Arrow Competition Evo Full System Exhaust Stainless Steel / Titanium / Carbon – Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2017–2023) 71160CKR

The Arrow 71160CKR Competition Evo is a full exhaust system born on the circuit and shaped by decades of Arrow racing heritage. Engineered exclusively for the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 from 2017 to 2023, it pairs a stainless steel header with a titanium slip-on silencer and carbon end caps — a combination that delivers a purposeful, race-bred aesthetic alongside genuine weight and performance gains.

Key Features

• Race-use only full system, purpose-built for the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2017–2023)
• Stainless steel header for durability and heat resistance at sustained high rpm
• Titanium silencer body and internals keep overall system weight to just 5.60 kg
• Carbon end caps add a sharp, premium finish consistent with Arrow's racing lineage
• Removable dB killer for flexibility between track sessions and noise regulations
• Outlet diameter of 58 mm and silencer length of 300 mm matched to GSX-R 1000 exhaust geometry

Design, Finish and Heritage

Arrow's Competition Evo range represents the direct transfer of MotoGP and WorldSBK development knowledge into a catalogue product. The 71160CKR reflects this lineage in every material choice: the stainless steel header resists the thermal cycling of track use without discolouration or distortion, while the titanium silencer acquires the subtle heat-blued tones that mark a system that has been ridden hard. Carbon end caps complete the assembly with a nod to full factory specification, giving the GSX-R 1000 the visual identity of a properly prepared race machine. The finish is not cosmetic afterthought — it is the natural result of choosing the right material for every component.

Performance and Engineering

The Competition Evo system delivers a measurable increase in both power and torque across the rev range, achieved through optimised header diameter, collector geometry and silencer internals tuned to the GSX-R 1000's engine character. At 5.60 kg the system represents a meaningful reduction in unsprung and overall mass compared to the stock exhaust assembly, improving chassis balance and throttle response. Arrow recommends a bespoke ECU map to realise the full potential of the open exhaust and ensure clean, linear throttle pickup under race conditions.

Fitment and Compatibility

The Arrow 71160CKR Competition Evo full system is a direct, bolt-on fitment for the following motorcycle:

• Suzuki GSX-R 1000 — model years 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023

This system is designed for track use only and is not road legal. A custom ECU map is strongly recommended following installation.
