DescriptionThe whole story▼
Akrapovic names exactly one exhaust for this damper: the Slip-On Line (Carbon) S-B10SO16-HZC. That system does not appear in the price list this shop buys from, which is worth establishing before an order goes out rather than after.
Key Features
- Made for one specific silencer, the Slip-On Line (Carbon)
- For the S 1000 R and M 1000 R roadsters from 2021
- The named slip-on is not currently listed — confirm compatibility
- Akrapovic publishes no decibel figure for this damper
- An optional part, not something missing from the exhaust
One Silencer, Not a Family
Some Akrapovic dampers fit several systems. This one is specified for a single part number, and a damper is a close-tolerance component: it sits inside the outlet and its diameter and length are matched to the muffler it was designed around.
That makes the compatibility question sharper here than on most accessories. A damper that does not match either falls out or does not fit at all.
Confirm Before You Order
The slip-on Akrapovic names is absent from the current list, and this shop carries other systems for the same motorcycles. Whether this damper suits one of them is a question for the distributor, who can check it against internal data the public catalogue does not show.
One message, and the answer is definitive. On a part this specific it is worth the wait.
The Roadster, Not the Superbike
The S 1000 R and M 1000 R take the RR's engine, detune it and put it in a naked chassis. They have their own exhaust arrangement, which is why this damper is a separate number from the one for the S 1000 RR.
The two look similar in a listing. The model on the tank settles it.
No Published Effect
Akrapovic gives no decibel figure for this damper, unlike the one for the RR's race systems. Nothing is estimated here, and a rider who needs to hit a specific number should measure the combination rather than assume it.
What is certain is the purpose: to bring the reading down for venues that require it.
Why a Carbon Slip-On Needs One
A carbon-sleeved silencer is lighter and, in most designs, less absorbent than a steel-cased one. That is part of why it sounds the way it does — and part of why a removable restrictor exists for the days when it needs to sound like less.
Where It Sits
Inside the outlet, held by a fastener through the end cap, and visible from behind once it is in. That position is why a damper has to match the silencer it was drawn around: a few millimetres of diameter decide whether it seats at all.
It Is Not Missing From the Box
The slip-on is complete without it. Akrapovic sells the damper separately because most owners never need one, and there is no sense in adding cost to every system for a minority requirement.
Road Approval
Not applicable in the usual sense. A noise damper addresses a circuit's static limit; whether the motorcycle is road legal depends on the silencer and its own approval.
