I've managed to heavily scuff (sleeve and bottom cap) my previously perfect right hand slip on titanium akrapovic can on my gen 2 tuono (following a slip up at Snetterton). 

i want to replace it.

Markings on end can have an Akra part number 'MS-H8' and an 'e' marking of 'e1 0492')? 

I'm told that there are now discontinued? Is that right? There must be an equivalent Akra fitment for another bike?

if not, any ideas on where to source a new can and link pipe?

I also have damaged MS-H8 cans. 

They are discontinued but you can still order them (& the link pipes). They are special order items (rather than a stock part). If you contact the Akrapovic UK distributor (Performance Parts Ltd) they will be able to help you. 

I replaced mine a few years ago (after some scumbag nicked them!) and replacements back then only cost £250 a pop. I've just enquired and replacements now are £491 per can (titanium) and £147 for the link pipe. I think I will be living with the road-rash on mine...

That's great - as you say, an expensive vanity bill for road rash on a can, but thanks - I'll get in touch with Performance Parts UK.

See if Mark at MHP or PJ Engineering can help re-sleeve it. Worth giving them a ring. I thought PJ had started doing the Akro end caps, but can't find them on the website.
Question everything.
