Exhausts Cagiva Raptor 1000

The 90° V-twin derived from the Suzuki TL1000, mounted on an MV Agusta trellis frame and dressed in Miguel Galluzzi's signature design: the Cagiva Raptor 1000 is one of those projects that could only have been born at a very specific moment in Italian motorcycling history. Produced between 2000 and 2005, when Cagiva still controlled both Ducati and MV Agusta, the Raptor was able to draw from the best of three different worlds. Top-tier components - Marzocchi upside-down forks, Brembo Gold Series braking system - and a liquid-cooled Japanese engine with electronic fuel injection, capable of around 110 HP on a dry weight of approximately 194 kg. A muscular naked bike with a strong low-end character and generous torque that still makes it a seriously fun ride today, both on the road and through mountain twisties. If you're looking for exhausts for Cagiva, here you'll find solutions designed specifically for the Raptor 1000.

Our products for this model are slip-on silencers, designed to replace the original lateral end cans (right and left) while keeping the headers and the rest of the stock exhaust system fully intact. The fitting kit is included in the package and the mounting points are compatible with the original ones, so installation does not require any modifications to the existing exhaust structure. We do recommend having the work done by a qualified mechanic to ensure proper tightening and alignment of both silencers.

Replacing the two original silencers with an aftermarket pair brings tangible benefits. The first is weight reduction: the stock end cans on the Raptor 1000, like many naked bikes from that era, are quite heavy, and the weight saving is noticeable especially in low-speed manoeuvrability and direction changes. The second benefit is the exhaust note: the Raptor's V-twin already has a distinctive voice of its own, but aftermarket silencers deliver a fuller, more defined sound with a tone that better complements the engine's power delivery, particularly in the mid-to-high rev range. We're not talking about a radical transformation, but a noticeable improvement in the bike's acoustic character.

All the exhausts we offer are handmade in Lombardy, in the province of Bergamo. Each pair of silencers for the Raptor 1000 is made to order, and every single piece goes through a quality check before dispatch. Sold directly, with no intermediaries: the people who answer your questions know these exhausts inside out, with everything that implies in terms of support and a direct relationship with the customer.

In the product page, you can select the version with a catalytic converter via the dedicated drop-down menu. The catalysed version allows road-legal use and is the right choice for those who want to keep their bike compliant without giving up on replacing the end cans.

Each silencer comes with a standard dB killer already fitted. The dB killer is not officially removable: its removal voids the product's homologation. Where available, the No-Noise version can also be selected, featuring a welded internal filter that further reduces decibel levels without significantly affecting performance. This option is also configurable directly in the product page.

Since only the silencers are being replaced, ECU remapping is not normally required. The Raptor 1000's fuel injection system handles the slight change in exhaust back pressure without issues, and no specific electronic adjustments are needed after installation.

Up-to-date production lead times are always visible during checkout. Once your order has been dispatched, you will automatically receive a tracking code to follow the delivery.

For any technical questions or queries about compatibility, we invite you to check the FAQ section or contact us directly via the Contact page or the website's live chat. We're happy to help and will get back to you as quickly as possible.
