Apologies for not getting to your DM yesterday. I'll just post the same here.
Spark.it quality is superb.
I bought the dbKiller from MSS separately. I can't recall which end can I have off the top of my head, I think it's the same.
I have only used it in the UK twice. Passes the static no bother, but, I got a noise warning at Snetterton because of the quickshifter. I ended up short shifting. The noise regs are getting harder and harder in the UK.
Fitting was normal for an exhaust, first one I did and I struggled because I needed 3 hands, but for someone that's less cack-handed than me should have no issues.
You can see on mine the blend of the 2 pipes is very late, as it exits the back of the bike. This did lead to fitment issues with the aftermarket bellypan as it was built for the single pipe Akra.
Pics and a video (video works on my phone but not on my PC
)

Thanks Alex and all helpful information appreciate the response! Interesting I hadn’t noticed the way they consolidate the pipes into one just in front of the end can so can see that will be interesting! I’m also considering and Arrows system which isn’t like that from the pictures. Spark seems to be competitive pricing and good reviews from what I have seen so far.

HI.
We used Spark.it for 10 years on all generations of BMW. On the race track it showed excellent results.

I had the the Arrow Ti race pro on my Gen3 and that was crazy loud. The dB killer did work well though. So if you are going the Arrow route, choose an appropriate end can.
Aliexpress has a Black Friday sale on now and you can get an Akra copy, Ti, for £275 all in. System, no end can.

Not sure about the exact db’s but my mate has a full spark system on his 2024 m1000rr (I tried uploading a vid here but it won’t allow me so I’ve uploaded it to YouTube and you can only view it by this link) as it’s not my bike It’s not right to share it on YouTube publicly

Sorry just to check Alex you are saying you pass static test in UK no problem with the baffle in or out?Apologies for not getting to your DM yesterday. I'll just post the same here.

I can't remember. Deffo passes with it in. I want to say it was borderline with it out, but possible, 80% sure...But it was 100% not passing the drive by with it out without short shifting.
Mine is an older generation - I got it second hand.
The newer ones detailed here. The Force Evo is the quietest. But they don't say the RPM of the test.

· FULL SYSTEM (without dbKiller):
- The 107 db version is provided with the new Konix EVO silencer with carbon endcap (GBM8821)
- The more extreme version has Grid-o 114dB silencer (GBM8823)
- To reduce dB, Spark proposes the new evolution with the Force Evo silencer (104dB) with a carbon endcap with a very aggressive line to which it is possible to combine stainless steel or titanium manifolds (GBM8824T).
