- Опубликовано: 8 мар 2021
- What's old is new again! Join me as I toss some 'vintage' 2017 KTM Duke 390 exhaust on my 2020 Vitpilen 401 - no need to order up 2020 specific exhaust when the old versions go right on!!!

Dude this is EXACTLY what we needed. Perfectly filmed, short and to the point, no bullshit, good music. Keep it up!
This is super useful information, especially for 2020 Svartpilen owners who lost some ground clearance to the new exhaust
cant believe i didnt find this sooner
A man just how we like it down with the job in hand ..... And no BS .... Thank you for the night straightforward information .... Regards from the UK 👍
Great video man, real quality.
This is absolute public service there! Thanks buddy!
Wicked video man
Thanks for this!
this dude is badass.
I have a 2019 and been looking for something like this cause it’s so stupid that they would go through all the trouble of making it the more “off road” capable version but have the exhaust route underneath.
Great video!! Have you filmed a cat delete video for this same exhaust? Thanks and more powah!
nice crocs!
"Work boots"
After changing band pipe how much ground clearance is increase after 145
Thanks for the video. I'm in the process of doing the same conversion and am just waiting for ebay parts to arrive. I did notice the 20-21 has a different evap system that looks like it gets in the way. I've been studying your video almost frame by frame to see how you got it to fit. Looks like you relocated the solenoid and removed the evap can from time stamp 4:50-4:51. Can you share more details on this? Thx.
Nothing was removed but you will have to relocate the hose to the outside of the frame. Nothing more than a zip tie or two. Best of luck!
Wow! Subscribed! Been waiting for this vid for months now. Im a new rider, got a svartpilen 200, 2020 model here in the Philippines. You think this’ll work with my bike? I can see we have the same exhaust design. It also goes under..
Maybe? I’m not familiar with the 200cc engines. Only one way to find out! Let us know
sick video man! is the pre muffler oulet location the same for hr the 18/19 and the 20+ model? worried the pipe from pre muffler and exhaust wont be the same for the 2 models
It is not. You have to use 100% of the 17-19 exhaust or 100% of the 2020+ exhaust. Nothing is interchangeable across the two versions with the exception of the mounting points and the oxygen sensor.
Thank you for that video !
Did it change the behaviour of the bike in any way ? Maybe a bit more like the previous model ? Any impact on the quishifter? Also do you think a remap would be required ? Cheers!
That’s hard to say. I did the pipe after a long winter so the previous behavior wasn’t fresh in my mind. I don’t think it really makes a huge difference as far as power or weight bias but I could be wrong. So far it runs perfect, shouldn’t have affected the tune that much. Shifting is the same awesome as ever!!
@@RuckusGarage Thanks!
Make video on lowering of this bike plz I'm from India
Hi There, very nice video! I am considering another funny point, and that it is the fuelt tank. Do you think it would be possible to fit duke 390 tank to svartpilen? Those extra 3 liters would be great to have...
That could be very cool! If I had to guess it would be an all or nothing swap, basically you’d have to take the Vit down to the frame and use Duke plastics. Try it! Report back!!
Curious if some of the skid plates for the pre 20’ model fit now that you have tho old style exhaust
They absolutely should, please try and report back!!
im having problems with my slip on i have a 2020 vit and switching to the 18/19 system but i only bought the slip on so far and it seems like the slip on bolt does not line up, would it line up when i buy the 18/19 chamber? edit. i know the newer system does not work with older i mean when i buy the rest of the older model system will the slip on bolt line up
You got it, it’s all or nothing. 2017-19 and 2020+ swap as entire systems not the individual parts
Man this is such a quality video. I an looking to do something similar. I have a 2022 svartpilen and I will be purchasing an exhaust from a 2019 svartpilen. Please tell me if you left the old oxygen sensor on the bike or did you have to get a separate one for the duke 390?
I’ve got the entire exhaust on eBay right now if you’re looking. I used the 2020 sensor as the wiring is longer.
Man thanks a lot for the swift reply. I am not interested In purchasing that exhaust. I've been researching about this project for so long. There are still some uncertainties, but slowly the puzzle is being pieced together. Thanks man.
Hello, can you share where did you buy that's part? Thanks very useful video
I found the entire exhaust system used on eBay. Any KTM/Husky from 2017-2019 with the 373cc engine should work
do you think this will also work on a svartpilen 401 of the same year?
Absolutely! They’re almost identical save some stying, tires and bars.
Awesome video.......but is it possible to reuse the new catalytic converter and the chamber with the older model exhaust pipe?
Negative. It's all or nothing between the two variations. 2018-19 is one header, cat, muffler and silencer system and 2020+ is an entire other system. Nothing other than mounting points is shared.
@@RuckusGarage ultimately, if we want to be legally BS6 complaint; then we genuinely fucked untill and unless we come up with a custom built chamber to cat connecting pipe 😁
Any updates on how it is preforming now, any difference in the fuel consumption?
y
Are the foot controls the same position on both the svartpilen and vitpilen ?
They should be yes. AFAIK the only major differences are the tires, seat and bars.
Does the stock 2020 silencer fit with the older model exhaust system, or is an older model silencer required as well? Thanks man!
It’s all or nothing, there’s zero crossover between the two versions aside from maybe the O2 sensor technically.
Great video, thanks! Can you comment on the reliability? Considering you’ve now have experience across both the older model and the 2020 model. Thx I’ve heard of ABS electrical issues and engine cutting out.
Without going into great detail I will say that the quality of the 2020 is noticeably lacking compared to my 2018. Not just the fit and finish, even the hardware seems cheaper.
@@RuckusGarage , wow, that's a surprise and disappointing. Would have thought husqvarna upped their game in the new iteration. I'm selling my current bike (2016 Triumph Street Twin) and considering getting the Svartpilen 401. Everything about it attracts me - except the question around reliability which has gotten me a bit nervous. thanks again for your response and safe riding!
does anyone know if this duke exhaust system will work on 2023 vitpilen?
It should! Nothings changed from what the internet can tell
@ 4:40 - whats that black connection hanging off the exhaust pipe?
Oxygen sensor
Which frame sliders you got on there

hi, is there any sensor that u need to remove along with the Cat? thanks
No, the only sensor is the 02 and it’s pre-cat and has to remain.
I'm just curious what were those plastic parts you took out at 3:06?
That’s the ignition coil. It has to be moved out of the way to snake the oxygen sensor wiring out and gain access to the header.
Hi nice video, but where you take the old (2018-2019) pipe?
I traded the 2018 401 in for my 2020, all the stock exhaust went with that bike
@@RuckusGarage Ah ok, now it makes sens!
good stuff! but why did you trade from a 2018 401?
Three reasons: I love silver vehicles, the quick shift is amazing, and I actually made money on the trade in due to the supply shortages
So. What do you have here is a stock 2017+ KTM Duke 390 exhaust (header + cat) with extra SC Project slip-on. Did I get it right?
Yep that’s it. 2017-2019 technically.
@@RuckusGarage Thanks 👊🏻
does anyone know if this works for a 2022, I want to get a Austin racing exhaust but cant tell if the foot pegs will be in the way
Shouldn’t be an issue. When it comes to exhaust systems the split is 2018-19 and 2020-22.
@@RuckusGarage well it says 2017 to 2020 slip on so im guessing that's the first split, is it just the mounting that would be a different size? i have a 2022 so i just want something decent for my bike lol
@@zaks3911 the Svart/Vit didn’t exist in 2017 though. The Duke exhaust is the same but the split is still 17-19, 2020 is a completely different exhaust system and nothing interchanges between them.
Also do you have a link for the system?
I found it all used on eBay. Anything from 2017-2019 from a Duke 390 or Vit/Svart should work
What about the lamda which u got rid off? Do I need to switch it of in SW or just unplug and it shows no failure and is fine?
The stock 2020 O2 sensor is still installed. I just swapped it over from the old header.
Can u please write down the oem part numbers for the exhaus u have used?
@@jakubgottfried1228 Here's a link to a discussion we had, complete with part diagrams and numbers! Thanks for watching! hqvadventure.com/forum/threads/2020-vitpilen-401-exhaust-backdating.310/#post-3017
Bro from where did u bought that exhaust header
eBay! Used system of a 2017 Duke 390
So have you had any issues with heat on your rear shock since you did this?
I haven't noticed anything, it's exactly the same as the routing on previous years and I've yet to see any heat related issues on the 2017+ bikes.
@@RuckusGarage Awesome! Thank you for the reply.
where can I find the music?
The track is called At The Game by Max McFerren, thanks for watching!
Is it suitable for Husqvarna svartpilin 250...
That I can't say for sure. If the two versions share any engine/exhaust parts maybe... if you have a 250 try it and let us know!
@@RuckusGarage I have a question about wire connection with exhaust starting point with you disconnect, wht it is?
@@sameersawan5863 The coil pack needs to be disconnected and moved aside to gain access to the oxygen sensor plug
2019 exhaust and below were causing heat soak in admission & throttle body, inducing pinging and other issues... Also heat was an issue for the rider, mainly in warm climates.
The new routing (downwards) of exhaust system of 2020 & up solves heat soak induced reliability issues and rider comfort. Yes, at a cost of little less ground clearance. But we're not talking about Enduro bikes...
This video should be done quite the contrary: how to upgrade 2019 and below models exhaust to new 2020 & up style...
There are budget ways to decat and to de-chamber... Preserving O2 sensor and closed loop operation (save fuel) and increasing fueling in open loop operation to compensate lean moisture after increased air flow and exhaust flow.
All valid points and to each his own! I know there are a ton of off-road riders that are very happy to get that ground clearance back!
@@RuckusGarage Could wrapping the exaust prevent the heat soak? Would there be room to wrap the old exaust system for install?
Could wrapping the exaust prevent the heat soak?
@@miraclervs Yesssss! I highly recommend. But you have to disassemble, then wrap, and assemble everything again...
When you first changed out your header exhaust, did you have to install a new ECU?
I’ve never modified the ECU nor the tune
@@RuckusGarage I'm was hoping to do this to my 401 but can there be future problems if you don't install a new or tune the ECU? Also why did you choose not too? Please and thank you.
@@elijahcespedes444 This is my personal take on it, both my 2018 and my 2020 had aftermarket exhaust for thousands of miles with no issues. The oxygen sensor is located in the header pipe so changing anything downstream has little to no effect on what that sensor is seeing. In addition, any variations caused by the rest of the exhaust system should easily be compensated for by the stock ECU. I'd be open to an aftermarket tune but I refuse to use anything that's simply a piggy back 'one size fits most' with no end user adjustability.
With your new header pipe, did it come with its own oxygen sensor or did you use the stock oxygen sensor that came in the 401?
@@elijahcespedes444 the used 2017 exhaust came with a used sensor and IIRC that's what I put on just because the wiring was the right length. The 2017-2019 has a short wire and the 2020+ is much longer, either sensor will work for this swap
Which exhaust system is this one??
This is the header, cat and muffler box from a 2017 KTM Duke 390. Anything that has the 373cc engine from 17-19 should work (Duke, RC, Vit, Svart)
what about the o2 sensor?
I reused the 2020 sensor. Either would work the wiring is just longer on the new version
you didnt bet shit bro lol. You aint gotta lie to kick it
How is the heat on the hoses
No different than the 2017-2019 bikes that came before it. 2100 miles in and so far there have been no negative affects.
@Ruckus Garage Great work!
at 4:50 when you are placing the header there is a hose attached to the frame.
at 5:00 when you are placing the cat the hose is no longer visible.
You reroute the hoses over the cat? did you fix them with seals?
