When you order this exhaust for the ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021, you receive a comprehensive kit that contains everything you need for a clean, confident installation. There’s no need to source additional hardware or make unexpected trips to the garage — it’s all in the box. Here’s exactly what comes with your order:
- 1 x MTC Exhaust 380mm Long — a compact, lightweight performance can engineered to deliver serious sound and improved gas flow
- 1 x CNC Mandrel Bent Link Pipe with Heat Shield — precision-formed for optimal flow and a precise OEM-style fit
- 2 x Connecting Clamps — heavy-duty fixings that ensure a secure, rattle-free connection

Why Choose the Max Torque Cans Exhaust for the KTM 790 R Adventurer 2019-2021
At Max Torque Cans, we don’t just sell exhausts — we’re riders ourselves, and we know what matters on the road or trail. The ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021 silencer we’ve developed uses CNC mandrel bending throughout the link pipe section. This isn’t just a manufacturing detail — it means every bend maintains a consistent internal diameter, which improves exhaust gas flow, reduces back pressure, and helps liberate the performance that KTM’s LC8c parallel-twin engine is capable of producing.
The 380mm can is the ideal length for adventure use. It’s long enough to deliver a full, authoritative exhaust note, yet compact enough not to compromise ground clearance or off-road capability. The included heat shield keeps things tidy and protects you and your luggage from excessive temperatures.
If you’re also considering options for a sibling model, take a look at our KTM 790 S ADVENTURER 2019-2021 exhaust, which has been developed with the same quality and precision for the standard 790 Adventurer.
Fitment Notes for the KTM 790 R Adventurer 2019-2021
This performance exhaust is designed as a direct slip-on replacement for the ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021. The link pipe connects directly to your existing downpipes using the supplied connecting clamps — no cutting, no welding, and no specialist tools required. The CNC mandrel bent link pipe is shaped specifically for the 790 R Adventurer’s mid-pipe exit position, ensuring a clean, flush fitment that looks as good as it sounds.
Installation is typically straightforward for any competent home mechanic. You’ll want to ensure the engine is cold before you begin, support the can correctly while you position the clamps, and torque everything down firmly before your first ride. The stainless hanger and strap are included to give your silencer the correct support points, preventing movement or unwanted stress on the connections during hard use.
As with any performance can, we recommend checking for any air leaks at the joints after your first short ride and re-tightening if necessary as the metal settles with heat cycles. Once bedded in, your ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021 will reward you with a noticeably improved soundtrack and that satisfying sense of a bike properly set up for performance.

Frequently Asked Questions — KTM 790 R Adventurer 2019-2021 Performance Can
Will this exhaust fit my exact year of KTM 790 R Adventurer?
Yes. This kit is confirmed to fit the ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021, covering all model years from 2019 through to 2021. If you’re unsure about your specific build date or have a modified bike, feel free to contact us before ordering and we’ll confirm compatibility for you.
Do I need a remap after fitting this exhaust?
As a slip-on replacement for the ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021, this can retains the existing downpipes and therefore has a relatively modest effect on fuelling. Most riders run this silencer without an immediate remap and notice no adverse issues. However, for the best possible performance and running quality, a fuel tune is always recommended when fitting any aftermarket performance exhaust. We suggest speaking with your preferred KTM dealer or a dyno tuner for tailored advice.
Is this exhaust road legal?
This is a performance aftermarket can intended for off-road or track use unless otherwise stated. Please check your local road traffic regulations and MOT requirements before fitting to a road-registered machine. If you need further guidance, don’t hesitate to get in touch with the Max Torque Cans team.
What material is the exhaust made from?
The link pipe, hanger, and strap components are all stainless steel, making them highly resistant to corrosion — essential for a bike like the ktm 790 r adventurer 2019-2021 that’s likely to see rain, mud, and harsh conditions on a regular basis. The 380mm MTC can itself is built to the same high standard you’d expect from a dedicated motorcycle exhaust specialist.
