Akrapović HP Slip-On Exhaust
I'm not overly concerned about aesthetics to be honest. The good thing about the Akrapović exhaust is that it passes noise testing with ease and is quieter when on full throttle going through the sound trap on track. I have also purchased the optional removable baffle for trackdays at Donington Park where at times the noise limits are even stricter than the MSV circuits. With hindsight, and as much as I like the Arrow exhaust, I would have probably opted for the Akrapović.

2D GPS Laptrigger
I've completed a fair few trackdays on my S1000RR now and the onboard laptimer is ok but the biggest drawback is it requires manual activation each lap. I've since spoken to alpha Racing and they have supplied me with a 2D GPS Laptrigger. This plugs directly into the accessory socket on the bike and displays automatic lap times based on a stored GPS starting line. Each time you cross the start/finish line it automatically displays the lap time on the dash. A tad expensive but highly effective and given that transponders and timing equipment are generally frowned upon at trackdays this is ideal.

2D GPS Laptrigger
The 2D GPS Laptrigger is supplied with a 2D adapter cable. You simply remove the right side panel, tank side panel and seat and follow the existing wiring. The adapter cable then plugs directly into the supplied accessory socket on the bike, so yes, it is straightforward.

No you cant, unless they have changed it for 2015.
Get the Solo DL and you will get all the Data to review that the BMW logger has plus you will see your laptimes

Choices, choices. How easy is the solo dl installation? Where do you fix the display on the bike?
You get a bracket in the kit that mounts it on the top triple clamp, plug a wire into it and the other end into your CAN bus, the plug under your seat that the alarm plugs into and thats it.
If you also buy the camera you can automatically overlay your data on the video.......like this...:-
