The muffler body is made of titanium, so delivers a considerable weight saving; the end cap, with a superimposed double exit, is made of carbon fibre “of the highest quality and gives the muffler an aggressive look with a slimmer and more slender line than the original bulky and heavy sheet steel mufflers”. The prestigious SC-Project logo, together with the name ‘Adventure Exhaust System’ is laser-etched on the muffler body with a "mud" effect to reflect the nature of the product. It is currently available in a street legal/EU regulation compliant version for Honda’s CRF1000L ‘Africa Twin’ and will soon be released for the Honda Crosstourer, BMW R1200 GS and KTM 1290 Super Adventure.
