Akrapovic Exhaust Headers & Link Pipes
Headers carry exhaust gases from the engine; link pipes carry them between the engine and the silencer. This page has Akrapovic headers and headpipes, Y-pipe collectors, link pipes and mid pipes, mostly in stainless steel or titanium, for BMW, Yamaha, Kawasaki and Honda above all, with Suzuki, Aprilia, Ducati and Indian.
One section of the system
A header, collector or link pipe is one section of the exhaust, not a complete system. Check what each listing connects to: the listing for the Kawasaki Z 1000 header E-K10R3, for example, says it creates a full system when used with an Akrapovic slip-on. Some link pipes and collectors are Track Day versions, with /TD at the end of the part number. For a complete replacement, see Akrapovic Full Exhaust Systems.

Will it fit my motorcycle?
Model-specific titles name the make they fit, and usually the models. The Fitment section on the listing gives the exact models and years; check yours before ordering. Parts marked universal are not model-specific: check the manufacturer part number.
Is a header a complete exhaust?
No. It is one section of the system. A full system replaces the headers, the mid pipe and the silencer together.
