- WAZZUPP errbooodyyy so here is the process i had taken to complete the removal of the FULL DB killer assembly on the stock husqvarna exhaust, this process was very straight forward but had been a bit time consuming especially in the actual removal of the DB device, Remember to take out entire assembly drill very small holes around outside of the baffle welds and connect with a Dremel cutting wheel. after that process is cake !
ALSO Coat your Dremel area with nail polish or spray paint to prevent rust.
*NOTE*
This is one way to do this mod there are other ways that may suit your needs so take this information and use it for your own process!
here is a link for another method!

![[HOW TO] Svartpilen / Vitpilen 401 DB-Killer mod - SOUND!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6K3TwjZQQ_A/mqdefault.jpg)
The better option would have been to just cut dB killer to a shorter lenght. You wouldn't have to worry about giving it a surface finish later on.
This is such a great budget option!! Looking to get myself the svartpilen so thanks for this
Was thinking to do the same and it was so hard to find your video😅 thanks man 🤜🤛
Hi just watched your videos & loved the tail tidy one.
Have seen quite a few db killer removal videos now & the consensus seems to be to get a metal hole saw & drilling out the end of the muffler then removing the muffler from the bike to tip out the db killer & metal shavings.
So no rivet removal at all.
Anyway love your video please keep them coming
What size metal hole saw
Does the removal of this DB killer have no effect or is it not harmful to the engine?
Great job
Oh le boucher!
C'est vraiment pas beau pour le coup, je préfère encore garder le son d'origine mdrr et il est content en plus 🤦🏻♂️😂
I did something similar to my KTM RC I trimmed the exhaust down by 2-3 inches but kept the OEM look
@LuisOrozco Have you noticed any changes in terms of mileage and/or performance changes when you removed the DB killer?
I just bought the 2021 Svartpilen and I am convinced to remove my db killer.
I could do your process.
However, I think it would be easier to just dremmel or drill out the exit of the exhaust muffler then pull out the db killer. Doing so, I would not need to disassemble exhaust muffler and drill out & put on new rivets.
Is the process I’m thinking to do possible?
Thanks bruh.
Yea man I’m sure it would work just fine ! I just wanted to take out the whole assembly to prevent any potential damage ! Let me know how it goes !
@@Luis-xe9yn Thanks. I’ve actually learned a lot from your video which was my main point in watching. Keep the hacks coming! 🤙🏽
Hey man thanks for the Video! Have you had any issues with glass wool flying out? With the pipe out what's keeping the wool in?
Hey man So I’ve been running this thing for about a year and a half now and haven’t ever had that problem !
@@Luis-xe9yn thanks a lot dude! I have 2021 Vitpilen and I think the exhaust is a bit different, just waiting for the 600mi service to do this mod!
@@Nandu2794 have you done this mod? If yes, what's your experience with it?
@@shonith91 I have not - ended up just taking the muffler out and running it without one
Hey buddy! great hack tbh. Am 5'8" and 210lbs do you think the bikes suspension is under-dapmed? Im really thinking of getting one.
Nope not at all I’m at 225 and feel this bike suspension is perfect specially because I do tend to go on canyon runs with this bad boy !
@@Luis-xe9yn man... I've just found the perfect bike! I've been riding but inconsistently and I'm finally getting a daily. Btw would you ride around with the muffler delete or would the engine run lean?
@@sungalupe I personally wouldn’t because I like the stock can on the bike but I have a buddy who has been riding no muffler at all, since it is fuel injected you don’t have to stress about it to much as the bike will make the necessary adjustments, just be careful with cops looking to give out tickets lol!
@@Luis-xe9yn oh okay okay! More knowledge haha! Cops here in Manila have no problems with a loud exhaust. Looks like I'm going to fabricate a pipe after deleting the muffler so the exhaust is pointed down. Hoping to get the bike soon!
Im driving my vit' without the last exhaust muffler.
The Vitpilen 401 has 2 mufflers after the cat so, i think there is no harm done when driving without the last muffler.
But a little power loss is there with the removal but it aint much tbh.
The only reason why i still drive without the muffler are the pops and bangs now and then, if the bike is warm and you drive it down the street, play with the gas and shes poppin like a hero ^^
Your bike looks great, thanks for the upload. :)
thanks for watching man ! i was tempted to do the same but i love the look of that husky exhaust ! i was recently riding with a buddy who has a vit as well and doing the same thing you are i see why you dont want to put the muffler back on. the exhaust note is crazy load and throaty sound like a damn FZ-07 lol
2020 has a different exhaust than 18-19, FYI.
@@daytonasayswhat9333 true, i dont like the newer ones
Hey dude, what tail tidy (plate holder) have you got fitted, that looks nice.
Jason Poole hey man ! It’s actually a little tail tidy I got from amazon ! Did need small modifications to fit Absolutely love it and it’s super sturdy ! I made a whole vid on it if your interested!
Where should i get that tail tidy
right gabz?
Just did this to mine but a bit worried the pipe inside the exhaust is just hanging to one side
nice
jajaja...As an Architect I made all job without disassembling and with one tool in only 10 minutes.
how did you do it?
@@liefjorgen remover without disasembling...only cut around the hole with a round saw in a drill, remover the tube..thats all
@@jackorosenberg the tube can't fall inside? Worth doing?
@@liefjorgen you can fix the tube with wire, also with care you use the dremmel... a lot of possibilities...some other way you can introduce a sponge for collecting some fe..also the sponge have wire to retire all.
@@jackorosenberg how did you do it?
thank you for the video.
two questions.
If I were to.. let's say, ride it without exhaust, with cat only, would I need to remap, orrrr? I would do more offroad than intended with Svartpilen, and exhaust would get beaten on each fall to the right obviously, so keeping everything just under the bike would be cool.
also, rough estimate, how much % is it louder without the exhaust? can't tell from the video really.
cheers!
stavro hey man thanks for the watch ! So since the bike is fuel injected and does have the censor in place the bike should adjust to the difference w/o the muffler. That being said if you do plan on taking this thing off-road I would look into getting something like a shorty exhaust or even a Coffman exhaust if you planning on doing some off the track riding since the cat would have a gaping exhaust hole on the bottom on your bike and you really don’t want any mud or water getting in there.
To answer your second question yes, no muffle or pipe makes this bike butt shit loud lol!! Probably like 80 %percent louder I think I put a clip of the bike w/o the muffle here definitely would get some cop attention if you road it on the road lol
Love your content. Can we get a video of you on the bike? Also how tall are you?
Thanks man ! I’m 5-10 and riding video is at the end of the vid !
@@Luis-xe9yn do you have the suspension lowered all the way?
@@Wushername no I’m at stock height !
How much louder does this make it? I find the stock exhaust just a tad too quiet but don't wanna do this mod if it's like twice as loud. Not crazy about loud pipes. Sounds great in the video!
Honestly it’s not crazy loud just happy my bike doesn’t sound like sewing machine anymore…lol you get that nice braap effect for sure !
@@Luis-xe9yn Hey, thanks for the reply! and thanks for taking the time to document all your processes. You're one of the few video resources I've been able to find for this bike and I probably wouldn't have pulled the trigger on my 2020 if I never came across your videos. Eased a lot of my hesitancy for sure lol. Appreciate ya and ride safe! :)
@@ThePaperCIip I’m super stoked I was able to help bro ! And this bike is a butt load of fun youdef made the right choice !🔥
Bro is this possible to remove for duke 390 ?
Yup basically same exhaust
Aye man where you get the rear spoiler/grab rails? Cant find em anywhere
i got mine with my bike when i bought it from the dealer. Ask your local dealership or on Husqvarna website?
Luka hey what’s going on man ! I would try the Vitpilen forum and start a thread since a lot of people take the sissy bar off their bike or you can call KTM pro parts over the phone and have them order the part for you directly from Husqvarna
You should check out unboxmylife channel, the guy did a pretty dope cat delete! It’ll add an extra loud factor and it also looks super clean...also takes off a good 8-9 lbs off the bike
i did see that! he used a duke cat delete really tempted !! this simple db removal actually did alot in the sound dept though 100x better than before.
You should probably retune if you do that, though.
You breathed that fiberglass dude, not good...
terrible job
BASTAVA SOLO SVUOTARE IL SILENZIATORE SENZA ROVINARLO
this is way beyond my capabilities.. I have a 2019 vit and I wish it were louder..
Love your videos! I invite you to post your experiences and videos on the Svartpilen 401 Reditt Group: www.reddit.com/r/svartpilen401/
Ed Grant hey thanks man ! I’ll give it a look!
Where did you get the yellow gloves? The ones you have on when you started the bike?! Love the video btw @luisorozco
