1. Akrapovic Carbon Fibre Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,80,000)
The Akrapovic Carbon Fibre Slip-On is the most premium exhaust we list for the Z1100. It uses a handmade carbon fibre outer sleeve, end cap and muffler bracket over a high-grade stainless steel inner structure and link pipe, finished with a carbon fibre heat shield to protect your riding gear. The hexagonal carbon muffler gives the bike an individual look and a deep, sporty sound.
On Akrapovic's own dyno it saves 2.6 kg (51.2%) over the stock exhaust and adds 1.1 hp at 9,200 rpm plus 0.8 Nm at 5,100 rpm. It is fully EC/ECE type approved and plug-and-play, so no remap is needed. This is the pick for the Z1100 owner who wants the most recognised name in exhausts. WhatsApp us to confirm price and lead time.
2. CS Racing Full Exhaust System for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,40,000)
The CS Racing Full System is the only complete exhaust on this list and the loudest option we offer for the Z1100. Handcrafted in Brazil from 100% stainless steel 304 with precise laser cutting, stainless Allen bolts, reinforced fittings and a pressed fibreglass cover with hi-temp textured paint. A dB killer and an O2 sensor bung are included, and each piece is tested before shipment with a 1-year full warranty.
CS Racing promises an astonishing sound, better gas outflow, stronger mid to high rpm response and significant weight savings, with power gains achieved without any tuning (a race ECU map adds more). Important: every CS Racing full system removes the catalytic converter, so it is not Euro compliant and may not be street legal. It suits riders who want maximum noise and track-day character.
3. SC Project SC1-R Carbon Fibre Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,36,000)
The SC1-R is SC-Project's most technologically advanced slip-on, built in a dedicated Euro 5+ approved version for the Z1100. The body and end cap are carbon fibre, the link pipe is titanium, and it carries an aluminium riveted plate with a 3D-embossed SC-Project logo, the same as on their Racing Department parts. The asymmetrical outlet is hydroformed and the welds are handcrafted TIG.
It is the most powerful slip-on on this list: +1.9 hp at 8,800 rpm and +0.8 Nm at 7,400 rpm, with 3.6 kg saved (2.2 kg vs 5.8 kg OEM). Sound is deep and aggressive while staying street legal, and it ships with a homologation card and a 24-month SC-Project warranty. Plug-and-play, no remap.
4. SC Project SC1-R Titanium Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,36,000)
The titanium SC1-R gives you the same Euro 5+ approved SC1-R design in a high-grade titanium body with a carbon fibre end cap, titanium link pipe and a laser-etched SC-Project logo. Like the carbon version it uses handcrafted TIG welds and a hydroformed asymmetrical outlet.
Performance matches the carbon SC1-R: +1.9 hp at 8,800 rpm, +0.8 Nm at 7,400 rpm and a 3.6 kg weight saving, with deep, aggressive four-cylinder tones. Street legal with a type approval certificate, homologation card and 24-month warranty. Choose this one if you prefer the look of raw titanium on your Z1100.
5. SC Project S1 Titanium Matt Black Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,34,000)
The S1 Matt Black is SC-Project's S1 titanium muffler with an exclusive matt black ceramic coating, a hyper-aggressive slash-cut outlet and a carbon fibre end cap. It is made to match the dark Sugomi styling of the Z1100.
It weighs just 1.3 kg against the 5.8 kg OEM unit (4.5 kg saved) and adds up to 1.1 hp at 8,500 rpm and 0.6 Nm at 7,200 rpm. The tone is deep and aggressive while remaining Euro 5+ compliant, and fitting is plug-and-play. Great for riders who want a stealth look with a light, loud-but-legal slip-on.
6. Ixil DKAT Exhaust Header for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,30,000)
The Ixil DKAT is a catalyst eliminator for the Z1100, made from AISI304 stainless steel with a matt polished finish and weighing 3,660 g. It replaces the catalytic converter section, which is the part of the stock system that restricts flow and quietens the bike the most.
Ixil lists it as center stand compatible and OEM panniers compatible, and it does not carry CE approval, so treat it as a racing part. It suits riders who want a louder, freer-breathing Z1100 and plan to pair it with a slip-on. Message us on WhatsApp and we will confirm which slip-on combination works for your bike.
7. Ixil XC Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,25,000)
The Ixil XC (Xtrem Carbon) is a conical silencer made from 3K carbon fibre with high-temperature epoxy resin, a matching 3K carbon outlet cap and an anodised aluminium trim, in a bright finish.
It is compact at 256 mm long and light at 1,054 g, making it one of the lightest silencers on this list. Pick it if you want a full carbon look on your Z1100 at a lower price than the Akrapovic and SC-Project options.
8. Ixil RC Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,05,000)
The Ixil RC is a conical silencer in AISI304 stainless steel with a satin matt finish, topped with a conical end cap made from high-temperature carbon fibre epoxy resin in a sparkly finish. The logo is laser marked.
At 230 mm long and 1,020 g it is the shortest and lightest Ixil we list for the Z1100, giving the tail a tight, racy look. A strong choice for riders who want a short stubby silencer with a carbon accent.
9. SC Project S1 Titanium Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,05,000)
The SC-Project S1 Titanium is the raw titanium version of the S1, with a slash-cut outlet, carbon fibre end cap and a spectacular hand-welded sector link pipe in titanium. SC-Project calls it the perfect blend of lightness, design and sound.
It saves 4.5 kg over stock (1.3 kg vs 5.8 kg), adds up to 1.1 hp at 8,500 rpm and 0.6 Nm at 7,200 rpm, and is Euro 5+ type approved with a homologation card and 24-month warranty. This is the best value way to get SC-Project sound on a Z1100.
10. SC Project CR-T Titanium Slip-On Exhaust for Kawasaki Z1100 (₹1,03,000)
The CR-T is one of SC-Project's most iconic designs, born from MotoGP and Moto2. In titanium with a titanium end cap, titanium link pipe and a titanium honeycomb grid at the large outlet, it weighs only 1 kg against the 5.8 kg OEM exhaust, a saving of over 80% and the lightest exhaust in this list.
It adds up to 1.1 hp at 8,500 rpm and 0.6 Nm at 7,200 rpm with dark, deeper tones, and stays Euro 5+ street legal with plug-and-play fitting. Prefer carbon? The SC Project CR-T Carbon Fibre version is the same price at ₹1,03,000.

How do I choose the right exhaust for my Kawasaki Z1100?
Choose based on three things: how loud you want it, whether it must stay road legal, and how much of the system you want to replace.
Slip-on vs decat header vs full system
Slip-on: replaces only the end silencer. It is the easiest bolt-on, saves the most weight for the money and keeps the factory catalytic converter, so sound improves without going wild. Every SC-Project and Akrapovic option here is a plug-and-play slip-on with no remap needed.
Decat header: a part like the Ixil DKAT removes the catalytic converter section. This opens up the sound far more than a silencer alone, and is usually paired with a slip-on.
Full system: replaces everything from the engine back, like the CS Racing Full System. It gives the biggest change in sound and character, and benefits most from an ECU map.
Road legal vs racing
The Akrapovic, SC1-R, S1 and CR-T are EC/ECE type approved for Euro 5+. The CS Racing full system and the Ixil DKAT remove the catalytic converter and are not homologated, so they are best treated as track or racing parts.
Sound
For the loudest Z1100, go full system or decat. For a deep, aggressive note that stays legal, any SC-Project slip-on is a safe bet. For a refined, sporty tone with the biggest brand name, choose Akrapovic.
Pairing
If you go for the Ixil DKAT, pair it with a slip-on to complete the system. WhatsApp us before ordering and we will confirm the right combination for your bike.

Authenticity and Pricing Transparency
India has many fake stores selling fake exhausts, fake accessories and fake gear, often with no real product knowledge, and plenty of riders get scammed. A simple rule: if a store sells a branded exhaust far below, or even equal to, the international manufacturer price, it is almost certainly a fake listing or a fake product. Importing a genuine exhaust involves custom duty, service charges, handling and shipping, so a genuine product cannot be sold at or below the global price.
Only buy from stores with a long track record. We have been in business for twelve years, almost every rider in India knows us, and our owner is a well known supercar and superbike rider in India and Dubai. You can follow him on Instagram and YouTube, so you know you are dealing with a genuine company with many happy customers across India and worldwide.
