Nothing is laid on top, so there is no layer to chip where the clamp bites and nothing that lifts when the silencer runs hot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a machine that is meant to see gravel and green lanes that property is worth more than it sounds. A coated finish takes a stone strike badly; a coloured surface takes it the way bare metal does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Dakar Shape\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpark named the design after the desert rally and drew it accordingly: a plain squared case that follows the Tuareg's lines instead of fighting them, with no carbon cap and no ribbing. On a rally bike the silencer is supposed to read as equipment, and this one does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn black it reads as even less. The Tuareg's trellis frame, subframe and bodywork are dark already, and a bare titanium can is the brightest object on the motorcycle; this version lets the shape register without the shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKeeping It Dark\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWarm water and a soft cloth. Electro-coloured stainless is far more robust than a ceramic coating, but a scouring pad or an aggressive wheel cleaner will still dull it over time. Road salt comes off easily if it is not left to bake on over a winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat You Are Not Paying Extra For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e649 euro, exactly what Spark charges for the titanium GAP0501TOM. That is unusual — most manufacturers charge for a finish — and it makes this a straight choice of appearance rather than a budget decision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe weight, the mounting, the connecting pipe, the sound and the approval are all identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApproved, and Nothing Else to Do\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEuro 5+ with a certificate issued by the Italian ministry after testing. The slip-on comes with its connecting pipe for the standard lateral position; the rest of the exhaust stays as Aprilia built it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat Comes Off, and What Stays\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpark replaces the silencer and its connecting pipe. The manifold, the catalytic converter and the lambda sensor stay exactly where Aprilia put them, which is why the Euro 5+ certificate covers the motorcycle as a whole rather than the part in isolation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting is an hour with hand tools. The lateral mounting position is unchanged, so the pannier frames and the rear rack go back on without modification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOn a Rally Bike, Black Ages Well\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bare metal silencer shows every mile of a dusty road until it is cleaned. A dark surface hides the same film, which on a machine bought for gravel and long distances is less a styling argument than a practical one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAprilia Tuareg 660, 2022 to 2026.
