FAQs

Will this pipe fit my 2017 KTM model?

No, this specific DEP Armoured Front Pipe is designed for KTM models from 2011-2016 and Husqvarna models from 2014-2016. Please check DEP's product catalog for pipes compatible with other model years.

Does this front pipe come with gaskets?

Exhaust gaskets are typically sold separately. It is highly recommended to use new gaskets when installing the front pipe for a proper seal.

How does the 'Armoured' feature differ from standard pipes?

The 'Armoured' designation signifies a more robust construction, making the pipe more resilient to impacts and crash damage compared to standard or less reinforced designs.

Is the sporty sound of this pipe excessively loud?

The pipe is designed for a sporty and aggressive sound. While DEP exhausts are known for their distinct note, loudness can be subjective and depend on riding conditions. It is recommended to check local regulations regarding exhaust noise levels.

Can I use this with my stock silencer?

This front pipe is designed to replace the stock front pipe and integrate with either the stock silencer or other compatible aftermarket silencers. Fitment with aftermarket silencers may vary.

What is the material of the front pipe?

DEP exhausts are typically made from high-quality materials like stainless steel or aluminum, depending on the specific application. The product description does not specify the exact material for this particular pipe, but high-grade metals are standard.

Troubleshooting

Exhaust leak at cylinder head connection

Ensure the gasket is new and correctly seated. Tighten the mounting bolts evenly to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.

Reduced performance after installation

Verify that the pipe is correctly installed and that there are no kinks or blockages. Ensure the silencer connection is sealed properly. Check for any air leaks.

Unusual rattling noise

Check that all mounting hardware is securely tightened and that the pipe is not contacting any other part of the motorcycle chassis.
