Product Information

Product Overview

Give your Honda CB1000 Hornet a distinctive premium appearance and exhaust note with the IXIL Xtrem Carbon Silencer. Designed as a compact slip-on exhaust, it combines lightweight construction with a full carbon fibre body for a purposeful, race-inspired finish.

Both the silencer body and end cap are manufactured from 3K carbon fibre with high-temperature epoxy resin, displaying a bright carbon weave complemented by anodised aluminium trim.

CB1000 Hornet SP – Important Exhaust Valve Information

The CB1000 Hornet SP is equipped with an original exhaust valve. When fitting the IXIL Xtrem Carbon silencer, this valve is bypassed.

We recommend removing both exhaust valve control cables – one from the exhaust valve and the other from the servo actuator. Although removing both cables is not strictly necessary, leaving a cable in place could cause problems if it becomes restricted or unable to move freely, potentially placing unnecessary load on the servo motor.

The IXIL link pipe incorporates an internal twin-pipe design to replicate the effect of the original valve configuration:

· At lower engine speeds, exhaust gases are directed through the larger internal pipe.
· As engine speed increases, gases can flow through both the larger and smaller internal pipes.

Standard CB1000 Hornet: The standard model does not use the same exhaust valve configuration, so these additional steps are not required.

For a useful visual explanation of how this type of exhaust valve operates, see the following video. It demonstrates the EXUP valve on a Yamaha R1, which operates using a similar principle:
