- When a customer asked me to have his #R1250gsa for a couple of weeks whilst I installed lots of goodies it was just too tempting to video a Rev Off when I noticed it had an #scproject exhaust. Let’s see if it’s a match for the #akrapovic
Also half way through this video I added a video of the Akra on my R1200gsa which was video’d back in January of a ride by.
I use the following equipment to record and edit my VLOGs:-
Canon EOS 700D
IphoneXS Max
Ipad Pro
Drift GhostS
Go Pro Hero 7 Black
Insta360 ONE X www.abikething...
Rode Lavalier Microphone
Purple Panda Lavalier Microphone
Rode Wireless GO
My current motorcycles are:-
BMW R1200GS Adventure Rallye 2018 spec
KTM 1290R Superduke (coming soon)

Akrapovic all day everyday. 🥇
I’ve got a SC Project on my r1250gs and it’s awesome. I run it without the baffles and found it less ‘wheezy’ than the Akra. It’s also weighs a little less.
It’s the untouched stock exhaust for me. I need to hear and feel the beautiful sound of the boxer engine. That’s why I ride a GSA.
Buddy's Insight to be fair it enhances it. I’ve had 3 GSA’s and two rninets. I too love the feel of a boxer.
Thank you for the quick review
If I was you, I would have added the weight & price comparison side to side on the video. Just to make it a bit more informative
In this video the Akrapovic sounds much better, however I have just installed a Euro 3 Spec SC Projects on my R1200GS. With the DB Killer in, it sounds slightly deeper than Standard, with DB Killer out its much deeper and throttle response is improved. Its down to choice, but I'm extremely satisfied with the product.
SC Project all day everyday. 🥇
Saw a stock exhaust GS and one with an Akra pipe at my dealers. Had them started up side by side and the stock exhaust sounded more "rumbly" and had a better bass tone while on idle. Even the dealer was surprised that the stock sounded better.
Sc project sounds like the is engine is expressing its wild side 🔥
Can’t beat the Akra
Akrapovic+buffle out sounds awesome.
Function rules: which makes the bike run best (torque, bhp and mpg)? If two are equal, choose the lightest. Everything else is irrelevant (sound is only for posers, not bikers)😈
Ernie R of course you’re dead right. Just a bit of fun
Ok I prefure the Akrapovic. I have that on my 1250 GSA. I only had that on mine because it looked better than stock. I do like the sound. I have to be honest. I dont really get the idea of taking baffles out of an Adventure or touring bike. I dont really want lots of noise on long haul trips. The Akrapovic is just right I think. My Kawasaki's all sound awesome with alsorts of systems, but they are sports bikes. My Harley has Vance & Hines. My Yamaha Bulldog has Blue Flame end cans so yea I like nice sounding bikes. I just think this isn't the type of bike you want too noisey personally. I think only one of my bikes has a stock system & that's only because shes so beautiful. Just saying.
Akrapovic has a real growl, would be an interesting comparison to take baffles out of the SC, SC also sounds great on Rickover but loses some of the growl when being revved!
What would be very interesting is to put the bike on a power bench while testing the silencers, and without dbkiller !
How is your quick shifter so smooth
Hi, why haven't you got the full akrapovic system on your bike? I would love to hear the difference as I'm thinking of fitting one to my gsa.
Thanks for a great channel
Really old video. Haven’t had that bike for years now. I have full akra systems on a couple of bikes and also other brands on other bikes
Akrapovic for me 👍👌
Steven
The angle of the camera and mic should be the same for a fair comparison. Yours is middle to back portion and the other is upfront only.
Tony Caro the microphone is directly behind the exhaust on a tripod. I’m also using a mic on my jacket. There’s no mic on the camera. It’s a completely balanced recording
@@ABIKETHING thanks for the reply. Sounded a little muffled on the second bike. Keep up the great work
I never understood why you would take the baffles out of a big touring bike, not really what they are about in my opinion. That's just my opinion & I'm sure there are lots of people who disagree.
Matthew Townsend Maybe some people like the sound somewhere between a Harley and a silent touring bike? To each their own I suppose. I personally like both under certain circumstances.
@@anonymoussource8334 Yeah I understand what your saying , fair point !! 👍👍
Matthew Townsend I have kept my stock exhaust on because when your in the saddle for 6 to 8 hours you don’t want the noise. I think the stock exhaust sounds superb. What I really love is the beautiful sound of the boxer engine that’s why I ride this bike. So I totally agree with you mate
@@buddysinsight9834 Long excursions are always better without the constant noise. I agree. I did, however, enjoy my Harley on short rides around town. Also, if you have another person with you, the quiet is nice, unless you really don't want to hear them. Hahaha.
Shameless Authenticity Seeker I have Misophonia so constantly hearing unpleasant loud noises drives me nuts. Leave the wife at home and enjoy the pleasant boxer sounds :) haha
Like the SC better
Akrapovic for me, however I'd have liked to hear the SC without the baffles (but know why you could not do that particular comparison). Before I'd invest in either, I'd want to hear both on an equal footing. Thanks for the video, Steve!
Does the OEM gsa 1250 have a removable baffle?
I think this is the adult equivalent of putting a playing card into our bicycle spokes when we were kids. That being said, I just shelled out $1200 for an Akropovic for my 2018 GS 1200 and don’t notice that much difference from stock. Oh well.
Akra sounds better,but you can not really compare the two because the other one still have the db killer on it,im sure that SC will sounds good as Well when the db killer will remove.nice video.
Well, obviously the SC Project sounded crap. I don't understand. Usually SC Project sound great on Ducati bike; Monster, Scrambler even the Hyper 950, best on Multistrada. How can it's sounded so bad like it's underwater. Interesting indeed. Akra exhaust note no doubt superb on GSA, but you should at least hear the Remus 8 for a comparison.
Yak Wui Bong I was just using what I had on the day .
Slightly off subject, and don’t mean to hijack yr post, but what screen have you got on yr 1200 GSA ?
I love the both sound of the bike...but I love the bike I want to have soon sir😊
I've got the full decat titanium ako system. It sounds amazing.
Yes no warrenty issues. Didn't need tuning or flashing. It sound amazing ..... the dealer installed it for me... I still cannot believe how light the system is ... it is feather light and looks the business
Hey Steve, do u have a vid of removing baffles from a stock bmw exhaust ? My 1250 gsa exh looks completely welded sealed when you remove the plastic end cap - so interested to know how u did it. Cheers.

I like the Akropovich better. You took the baffles out of this muffler, correct?
James Suttie correct
Hands down the Akrapovic all day long. 👍🏼
they both sound as well as the other really. I like the sound with out the baffle. with out the baffle I believe you get a bit more horse power. the sound with the baffles a bit stealthier not much back pop on the rev. down. good sound on the helmet coms. getting the itch to entertain the idea of purchasing a new motor scooter watching your videos. thumbs up
I have a SC Project S1 exhaust on my Triumph Street Triple and I love it. To be honest, I like the Akrapovic more on the R1200. The SC Project on the 1250 was to weak for me.
Have you de baffled the original silencer on the 1250 gs ?
Akra for me.
Akra best 👍🏻 ..... that new one sounds like a proper panzer on tick over 🤣🤣
Isn’t even the akra is pointed at the camera and de sc project is away from the camera
Do you really need 6 auxiliary lights???
PS4 DB Streams no.
The stock exhaust sounds better for me.
Remus is the best :-)
SC in black finish is best choice for me too, how did You keep on with waranty??
On dealership they told me that only with Akrapovic i Will keep on with waranty etc etc....?!??
My goodness, what dealership told you this??? What country?
A pity that both exhausts are not filmed from the same position.
did you ever used Unit Garage slip on ?
I prefer the Akrapovic, sounds meatier, the SC at idle sounds like bildge pump on s boat. hoever i prefer the size of the SC Project, its much neater,
Akra all day
Akrapovic👌
Would love to see / hear a comparison of the remus8 and akra
Re-do with the sc baffle out... pleeez Drive by clips with the Akro sounds great!!
Lenny Kibbs I can’t. The bike does not belong to me and it’s now gone back to the owner who lives 3 hours away.
@@ABIKETHING Understood, sound is probably close?
Removing the db killers on a high dollar can just sounds like Harley Davidson syndrome. A quest for days of yore.
Louder the better
No drive by with the SC project?
Akrapovic for sure. Did you do a slip on or full exhaust system?
Just slip on
@@ABIKETHING Thanks for the response. I started watching your videos and found my answer. I appreciate your content and what you are doing. Cheers
The SC on Idle sounds like there is water boiling in it… I prefer the stock… sorry but my taste.
Unfair comparison due to camera placement. Lots of waffle, video could have been 2 or 3 minutes shorter
Guys, this is a stupid comparison, the R1200GS is Euro 3... The R1250GS is Euro 5!!!
Akrapovic is better. The SC burble at tickover is horrible. I hope you didn't scare the dog too much!
As I would like to have the logo of your channel on adhesive, for the trunk of my bike
Akrapovic for me..
Me encanta…suena muy bien el akra…pero ha perdido el petardeo al cambiar de marcha como el de serie, me parece…No obstante suena muy bien.
The SC project sounds good for the GS
I have Akrapovic with baffle on 1250 GSA,I bet next time when we are out of this Covid-19 lockdown you do European trip you will wish you left baffle in after 4h to 6hrs you head will be buzzing..
Billy4x4 I bet I don’t. I’ve done many road trips and our usual time in the saddle is 5 to 7 hours a day. I’ve had three GSA’s since 2014 and always removed baffles. I wear ear plugs but that’s still to eliminate wind noise not bike noise.
Akra loves to burn the rear plate try a Remus black hawk
Ak-ra-povik
akra baffle out and sc baffles in .. different angles ... comparing apples with oranges
Yours sounds better
I`m sure, Akra is without DB-eater
Akrapovic sounds better even at low reps
Sc project sound more throaty.
In video SC sounds better.
Online shopping for new exhaust. . . . Check
Akrapovic 1000 times
The SC at idle sounds like a wet fart.
Ack row po vic
This!!
Akra 4 the win…. The other thing sounds like diarrhea…SCRap
SC = Sounds (like) Crap...
Akra all day with Baffles OUT! Period.
Akrapov
The sc sounds like a long wet fart at idle
SC sounds baffled
None of it ! Death sound no soul
Sounds like wet fart
