DescriptionThe whole story▼
When you strip the pillion footpegs off your CBR1000RR-R Fireblade to sharpen its track-day setup, this Akrapovic aluminium exhaust bracket is the essential link that keeps your exhaust system seated correctly. Machined from CNC-milled aluminium and finished in a black anodised surface treatment, part number P-X257 is engineered to complement every Akrapovic system available for the SC82 generation Fireblade — no compromise, no improvisation.
Key Features
- CNC-milled aluminium construction delivers maximum rigidity at the lowest possible weight — exactly what a track-focused Fireblade demands.
- Black anodised finish integrates cleanly with the CBR1000RR-R's aggressive bodywork and the visual language of Akrapovic exhaust systems.
- Direct plug-and-play fitment replaces the original pillion footpegs — no drilling, no fabrication, no additional hardware needed.
- Compatible with the full current Akrapovic exhaust range for the SC82 Fireblade, ensuring a precise, rattle-free mount regardless of which system you run.
- Genuine Akrapovic accessory, manufactured to the same standards as the exhaust systems it supports — correct geometry, correct torque points, correct materials.
- Suitable for both road and track use, making it the sensible choice for riders who run the same machine at weekends and on circuit.
Racing Performance at the Core
On a machine as focused as the CBR1000RR-R Fireblade, every gram saved and every bracket rationalised counts. Removing the pillion footpegs is a common first step for track preparation, and without the correct mounting point the exhaust system loses its engineered support. The P-X257 restores that rigidity through an aluminium bracket machined to Akrapovic's own tolerances, so the exhaust sits exactly where it was designed to sit — even under sustained high-rpm load on circuit. The result is an installation that looks as purposeful as it functions.
Build Quality and Finish
Akrapovic applies the same philosophy to its accessories as to its exhaust systems: material selection and manufacturing precision are never treated as secondary concerns. The P-X257 is cut from high-grade aluminium billet on CNC machinery, producing a bracket with consistent wall geometry and clean thread engagement. The black anodised surface treatment resists track chemicals, chain lubricants and general road grime without flaking or fading, keeping the installation looking correct through a full racing season.
Fitment and Compatibility
The Akrapovic P-X257 exhaust bracket fits the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade and CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP (SC82) for model years 2020 through 2026.
