Description
Akrapovic Optional Link Pipe/Collector (SS) L-D9SO1 for Ducati DesertX and Monster 937 2021–2025
Power: +3.2 kW at 8,600 rpm
Torque +5.6 Nm at 4600 rpm
Weight: -3.8 kg
Made of high-grade stainless steel, this newly developed link pipe replaces the stock pre-muffler—where the stock catalytic converter is located—resulting in a more direct flow of exhaust gases, designed to boost performance. Offering a massive weight reduction of 79.2% (3.8 kg) compared to the original link pipe, this option also increases power by 3.2 kW (4.4 hp) at 8,600 rpm and improves torque by 5.6 Nm at 4,600 rpm when installed on a Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system on a Ducati DesertX and compared to the standard stock system on Akrapovič’s in-house dyno. Delivering an enhanced, sportier racing sound, this track-oriented optional part has no EC/ECE type approval and has been developed for use on closed-course competition circuits only. It is a simple plug-and-play installation, and ECU remapping is recommended.
Once installed, the EC/ECE type approval for the Slip-On Line (Titanium) becomes invalid.
The Optional Link Pipe/Collector (SS) was tested and developed in conjunction with the Slip-On Line (Titanium) system.
