust. The muffler on the mass is more blended into the pipes to look like open slash cuts. I don't have one, just seen it while looking around for exhaust options on my racer
