Akrapovič donate limited-edition exhausts to Day of Champions

Slovenian exhaust manufacturers Akrapovič will donate the first in a series of special edition exhausts launched to celebrate their 25^th anniversary to the Day of Champions, MotoGP’s annual charity day set to be held next Thursday at Silverstone.

The special edition slip-on exhausts are limited to only 25 pieces, available for a range of bikes – and have the added bonus of coming signed by a host of MotoGP stars for the charity day.

A pair of Ducati Multistrada 1200 exhausts come signed by Casey Stoner and Andrea Dovizioso, a set of Yamaha R1 exhausts signed by Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi, and Moto3 championship leader Brad Binder’s name on a KTM 1290 Super Duke R, and three-time world champion Loris Capirossi has put his moniker on the BMW S 1000 RR exhaust in his role as the MotoGP safety advisor

Speaking as the special prizes were unveiled, Akrapovič founder Igor Akrapovič says it’s a proud moment to be involved with the charity event.

“I am delighted that we will be supporting Two Wheels for Life alongside our partners in MotoGP. This is a very important charity that has done so much for the health of people in hard-to-reach villages in Africa.

“The Day of Champions at the British Grand Prix is always a big event that is supported by all the MotoGP riders and this will give us a chance to show our support and provide race fans the opportunity to own a unique part of our history, whilst at the same time raising valuable funds for a very worthy cause.”
