How are these guys not bigger? This was a crazy good watch... came across them on a Husq Forum. I've got a KTM RC 390 w/ the same powerplant as their 401 build it's a fun bike for sure.

Is the exhaust available for purchase? Was thinking it would add clearance to a scramble version of svartpilen 😊 more so the rerouted header and pipe bit, would prefer a quieter pipe
I own a 701 and this give me some great ideas! Keep em coming!

Absolutely wicked build! Got one of these myself and am tempted to start copying some mods, but have to finish off a CB350 build first! Quick Q - did you have to remap the ECU to suit the DNA filter & ne exhaust?
@PurposeBuiltMoto
3 жыл бұрын
The Husky ECU has a reset mode that needs to be completed. Other than that you can get a performcane ECU for it.
After the exhaust and air filter swap out, did you have to remap/flash the ECU or install a power commander?

No ECU with the stage 2 filter?
@PurposeBuiltMoto
3 жыл бұрын
We spoke with DNA filters, they said if you really want a bog boost in power you can use one, but the stage 2 just and an exhaust can be used on its own.
I’ve also just ordered the 2020 version, as I wanted the adjustable forks. I’m interested in making some mods and am enquiring if you sell the exhaust and cat delete pipe? Also the air filter? I clicked the link and nothing happened. What gains in power and torque do you think the air filter alone provides? Any Dyno tests before and after? I’d appreciate any advice, from anyone! Thanks, stay upright and stay safe!
