On a big V-twin adventure bike that is the number that counts — an engine that pulls from just under three thousand revs is what makes a Pan America easy on a loose climb, and this pipe adds nearly seven newton metres exactly there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.59 kg where Harley's standard part weighs 2.51 — 76.5 per cent gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6.8 Nm more at 2,900 rpm and 3.7 hp more at 9,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemoves the standard pre-muffler entirely\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel, and no remapping needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor EU specification machines only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt ends the EC and ECE approval of the titanium slip-on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed course competition use only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Conditions, Both Hard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst: this pipe fits EU specification Pan Americas only. Akrapovic states that it was developed and tested on the European version and does not fit non-EU models. A machine imported from the United States is a different bike underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond: fitting it invalidates the EC and ECE type approval of the Slip-On Line (Titanium) it goes with. That slip-on is road legal on its own. With this pipe behind it, the exhaust is a track part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere Nearly Two Kilograms Hides\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe standard link pipe carries a pre-muffler — a chamber ahead of the main silencer that takes the edge off the noise before it gets there. Removing it takes the assembly from 2.51 kg to 0.59.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is 76.5 per cent, and it is also where all the extra noise comes from: static noise rises from 91.3 dB to 98.6 at 3,800 rpm. Seven decibels is a substantial change, and the pre-muffler was doing exactly the job it was designed for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNo Remap\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAkrapovic states that no ECU remapping is required. That is unusual for a part that deletes a section of the exhaust, and it is worth having: no dyno booking, no specialist, and the bike runs correctly the moment the work is finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA V-Twin, Not a Superbike Motor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Revolution Max 1250 makes 148 PS standard and this pipe takes it to 151.4, with the gain read at 9,000 rpm. On a 245 kg adventure bike three and a half horsepower at the top is not why anyone buys this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe torque is. Akrapovic places the largest gain at 2,900 rpm, which is where a loaded Pan America actually works, and that is the honest reason to fit it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Needs Alongside\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pipe is designed around the Akrapovic Slip-On Line (Titanium) for this motorcycle. That silencer is a separate purchase, and the figures on this page describe the pair working together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAn Hour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSixty minutes of workshop time. The pipe sits between the headers and the silencer, so both ends have to come apart, but there is no fabrication and no adaptation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Model Names\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe part covers the Pan America 1250 and the 1250 Special from 2021 to 2024. The two differ in suspension and equipment, not in the exhaust route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRoad Approval\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNone. This product does not meet emission compliance requirements for street or highway use, and it removes the approval the slip-on carried.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number: L-HD12SO1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEAN: 3831126408169\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBikes covered: Harley Davidson Pan America 1250 and 1250 Special, 2021 to 2024, EU specification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: optional link pipe, stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.59 kg against 2.51 kg standard — a saving of 76.5 per cent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: up to 151.4 PS from 148.3 standard; 2.7 kW more at 9,000 rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTorque: up to 124.5 Nm from 122.2 standard; 6.8 Nm more at 2,900 rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise: 98.6 dB against 91.3 standard, measured at 3,800 rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with: the Akrapovic Slip-On Line (Titanium)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemapping: not required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkshop time: about an hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproval: none; it also ends the slip-on's EC and ECE approval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Akrapovic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53630756847882,"sku":"L-HD12SO1","price":209.0,"currency_code":"BSD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/01_7f1fe94f-6476-4f37-9390-6995d24c3595.png?v=1788598900","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-bs\/products\/akrapovic-optional-link-pipe-stainless-harley-pan-america-1250-l-hd12so1","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
