Transforming My PANIGALE V4R: AKRAPOVIC Under-tail Exhaust Installation

Well it took like a good minute or two to getting around to making this video, oops. But it sure was fun to work on something from back in the summer cuz boy do I miss the riding season right now. Hope you all enjoy watching the gang throw an exhaust on the V4R in 11 minutes of finely edited video.
Of course what would it be if it wasnt a last minute "I'm barely going to make it to the race track becuase I dont think my bike will even be back together" story as well lol. It went reallty down to the wire on this one but we made it happen somehow.
Thanks for watching guys and I'll see ya in the next one!

That wheelbarrow Akra is ABSOFUCKIN'LUTELY SICK !!!! GREAT JOB MAN !!!!!

[@mrshowtime79]

Definitely a lot of work but completely worth the outcome. I can't wait to pick up my V4S next month. I can't wait to start making videos again at a whole new rider level with my new bike. Wish you could help me install it on my V4S since you've done it twice.

Congrats excellent exhaust choice.

[@michaelj.kastner5165]

My hat is off for you to tackle such a massive project on a $50,000 motorcycle 🎉🎉

[@desmoholic.racing]

Thanks man!

[@anthonydemola]

Could you do a huge favor? I need to see how you relocated evap canister hoses. I know to plug up the short curved one connected to valve. What do you do with the other lines ? possible to show a video?

[@desmoholic.racing]

I don’t have the bikes on me right now so I can’t show anyone or make a video but I’ll try maybe in the future sometime

[@anthonydemola]

@@desmoholic.racing okay sounds good. , appreciate it even if you do a RUclips short of it just so I have an idea . Thanks 🙏🏼

I have the exact same setup on my 2023 v4r. The power difference is enormous with the Racing Pro upmap from Ducati. I was doing 324kmph+ on straights with more than 1500 Rpm left without the Corsa oil

[@TrickRacing]

Fuck Ducati’s upmap. Get it tuned by a racing team

[@nvetro]

Don’t forget to remove the very thin plastic protector that is on the carbon heat shield. I’ve noticed people mentioning about the poor quality of the finish on the Akra carbon exhaust cover for this exhaust, but it ended up just being the thin plastic protector.

[@desmoholic.racing]

Yeah we took it off lol

[@DannteA]

Nice v4 r👌what ecu do you using to do the mapping for Akrapovic dual exhaust.?

[@desmoholic.racing]

The ECU is all stock and its flashed with the tune straight from Ducati

[@mattsloop2736]

Now i see why its 10k for an exhaust lol. Im on the femce about buying a V4 or an R1 i already own a Ducati monster and love it

[@desmoholic.racing]

It's still crazy it's 8200 bucks but yeah it is engineering art thats for sure. Im biased but I vote V4 lol

[@sp00ky1969]

Huge amount of work to fit this exhaust. 😂

[@desmoholic.racing]

You bet it is hahaha

[@allnighterist]

Youre not gonna tune your bike after the exhaust install?

[@desmoholic.racing]

its tuned from Ducati, I did it in the video

[@ItsDuct]

Running this on your other bike, do you notice the heat with the exhaust being up high like that?

[@desmoholic.racing]

Nope not at all actually

[@rl_31123]

looks like a 10-15 hour job

[@desmoholic.racing]

Yeah it’s about 12 it’s a fair bit of work. 12 hours if you’ve taken apart a V4 before. 20 if you haven’t

[@TrickRacing]

Hopefully it goes better then the 6,000 exhaust Campisi put on his v2. He lost 2 horsepower lol
