Following on from the old Gixxer/Jixxer debate, how exactly do you pronounce Akrapovic?

Is it:

a) Ak-rap-oh-vitch
b) A-crap-ov-itch
c) Ak-rope-oh-vik
d) Ag-rop-ov-ik

Does it really matter? Rolling Eyes

Everyone says things differently, its down to your local dialect or how you've just come to say it and it sticks.

Normal words like book, cook and look, chairs, stairs are all pronounced differently. So obviosly motorcycle related words will also be.

Just get over it and pronounce stuff how the hell you like.

From when i used to find it difficult to say Ackra-po-vitch - i called them a-crab-of-itch, or Ackro-bitch.
