I'm pretty sure the engine is basically the same shape, but I'm not sure about the routing of the rear pipe through the swingarm/frame and where it picks up on the mounting points. I'm sure if you hold out someone will be along who had tried it....

Apparently Akras are not very good on SV's I believe Yorky Chris once said?

The oil cooler will be in the way on a pointy.
Curvy pipes run closer to the motor

By preference I would get leo or M4.

Akra is light but power curves I have seen do not show brilliant things.

I'm alright then, I've got M4 pipes with a Leo can..... Build quality on both is just brilliant, you really do get what you pay for.

Dont slate the Akro, mine has one and its 1bhp behind my mates with an M4 on same dyno with same mods but my bike is lighter by 2Kg.

Here is some proof of a power curve with an akro pipe
