Akrapovič Goes Neo-Retro with Its Latest Exhaust for the Triumph Scrambler 400 X

Akrapovič Goes Neo-retro With Its Latest Exhaust For The Triumph Scrambler 400 XAkrapovič has used retro styling to create an all-new exhaust for the Triumph Scrambler 400 X with the launch of the Slip-On Line (Titanium) for this modern classic motorcycle.

The muffler design was first introduced by Akrapovič in its line-up thirty years ago and, although it has had many updates ‒ such as the stainless-steel end cap with imprints, titanium belts, and a welded bracket ‒ the core design has remained the same. The latest incarnation is an exhaust that has been designed to follow neo-retro aesthetics and provide perfect integration with the lines of the Triumph Scrambler 400 X.

With a high-grade sandblasted titanium muffler outer sleeve, and the link pipe, end cap with imprints, heatshield, and muffler inner structure all made from stainless steel, the exhaust is finished with a monochrome logo sticker. The upper part of the muffler features a heatshield to prevent burns or damage to the rider’s gear.

Despite the retro look, the Slip-On Line (Titanium) is very much a modern exhaust. During the development stage the Akrapovič engineers also focused on throttle response and performance, leading to an increase in power and torque from the 398 cc single-cylinder engine of 0.7 kW (0.9 hp) and 1.0 Nm at 8,000 rpm when compared to a Triumph Scrambler 400 X equipped with a standard stock exhaust system and tested on the Akrapovič in-house dyno.

The use of lightweight materials will give the Slip-On Line (Titanium) a weight reduction of 39.5% (1.3 kg) against the standard stock system, and sound engineering has resulted in a deep and full tone. It is EC/ECE type approved and Euro5 compliant, and the straightforward plug-and-play installation means no remapping is needed. This Slip-On Line (Titanium) not only complements the Triumph Scrambler 400 X but also fits perfectly on the Triumph Speed 400.
