Yes it does need to be tuned if you change the exhaust. Vortex or GET ECU, Exhaust, desmog and reed block delete. I've purchased a brand new KTM 500 2021 and I've gone through every possible setup on the bike but they are 10x more fun when properly modified. The bikes are detuned from the factory to be street legal and environmentally compliant.

Some bikes come with an aftermarket pipe installed as part of a package like the Factory Edition models. My 450SXF-FE came from KTM with the Akrapovic slip on and i really doubt that KTM has an alternate tuning for my bike compared to the base 450sxf.

I would imagine the off-road only lineup comes with a better fueling map than the 50 state legal emissions compliant EXC line does. It is well known that the EXC-F line starting in 2017 is on the lean side with the stock exhaust. Add more flow and it's very, very lean. The 1st gen 12-16 EXC's are a bit of an unknown because almost everyone put a euro map on them and I have never seen a dyno run on one with the stock map.

I did it to mine and it back fires like crazy which really isn’t great for the bike the ecu takes away the back fire popping

For some reason some of these bikes do it more than others. I guess I just got lucky with mine because a friend of mine has the same one and it was noticeably weaker stock than mine is

You want a new ecu. I have a 22 500 with a get ecu and custom tune from taco moto and a stock exhaust. I can do 5th gear clutch ups and I am 235lbs.

It's a little hard to get your hands on exhaust right now I waited months to get mine in. supermoto builds are sick though!

That’s bad information. You absolutely have to tune it, unless more racket is all you’re after.
@derrickhokit Жыл бұрын
Lol, you can eat chicken without cooking it too. But you shouldn’t. Bottom line here is the ecu isn’t designed to run with open exhaust. But it’s your bike not mine.
