    There are two to choose from.

    Here's the only one that I could find, and it's not what BRP is selling...

    Default Putting Akropovic Sport Touring Silencer Going On to My '10 RT-S This Week.

    Baffles in.

    I'll report on how it goes.

    I heard one on an RT last Thursday at a dealer. Had one with the akrapovic and one with a2 bros. the akrapovic didn't sound much different than stock to me. I think lamonster has a YouTube video with it on his ST. One with baffle in and one with baffle out.

    Being a completely street-legal piece; their chief advantage will be the HUGE weight savings...

    Bob captured my focus. Weight savings (WS). WS= better mpg, where ever one can find it ... including having lost 30 pounds off my own carcass since the end of February! That's probably nearly 50 lbs. off of Elvira, plus the better aerodynamics from the reduced profile Sport touring windscreen and the bump skid.

    I suspect the Akropovic is a bit more efficient as well. I like good components, while I still enjoy a quiet ryde.
