DescriptionThe whole story▼
An adventure motorcycle that cannot legally be ridden on a road is a contradiction, and that is what this header makes of a Transalp. Akrapovic says so directly: fitting it ends the EC and ECE certificate that the titanium slip-on carries. Anyone who bought a Transalp to travel on should stop reading here.
Key Features
- Ends the road approval the Slip-On Line (Titanium) carries
- A little under two kilograms lighter than Honda's own header
- Wider tubing, and the factory catalytic converter comes out with the old part
- 1.6 kW more at nine and a half thousand rpm
- Three and a half newton metres more at 6,700 rpm
- Bolt-on fitting; a remap is advised but not demanded
- Closed course competition use only
Who Buys a Track Header for a Transalp
Not many people, and that is worth being honest about. The Transalp is a travel bike. But Honda's 755 cc twin has found its way into rally-raid builds, desert racing and closed-course events where noise and emissions rules do not apply, and those machines are what this part is for.
If the motorcycle stays on public roads, the titanium slip-on on its own is the correct purchase and it keeps its paperwork.
Titanium, Not Carbon
Akrapovic pairs this header with the Slip-On Line (Titanium) for the Transalp. The equivalent header for the CB750 Hornet pairs with a carbon slip-on instead, because Honda's two machines get different silencers even though the engine is shared.
That is the practical difference between the two headers, and it is why they carry separate part numbers despite identical measured figures.
The Same Engine, the Same Numbers
Akrapovic publishes identical gains for both headers: 1.6 kW at nine and a half thousand revs and three and a half newton metres at 6,700, measured with the matching slip-on in place.
Whether the Transalp genuinely reproduces the Hornet's dyno run or the sheet was carried across, the manufacturer does not say. The figures are quoted here as given.
Fifty-Three and a Half Per Cent
That is the weight Akrapovic says comes off, and it works out at just under two kilograms. Almost all of it is the catalytic converter and the shielding around it, low down and forward of the engine cases.
On a motorcycle of about 208 kg it will not change the handling on its own. It is a sensible saving in a sensible place.
Bolt-On, With One Caveat
The header goes on without fabrication. On a Euro 5+ Transalp with two lambda sensors, the dashboard will light up once the ECU registers that the converter's readings have changed — expected, not broken.
Akrapovic advises a remap for throttle response and durability without demanding one. A machine used competitively should have it anyway.
Wider Tubes
The tubing diameter is larger than Honda's, which is where the flow improvement comes from once the converter is out of the path. It is a straightforward piece of engineering and it is why a header can add power that a silencer cannot.
Road Approval
None. This product does not meet emission compliance requirements for street or highway use, and it invalidates the certificate the slip-on came with.
