Exhaust "E" mark
Does anyone know where I can get an Akropovic E sticker to put on my can, my marking has rubbed off and I believe you can buy Akropovic stickers to replace them?
MOT time and not sure if it needs one, if they only few pounds I will invest to be on the safe side. |
Re: Exhaust "E" mark
Thought Akrapovic stamped it on, or are you on about one of those universal "I am lying through my teeth as this is really a race can" 'E' marked stickers??? If so I wouldn't bother, if the they are gonna fail it without the sticker they will be the type to fail it with the sticker!

ask at the garage first shell if they would pass it before they mot the bike, u should be ok.

Re: Exhaust "E" mark
I dont think you need an "E" mark on your can now to get it through an MOT, it just needs to not be stamped with "Not for road use" or "Race use only" and it needs to not be stupidly loud and then it should go through. I think..
the blueflame can on my SV has no e-mark on it, and it gets MOT'd OK with the baffles in the can. |

I was told the same thing, if there are no markings it's up to the testers discretion Mine got through it's MOT with the akrapovic system fitted although i did have the baffle fitted |
Re: Exhaust "E" mark
What those 2 said - BSU/ E stamps are gone now for MOT testing.
It's up to the tester's discretion as to whether they pass on "noise" level. Got a scorpion on mine, no baffles. Think my MOT tester likes the sound of it though... :D |
Re: Exhaust "E" mark
They're right Shell, you don't need an E mark, it's down to the tester to decide if it falls within acceptable limits in his opinion. If it's marked as not for road use then he has every right to fail it without even hearing it. If it has not for road use markings then a simple piece of insulating tape over it is enough cos he's not allowed to take the tape off to see what's under it.
