Roadsitalia Exhaust
The LC8 942 cc engine is one of those V-twin units that divides opinions but never goes unnoticed. A 75° architecture, DOHC valve timing, built to withstand intensive use both on and off road: the 950 Adventure, 950 SM and 950 Supermoto Enduro share this substantial mechanical platform, each declined with different geometries and vocations. Three distinct models in spirit, united by the same soul - and the same exhaust mounting points. If you're looking for exhausts for KTM, you've come to the right place.
The silencers in this category are sport silencers designed to replace the original mufflers - right and left - in the dual lateral configuration typical of these models. This is not a full exhaust system: the headers and mid-section remain standard, while this upgrade focuses on the end cans, which have the most direct impact on aesthetics, weight and the character of the exhaust note. Fitting is carried out on the original mounting points, and a fixing kit is included. We recommend installation by a qualified mechanic, especially to ensure correct sealing and optimal positioning of both silencers.
The most immediate benefit is weight reduction: the original end cans on these models are not light, and replacing them with a dual sport silencer delivers a meaningful reduction in unsprung mass, also improving weight distribution. In terms of sound, the result is a fuller, more defined tone that enhances the low-to-mid range torque characteristic of the LC8, without altering its fundamental character. The improved exhaust flow management can contribute to a more linear throttle response, with a greater sense of readiness especially during partial throttle riding - the condition in which these models are most frequently ridden, both on road and on mixed terrain.
These silencers are handcrafted in Lombardy, in the province of Bergamo. Each pair is made to order and goes through careful quality control before dispatch. This is not an off-the-shelf product: it is built when your order arrives, to the specifications you have chosen. Sold directly, with no intermediaries, they offer consistent quality and a value-for-money ratio that is hard to match elsewhere.
As the catalytic converter version is available, you can choose at the time of ordering - via the drop-down menu on the product page - whether to go for the catalysed configuration, suitable for road use in compliance with current regulations, or for the non-catalysed version. The choice depends on your intended use and personal situation: consider it carefully before proceeding.
Every silencer comes with a standard dB killer included. Its removal is not officially supported: removing it voids the homologation and renders the end can non-compliant for road use. If you need a further reduction in noise level - for circuits with strict limits or for use in specific contexts - the No-Noise option is available, an internally welded baffle that significantly lowers the decibel output without meaningfully compromising performance. This option is also selectable from the drop-down menu.
As this is a replacement of the silencer only, the standard ECU does not normally require any remapping. The engine management system progressively adapts to the new exhaust flow conditions, without the need for additional electronic intervention. No cause for concern: this is a straightforward replacement well within the normal parameters for these engines.
Updated production lead times are always visible directly at checkout, and vary depending on the period. Once your order has been dispatched, you will automatically receive a tracking code to follow your delivery.
For any questions before purchasing - compatibility, differences between versions, available configurations - we invite you to consult the FAQ section or contact us via the Contact page or chat. We respond promptly, and whoever answers knows these exhausts inside out.
Scroll through the product list below to compare the options available for the KTM 950 Adventure, SM and Superenduro. The differences between the various silencers relate primarily to shape, material and finish - stainless steel, carbon fibre, titanium depending on the model. Visit the product page to view detailed photos, read the full technical specifications and configure your exhaust silencer by selecting the finish, catalytic converter and, where available, the No-Noise option.
