FAQs
Will this exhaust fit my 2017 KTM Duke 390?
No, this specific Scorpion Serket Taper 3/4 System is designed for KTM Duke 390 models from 2013 to 2016 only. Please check for other compatible models if you have a different year.
Is the exhaust street legal?
The exhaust is E-Mark certified with the baffle fitted, making it compliant with European regulations for street use. However, with the baffle removed, it produces a significantly louder sound and may not be legal for street use in all regions. Always check local regulations.
How difficult is the installation?
Installation typically involves removing the stock exhaust system and fitting the new 3/4 system. While it can be done by a confident DIYer, professional installation by a mechanic is recommended to ensure proper fitment and safety.
What is the difference between the Serket Taper and other Scorpion exhaust lines?
The Serket Taper is part of Scorpion's modern range, featuring state-of-the-art design concepts, aerospace-grade materials, and a unique polymer composite outlet. It aims to fuse cutting-edge aesthetics with performance and precision.
Does the exhaust come with a catalytic converter?
As a 3/4 system, this exhaust replaces the original headers and catalytic converter. Please refer to the product details or contact customer support for specific information regarding emissions control components included in this system.
What maintenance is required for the stainless steel finish?
Regular cleaning with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap is recommended. For tougher stains or to restore shine, a dedicated stainless steel cleaner can be used. Avoid abrasive materials.
Troubleshooting
