Leovince Cat Delete KTM 390 125 200 250 Duke

If you want your Duke to sound louder then before you spend money on an expensive slip on, try this much cheaper solution which is louder than any slip on will be. It has the added benefit of keeping your rear shock cooler, ensuring longer life and reduced damage.

The Akrapovič manual says, that the clamp of the silencer should be mounted on the inside of the holder (on the side of the wheel). I think it is because of the pressure of the bolt on the carbon fibre

Hi! Love your videos. You recommended a piggyback fuel device in the case of a gen 2 bike. I have a gen 1 and I am considering doing the cat delete myself. Do you think such a device would be critical in the case of a gen 1 ktm duke 390 (2014-2016)?

[@MotoMirius]

Gen 1 bikes can also use a piggyback but also can have the stock ECU reflashed. Gen 1 is probably OK without the piggyback because it does not meet such strict emissions standards but to be safe, it's a good idea to fit a basic unit.

[@fredstah714]

I love your videos because it gave me lots of infos on how to on my Duke 390. Question; if I just take the exhaust off and keeping the cat on, it’ll be more loud, right? And will i lose power?

[@MotoMirius]

Thanks, much appreciated. It will be louder but it will probably not sound good. One of the most difficult parts of exhaust modifications is to end up with a good sound. You should also expect to need to fit a piggyback because it will make the bike run leaner and that’s a problem because they are already borderline too lean. Skäl. David

[@Commander730]

11:00 I once struggled with the silencer removal for my Duke 250 MY2016 as well. Fortunately, my colleague found out that you have to press the rear shock absorber in order to make more clearance between the swing arm and the silencer itself, while another hold the thing from gradually loosing down :D Not sure if the new Duke is the same.

[@MotoMirius]

New Duke has more room because the cat is not inside. This one is hard to remove because the brackets collapse onto the spacer when it is installed - once it is off, this can be ground done to eliminate the problem. All good fun! Skäl David

[@fritertostepop4500]

Great video! Jut a quick question.. Whats inside the big box. I thought the cat was inside it...

[@MotoMirius]

It's a resonator/ silencer chamber. You will see this on the performance pipes and missing from the cheap link pipes - without it there can be a loss of mid range power.

[@theodoretsakoumas6416]

hey David! I love the videos you post, they're so helpful. I got a cat delete as well but am having problems with the spacer and screw. Would you be able to take a pic of where the spacer was placed and how it was fitted?

[@MotoMirius]

Thanks much appreciated. Spacer goes between the ends of clamp. If you are having issues getting it to fit then you have an alignment issue which is normal when fitting exhaust parts. Loosen off the slip on and sometimes even the cat delete and get them to fit together better. Skäl. David

[@thereallatexdragon779]

Hey man, I just bought a 2017 Duke 390, I have a slip on exhaust for it but I think you mentioned in your video you do NOT need to do any performance changes in the computer system for the EFI when you put the Leovince pipe in? I just wanted to confirm that I do not need to if I put that pipe in, dont want to damage the bike is all! Awesome video, love it! Cheers

[@MotoMirius]

Nice choice! If you have no other mods then you might get away with not adding a piggyback. As stock you can change the slip on to an Akrapovic which flows more than the stock, so the system has some leeway. If you have a slip on then I'd recommend a piggyback with this. On the upside it will give you the ability to make more changes! Skäl David

[@TheAngusGao]

be nice to do before and after sound comparison side by side, so we can hear how much louder it becomes

It would be nice but in my experience it is very hard to accurately reproduce the sound difference on video. What I can tell you is that there is no other change which makes such a big difference in sound volume. Skäl David

Yes, but dyno tests show a loss of mid range power with the presilencer delete, so the LeoVince as shown here would be the only one I suggest as the resonator chamber will mitigate that a bit.

[@danpatrickdaduya8955]

Great video! I made the decision to upgrade my 2021 svartpilen 200's exhaust system to enhance its sound. I replaced the presilencer with a midpipe and installed a Yoshimura r77 can without the baffle, while still keeping both catalytic converters. The new sound is incredible, but I've noticed a slight reduction in power after the modifications. Any suggestions on how to get back the bike's original performance? Additionally, I'm curious if using Fuelx Lite would be beneficial for both performance and engine longevity?

[@MotoMirius]

If you've done that I would recommend a piggyback fuelling device. I don't recommend removing the presilencer - this has been demonstrated in the 390 Duke to reduce mid power. Cat removal is better in my experience. The Lite seems to be a good product in terms of engine longevity - if you want performance then you really need to use a product which optimises the maps, not just avoids lean running.

[@eliasbragvin211]

great video btw. i want to do a cat delete on my ktm duke 125 2017. right now i have a arrow slip on, but wanted to get more sound. my question is; is it bad for the engine to do a cat delete?

[@MotoMirius]

It's only bad if you run both a slip on and a cat delete and don't add a fuel controller. Some argue that both are OK, but I don't like to gamble with your bike if you are asking me.

[@eliasbragvin8288]

so i shouldn't put a leovince middle pipe on on my slip on arrow?

[@MotoMirius]

The performance pipes like the Leovince you see here, and the Arkra fitted to the gen 1, which are developed on a dyno, have a resonator in the pipe. The ones you shouldn't fit are the ones that are just a pipe. But, that said it will restrict your choice of slip on. I prefer to keep the presilencer because then I can fit a small slip on. If you remove the presilencer then you end up needing a big slip on to keep the noise levels down. But there is no one single answer - it all depends what you like and what the enforcement regime is where you live. @@eliasbragvin8288

Does d cat will affect my enjine Of my Duke 390 bs4

[@MotoMirius]

It's not hard. Takes me about 20 minutes to remove this and put it back to stock. The mistake most people make is that they don't realise that the bottom mounting tabs get bent in at the factory (it's why the presilencer is hard to remove in the first place). You need to just lightly bend the lower frame tabs out a little and it all slips back together (with just one person).

[@MotoMirius]

@@kubenq Then why comment on a video about a facelift exhaust? But, it doesn't really change anything, all that happened on the facelift bikes was that they needed to add the silencer to meet new emissions standards so they broke out the parts into three instead of having them all in the same unit. But it fits in the same space, so the process is quite similar.

[@louistaylor53]

Dude im a little confused lol , Your saying a ktm 390 is what your working on but it has 125 written down the side ?

[@MotoMirius]

I see the trick works. In the car world it would be known as a sleeper - people just believe what they see. On small Dukes the panels are all the same so you can just swap them. Want to make your 125 look like a 390; just put 390 panels on. If you know what you are looking at then you'd know that KTM use different frame colour schemes for the different models, but most people aren't that hard core KTM fanatics.

@@kal1385 This is a subject I'm in the middle of doing some real life testing on - but it will take some time. Some claim that removing the presilencer does not increase performance - if you look at the systems supplied by the performance oriented suppliers such as Akrapovic, Arrow and Leovince then they retain a presilencer - it is only the suppliers of loud exhausts who remove it. I suspect it will make little difference to performance as it flows well.

@@MotoMirius and what is inside the presilencer?? Is it like a empty box.....?? Does it help to reduce sound levels??

[@MotoMirius]

@@kal1385 its a silencer not an empty box - an empty box would resonate and increase noise - its purpose is to reduce noise levels without reducing power. There are three primary ways to reduce noise - the presilencer uses the one that has the least impact on power.

Buddy that pre-silencer, has it got a tiny hole at the bottom that when idle, you can feel the air coming from it? My duke has come and I noticed it had a perfectly circular hole, but thought I'd ask:)

Yes. Most silencers will have a hole to allow moisture to drip out which helps stop the silencer from rusting out if the bike is left standing for a while.

Hi, I just took down part of my exhaust on my KTM duke 125 from 2017 to pollish it. But now when I ride it it stutters when I quickly give it gas. Do you think that the cause could be maybe bad gaskets for the exhaust? Or is that impossible. Thx!

[@MotoMirius]

Polishing will not cause that so most likely either the gasket was damaged or you have not aligned the exhaust properly. In either case you can check by running the bike and check for leaks at the joints but be careful not to touch with your bare hand and burn it.

I have a 2017 duke 390, she does have the akrapovic slip on fitted but still has the cat and pre silencer. Everyone says to remove the cat and pre silencer I have to get a power commander as the bike will run lean. Is this true? Or will the standard system adjust to it? Is there anything I need to be careful if I’m considering this

[@MotoMirius]

Thanks. Yes, it's true that you should get a piggyback if you want to be safe and avoid the risk of engine damage - the Leovince isn't too bad compared to the straight pipe alternatives, but it's at the limit of what I would run. I wouldn't recommend a Power Commander unless you know what you are buying and intentionally choose that product. I would suggest something like the FuelX if you are new to piggybacks. The standard system does adjust but it has a limit to the adjustment - which is place there to keep the stock system within emissions limits - but when you change the system, it needs to be outside of those limits.

[@MotoMirius]

Depends what you mean by a full exhaust, but if you have removed the original system and replaced it with a free flow system, then you would need to update the map - not doing so not only is likely to create issues with idle (this is often normal after fitting a new exhaust as the ECU needs to update the map), but also can result in engine damage if the change is beyond the adjustment limits allowed by the ECU.

Thanks again so much for all your videos ps I have already have a ecu piggyback :)

[@MotoMirius]

Hi, the dyno tests that Coober and some other have done suggest that mid range power is better with the cat only delete retaining the presilencer, compared to a cat and presilencer delete. You will note that the full delete pipes from proper exhaust manufacturers such as Leovince and Akrapovid (gen 1 only) have a built in silencer to compensate for this. Presilencer really doesn't make it a lot quieter, it's a fairly subtle change. But with the leovince I did have to run with the baffle in - with arrow, I might be able to get away without the baffle, but it's pretty loud.

Bagoros Performance recorded 70 mph with a stock 125. Yours should get a little faster once the engine is fully bedded in now you are past the first service - but top speed is dependant on many factors such as rider weight, rider position on the bike, wind direction, uphill/ downhill etc so I would advise not worrying about it too much - lots of high speeds seen from India but from people weighing about the same as a five year old and lying flat the tank going downhill with the wind behind them.

But if you decat, it's almost certain that you are going to want to take another step, change the slipon, remove the baffle or do some form of airbox upgrade, so it's best to just plan ahead and start thinking about which piggyback is going to suit you. If you are going to decat I'd recommend at least a basic piggyback - it's cheaper than an engine rebuild so good insurance. Skäl David

I know I'm a year late but I'm just trying to figure out if this Leo Vince mid-pipe will be compatible with my 2020 RC 390 especially since I've just put on a Competition Werkes GP exhaust on it. And isn't it bad thing to remove the cat convertor?

[@MotoMirius]

I'm not familiar with the 2020 RC, but the later RCs appear to run the same exhaust as the Duke, so physically it will fit. In terms of bad, it depends how you mean. Environmentally, perhaps but cats in themselves are somewhat controversial because they hold concentrated contaminants that there isn't really a good way of disposing.

nice video, I'm following you from Italy and in my 2018 duke 125 I have a MIVV exhaust. I would like to remove the catalyst but I am afraid that the carburetion could be ruined. If I put the decut I have to change the filter and map the switchboard or not? Thanks and Merry Christmas

The black thing is only the cat on the gen 1 bikes. On the gen 2 bikes the cat is the small pipe that sits on top of the black thing - I have another video on just replacing the cat which is often my preferred thing. It can damage the engine yes, which is why I recommend fitting at least one of the basic piggybacks to make sure this doesn't happen - if its the only change to the bike you can often get away without damaging your engine, but it's your risk to do.

Well your Dad is right. You’ve chosen a slip on that is best known for being loud. A decat will at least double the volume of any slip on. And you will for sure need a piggyback ECU. The biggest advantage of deleting the cat and presilencer is that it’s the cheapest route to a much louder bike - much cheaper than your SC. That aside it’s also a requirement if you want more power but then your SC probably won’t help with that. Skäl. David

That isn't a good question. In some places it is legal and in others it is not. In some places where it is not legal, there is little enforcement so people fit them. In some places where it is legal people don't fit them because the police use it as an excuse to stop riders for inspection (and in some places so they can ask for a cash 'fine'). So the answer is that you need to understand the local laws and customs of where you ride - it will likely be different for you compared to me.

So long as it's the service light and not an error light, that should be fine - if you get an error light then I'd recommend at least a basic piggyback. Service light could be because a year has passed or I suspect it comes on a little early to give you time to book the service.

That’s not the service light unless you have a gen 1 or RC?. I don’t really recommend the idle reset for this reason.
