DescriptionThe whole story▼
One and a half kilograms off a bike that weighs 219 kg, taken from the highest and furthest-back point of it. The Akrapovic Slip-On Line (Titanium) S-B9SO2-HAPLT brings the BMW F 900 R and XR from 7.22 kg of exhaust down to 5.66 kg — 21.6 per cent — with a titanium sleeve, a stainless steel link pipe and pre-muffler, and a hand-made carbon fibre end cap.
Key Features
- 5.66 kg against the standard 7.22 kg: 1.56 kg and 21.6 per cent less
- Titanium muffler outer sleeve, stainless steel link pipe and pre-muffler, handmade carbon fibre end cap
- Small, compact build that sits inside the bike's own lines rather than hanging past them
- Side cases and the centre stand stay compatible, so an XR keeps its touring set-up
- EC and ECE type approved within the Euro 5 window
- Noise insert included, plug-and-play with no remapping
- Optional handmade carbon fibre heat shield available as P-HSB9SO1
What the Measurements Say
The gain here is 0.8 PS (0.6 kW) at 7,400 rpm and 0.6 Nm at 7,300 rpm, while peak power reads 101.3 PS against the standard 101.5 PS. In other words: the curve fills slightly in the upper mid-range and the very top is a fraction lower. On a Euro 5 parallel twin those are the numbers a type-approved slip-on produces, and inflating them would not make the exhaust better.
What is genuinely large is the 1.56 kg. That is the reason to fit this part, together with the sound — Akrapovic describes a deep, sporty rumble from the 895 cc twin, which the standard system suppresses almost entirely.
One Part, Two Different Motorcycles
The F 900 R and the F 900 XR share an engine, a frame and a subframe, but they are ridden by different people. The R is a naked bike; the XR carries a fairing, a taller screen, longer suspension travel and factory luggage mounts, and is bought as a light sport-tourer. The silencer mounting point is identical on both, which is why one part number covers them.
What that means in practice is that an XR keeps its pannier rails and an R keeps its clean tail. The installation is quoted at 60 minutes on either, longer than a typical slip-on because the standard unit is bolted at three points rather than clamped.
Fitment and Compatibility
S-B9SO2-HAPLT fits the BMW F 900 R and the F 900 XR from model year 2020 through 2026. Installation takes about an hour because the pre-muffler is part of the assembly. The BMW side cases and the centre stand both stay usable.
Road Approval
EC type approval and ECE type approval, Euro 5, certificates supplied and downloadable here. The silencer is a legal replacement part for road use in the European Union without an entry in the vehicle documents.
