Come on. The image is blurred in photoshop.

No Trellis · October 6th, 2012, 04:59 AM

The least we could say is no loop under the tail.....Rest is blurred.

Man thats as bad as any Yahoo news headline,always terribly written and misleading. No loop under the tail? course not,unless Akra using reactive camoflauge tech,so it appears invisible lol. Thanks for giving me a minor heart attack with your exclusive

,at the moment i am only living to see the day of the Akrapovic rendition. Money is under the bed to buy

But, as of my post, he made 100 people look!

RiderGary · October 6th, 2012, 06:46 AM

Not funny!

Guys sorry but this is no fake. This photo was taken directly from the Ak web site. I agree this is a horrible way to promote a new product. As for the rear loop, you'll notice this bike does not have any headers at all, so I doubt they were trying to incinuate their system does away with the rear loop. Here's a link.

He is correct, it says "intentionally blurred". But is IS titanium, what we are all waiting for. They are just trying to tease us enough so we don't buy anymore Termis!

Lotto · October 6th, 2012, 03:52 PM

What a tease. Even blurred it still looks better than the Competition Werks can. Lets get some more pics Akra!

supduc10 · October 6th, 2012, 04:26 PM

Just a month to wait,brilliant. This is gonna be the best birthday present i"ve ever bought.

Haven"t you heard the rear cylinder is redundant now. Its been turned into a single cylinder rocket powered bike now. Yep thats what ya can see mounted to bike and turned it into, The Acme Akra Rocket Sled. Meep Meep!!! ya also get some steel plates to glue to your boots,asbestos chaps and a harness. Just clip on to back of bike,light the fuse and your gone. No sitting down anymore,thats why the subframes removed. Less weight=more speed. Akra claim a 300mph top end,with a one use only 6second burn time. Think i"ll keep mine standard lol.

MeepMeep!!!!! W/Coyote

Stw · October 6th, 2012, 06:09 PM

They are doing what Ducati re. the Pani did last year,getting us all frothy at the mouth. All i"ll say is,if its anything like the bike and worthy to be fitted,then it sure as hell will be worth the wait. In the meantime lets just have a laugh.

George Villar · October 7th, 2012, 05:02 AM

Probably no rear loop because only the brake side muffler is installed. The loop will be there in my opinion. That's the only way to have equally tuned header length for torque and power. Akra is not a motorcycle manufacturer that can get away with teasers. They have pissed off a few people with this stunt.
