DAKAR 2025 - TEAM KOVE ITALIA Riders: Cesare Zacchetti and Ottavio Missoni
As the world eagerly anticipates the 2025 Dakar Rally, Team Kove Italia gears up for an exhilarating adventure. With riders Cesare Zacchetti and Ottavio Missoni at the helm, this dynamic duo is set to conquer the challenging terrains with unmatched precision and performance.
A New Era in Rally Racing
At the forefront of this ambitious expedition is the revolutionary SP-2 TITANIUM exhaust system developed by Hp Corse. This cutting-edge component epitomizes Hp Corse’s philosophy of "Every day, Everywhere adventure", showcasing not only technological evolution but also a commitment to structural quality and striking aesthetics.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the SP-2 TITANIUM exhaust features a redesigned aesthetic that includes ribbed conical end caps, enhancing both its look and functionality. The innovative design eliminates visible welds at the bends through a refined mechanical forming process, resulting in an exhaust system that is as elegant as it is robust. With a length of 400 mm, the titanium oval casing is complemented by a double-reinforced titanium support bracket, ensuring maximum reliability across all conditions.
SP-2 TITANIUM boasts a remarkable reduction in weight—39% lighter compared to the stock exhaust. This advancement not only contributes to better handling and maneuverability but also aligns perfectly with Team Kove Italia's goal of achieving peak performance.
The collector’s short design enhances overall firmness and optimal positioning, culminating in an impeccable aesthetic and functional outcome. Handmade TIG weldings performed by skilled artisans transform the SP-2 TITANIUM into a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. Each unit prominently displays the HP Corse logo, which can be personalized by adding the names of drivers or the team.
Hp Corse takes performance further by offering an optional non-catalytic stainless steel central link pipe upgrade, coupled with dedicated mapping developed on the dyno. These enhancements can unlock an impressive additional output of +7 CV at 9985 rpm and +4 Nm of torque at 7000 rpm.
Designed for seamless installation, complete assembly instructions accompany each product, ensuring that users can quickly get back on track. All components are fully interchangeable with the original parts, cementing their compliance and versatility.
