[URBAN LEGEND]

I decided to remove my boom box while I wait for thr Akra link pipe to arrive. I took some pics for those that have been living in a cave and have never seen the boom box. I will post pics of the Akra link pipe when I get it this coming week.

Extra muffler on the 08-09s, apparently.

Thats why it is coming off. The boom box is covered by black body work though.

It's to add weight to make sure the other liter bikes can stay with the 10r... LOL

So it's essentially an additional muffler?

Pretty much.

I have no idea why they even bothered with the "boom box" because it appears that there is no packing material in there. The sound reduction is really minimal. If Kawi had welded a cherry bomb glasspack it would have done a better job.

Also, the "boom box" is one heavy piece! The extra weight loss from it's removal is welcome. If you look at exhaust weight savings from a full system, the Gen 3 ZX10R loses more than most. Only ditching the dualies of the K8 GSXR1000 save more weight. If we had any cost cutting (using stainless instead of ti), I am happy that Kawi chose to go cheap in this area as most people modify exhausts on sportbikes anyways.
