AKRAPOVIC SLIP-ON SP SERIES EXHAUST SYSTEM for the:
SUZUKI V-STROM DL 1000 (2004) & KAWASAKI KLV 1000 (2004)
SP SERIES exhaust systems are made of high-quality stainless steel in order to make the given model of exhaust system more affordable. Since the Suzuki and Kawasaki are set up similarly, this Akrapovic SLIP-ON SP SERIES exhaust system fits on both motorcycles. The system is designed for riders who want to make a primarily aesthetic modification to their bike at a reasonable price. The system also includes a built-in noise damper, and therefore conforms to traffic regulations with regard to exhaust system noise levels for street use.
