801 Slip-on / exhaust list

Ok awesome, thanks for the info. Mines now just a straight through pipe . I guess if we’re talking minimal loses it’s not a big deal for me, though I do like the idea of the fuel x pro - not the lite. I haven’t had any issues with stalling yet.
Yep correct, it’s an upgrade to the filter lid. I’m not worried about filtration/dust where I live, though you can get a power plate lid that’s more directed to the 790 adventure, with double filtration. Honestly I was addicted to the intake noise to the stage 2 induction system on my last bike so keen to get both lid and filter with fuel x pro with the exhaust for a listen!
I have a Coober ECU, did you have a fuelx or something similar? Just curious if that would make a difference.
Expensive? I dont have any experience with the fuelx and the reason I went with Coober was because it was neigh impossible to get the fuelx and if Id like a decat somewhere down the road I can with the coober.
Its easier to ride in traffic and slow speeds with less choppiness and perhaps a bit more omph down low but its not night and day difference. I wanted a fuelx/coober because I commute to work in a lot of traffic and the choppiness and me having to constantly slip the clutch at low speeds drove me insane.

Still prefer the look of the stock one and the Remus, but going without db-killer seems like a big plus point
what is your opinion on the sound? how is while driving compared to the others? more pops and bangs?
Same here; the stock brushed stainless steel Svartpilen muffler is still my favorite; to me it's part of the 801 design; and with the shortened db-killer it's absolutely perfect to me; it's not too loud.
Nevertheless I was curious and wanted to give these parts a try; but I did no testride with them.
The small mufflers without db-killer are definitely too loud (at least here in Germany to ride through towns); the big muffler was definitely better and with an added short db-killer it could be absolutely OK.

From the fittment the 800NK is the best; the angle a lenght of the pipe fit's quite nicely; but the muffler is too small/short and too loud.
The big muffler is less loud and the sound is indeed deeper / more bass; and with an added db-killer it should work fine.

I think the Akrapovic interests me most. Similar look to stock, with presumably better sound.
Don't expect too much from the Akrapovic; most people were quite disappointed of the sound; because of the Euro 5+ regulations most street legal exhaust are nearly identical.
But it's possible to remove the db-killer; it's just spot-welded underneath the cap; and without or with a shortened db-killer the sound seems to be nice.
