When it comes to upgrading your touring machine with premium bmw performance superbike exhausts, the BMW R1200RT 2014-2018 deserves nothing but the finest engineering and craftsmanship. Our specialist exhaust system has been meticulously designed to deliver enhanced performance, reduced weight, and that distinctive exhaust note that transforms your riding experience. Whether you’re embarking on cross-country tours or enjoying spirited weekend rides, this exhaust upgrade represents a significant step forward in optimising your motorcycle’s potential.

The BMW R1200RT is renowned as one of the finest sport-touring motorcycles ever produced, combining comfort, technology, and performance in a package that excels across all riding conditions. To complement this exceptional machine, we’ve developed an exhaust system that maintains the R1200RT’s character whilst unlocking additional performance benefits that every rider will appreciate.

Premium BMW Performance Superbike Exhausts Engineering

Our exhaust system for the BMW R1200RT 2014-2018 is manufactured using only the highest quality materials and precision engineering techniques. Each component has been carefully selected to ensure durability, performance, and a perfect fit to your motorcycle. The package includes one stainless steel 304 CNC mandrel bent link pipe, one stainless steel exhaust strap, and one exhaust strap rubber mounting. These components work together seamlessly to provide a robust, reliable exhaust solution that will serve you for thousands of miles.

The use of 304-grade stainless steel is no accident. This material offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, which is absolutely essential for motorcycle exhausts that face constant exposure to the elements, road salt, and temperature extremes. Unlike mild steel alternatives that can rust and deteriorate within a few seasons, our stainless steel construction ensures your investment remains in excellent condition year after year.

The CNC mandrel bending process is crucial to maintaining optimal exhaust gas flow. Unlike crush-bent pipes which can create restrictions and turbulence, mandrel bending preserves the internal diameter throughout all curves and bends. This results in smoother gas flow, reduced back pressure, and ultimately better engine performance. The precision of CNC manufacturing also guarantees consistent quality across every unit we produce.

Installation and Compatibility with BMW Performance Superbike Exhausts

One of the key advantages of our exhaust system is that it’s been engineered to fit straight to the standard OEM downpipes on your BMW R1200RT 2014-2018. This direct-fit design means you won’t need to purchase additional adapters or make modifications to your motorcycle. The installation process is straightforward, making it accessible for home mechanics with basic tools, though we always recommend professional fitting if you’re not confident working on your motorcycle’s exhaust system.

The included stainless steel exhaust strap and rubber mounting provide secure, vibration-damped attachment that prevents unwanted movement and noise. The rubber component is specifically designed to absorb the natural vibrations from the boxer twin engine, ensuring your exhaust remains firmly in place without transmitting excessive vibration to the motorcycle’s frame or creating annoying rattles.

If you’re considering exhaust upgrades for other BMW models in your garage or are researching options for friends, we also offer premium systems for the BMW F800GT 2013-2020 and the BMW F750 GS 2019-, each designed with the same attention to detail and quality standards.

Performance Benefits of Upgrading Your BMW Performance Superbike Exhausts

Upgrading your exhaust system delivers multiple tangible benefits beyond simply improving the sound of your motorcycle. Firstly, you’ll notice a reduction in overall weight compared to the stock exhaust components. Less weight means improved handling characteristics, reduced unsprung mass, and potentially even a modest improvement in fuel efficiency.

The improved gas flow characteristics of our exhaust system can help your engine breathe more efficiently, potentially unlocking a few additional horsepower and improving throttle response throughout the rev range. While the R1200RT isn’t a race bike, every improvement in engine efficiency contributes to a more enjoyable riding experience, whether you’re overtaking slower traffic or simply enjoying the flow of your favourite roads.

The acoustic enhancement is another significant benefit. Our exhaust produces a deeper, more purposeful tone that lets you hear the character of the boxer twin engine without being excessively loud or antisocial. It’s the perfect balance between performance sound and responsible volume levels, ensuring you won’t disturb the neighbours when leaving early for a ride.

Quality Assurance and British Manufacturing Excellence

At Carbon Can Co Ltd, we take immense pride in the quality of our products. Every exhaust system undergoes rigorous quality control checks before dispatch to ensure it meets our exacting standards. We understand that riders depend on their motorcycles for everything from daily commuting to once-in-a-lifetime touring adventures, so reliability is never compromised.

Our manufacturing processes combine traditional craftsmanship with modern CNC technology, resulting in products that offer the best of both worlds. The precision of computer-controlled manufacturing ensures consistency and accuracy, whilst our experienced technicians provide the human oversight that guarantees each component is perfect before it reaches you.
