Mike, you single-handedly making RS660 community so much better! Love it that almost anything about this bike can be found on your channel, hopefully you will not abandon 660 videos after purchasing RSV4
hey man ! big thanks for making this video. I just finished installing my SC project exhaust with the help of your video. our bikes look identical same color even. just finished putting things back together. tomorrow i'm swapping the air filter with the help of one of your other videos. very helpful, lets me do this with confidence while not actually being a mechanic. RS660 sounds amazing now. cheers from Vancouver BC
Based on the video: Tools Needed: - Ratchet - 6mm hex bit (foot peg removal, if needed) - 4mm hex for lower faring, front panel, radiator - T25 torx bit - 2.5mm hex bit - 8mm or 5/16 wrench - 10mm ratchet w/socket ext. - 13mm ratchet w/ext - 17mm wrench for o2 sensors - 10mm ratchet for header nuts Does it look like im missing anything? 😅 I'm installing the mivv delta, frame sliders, mirrors, gabro stack, and air filter this weekend. Im trying to make sure i got all of my loose ends.
Yo this is exactly what I was looking for! Do you have any tips now that you’ve done the install? Should I do exhaust first then air box stuff? Also going to be putting on evotech radiator guard
I did it in this order: - removal of all necessary fairings - removal of exhaust - removal of headers - install of new headers - install of new exhaust - install all fairings - unscrew gas tank (I had a second person so I didn't need to remove the whole thing) - install stacks and air filter - ran and installed upmap (took about 30 minutes to run the process) Some pointers - installing the new headers would be much easier with a second set of hands. You also need a block or stand for when you remove the original exhaust. I spent more time installing the four header nuts than any other part since I was doing it solo. I ordered the new header nuts from A1 (as he suggested in the video) and I'm glad I did. Doing the install solo, and being that it was my first time working on a bike, took about 8 hours in total. Would have taken 5 with a second set of hands...those header bolts are hard to get to and hard to get on flush. Last pointer, don't over-twork the nuts, trust the tools to do their job.
Thanks a lot Mike, This video helped me so much for install my sc project CRT in my RS, I'm spanish but with the video who shows all was simple. I had an acid gold and loks amacig!!💪💪
Thank you for saying you can reinstall the heat shields to fill the belly gap! You're the first installer to specify that! I don't like the look of the empty space changing exhausts leaves! So basically......install your RIZOMA mirrors, frame sliders, exhaust and anything else that requires fairing removal at the same time!! Lol
You can definitely reinstall the heat shields and you can also paint them. Yes, removing these fairings is a tedious process so I would definitely choose to install frame sliders, exhaust and Rizoma mirrors at the same install.
Acabo de tener my Aprilia RS660 Acid Gold 2023, muy buen video aunque a mi personalmente me encanta su muffler original, es una de las cosas que más me gusto de ella ✌️, saludos 😎
@@ALFAVITAGA Es cierto, perdona te escriba en español pero me es mas fácil, quería preguntarte que piensas del aceite para usar en mi Aprilia, he ordenado Castrol 10w 50 en Amazon y su filter original, según el Manual recomiendan Castrol Oil , pero veo muchas personas usan Motul, que piensas de eso, ya me suscribí a tu Canal , no se si usas Instagram para seguirte también, muchas gracias por contestar ✌️
Both Motul and Castrol are great options. Motul runs a bit more expensive than Castrol. I’m an advocate of frequent oil changes. Usually never over 3000km. For that reason I choose Castrol that is recommended by Aprilia and works great, plus its cheaper. My instagram link is on my main TH-cam page.
Great video Mike, much appreciated! Quick question: in the EU Version of the SC Project, you need to drill a hole through the carbon end of the exhaust to remove the screw that holds the baffle tight, did you have to do the same or how did you removed it? Greetings from Germany
Hi Paul. Thats the first time I’m hearing this. I did not have to drill a hole to remove the screw that holds baffle. I don’t think there is an EU version of the SC Project. I think what you are referring to is the SC Project that retains the catalytic converter. If thats what you mean, thats not an EU version. Its just the non race SC Project exhaust. The one I’m installing on this video is a full system race exhaust with no catalytic converter.
@@ALFAVITAGA Thanks for the quick answer bro. You are absolutely right. I meant the exhaust system with the catalytic converter so its matching the european emission standards. That's why I named it "the EU Version". Then I'd like to rephrase my question. How did you remove the baffle of the race exhaust system? Maybe with some luck I can ask our local dealer if he could sell me the full exhaust system with the catalytic converter but with the (race exhaust trim ?) So I can uninstall it, if hitting the race track and keep it in, when im on the streets ;)
@@elgoblino4379 Thank you for mentioning this as now I know that the CAT version has a muffler that the baffle is “locked”. SC Project won’t sell the CAT exhaust with the muffler from the race version. For that reason I find it hard for your dealer to be able to supply you with that combo. But doesn’t hurt to ask. Worst case scenario you buy a second SC1-R muffler from the race version. But that will cost you more.
Hi Mike, I have a question about the evotech crash bobbins, did you use the lift to keep in position the engine when you removed the original bolts to put the Evotech supports or it's not necessary?
The frame sliders are the only thing I didn’t install myself, as I had the dealer install them for me at the time of the bike delivery. But I do know that the engine does not need to be lifted for the sliders to be installed.
FAIR WARNING: the CRT is reeeeeeally f’n loud. Like earplugs-are-not-optional l o u d . I have been rocking one for about a month/1k miles, and I haven’t received a ticket, or been yelled at by pedestrians, etc…. BUT, I no longer take my bike out at unreasonable hours because it would DEFINITELY wake anyone within a 150ft radius of my bike, and I live in a tight-spaced neighborhood of families. So know what you’re getting into; the CRT turns the Rs660 into a unique and ferocious BEAST. Best sounding twin in the world with this set-up. (The Sprint air filter is NOT optional. Get it. ) … (and since you are under the tank for the air filter anyways, you might as well put the IMU damper on to counter false ‘Alerts’.. hell, just get the gabro velocity stacks too while the tank is off. 🤷♂️ gets you the free gabro upmap.) Bonus note: cars around you DEFINITELY hear you before they see you, which IS a safety feature I’ve noticed. Never believed ‘loud pipes save lives’, but they just might in certain circumstances.

Thank you man! For fender delete I chose the JL Designs. Its the one on the end of the video with the CRT. The bike with the SC1-R I don’t remember what brand his fender delete is.
Is it possible to remove the heat shields _without_ taking the whole exhaust out? Maybe just that center bolt and dropping the exhaust down a couple inches? I tried to just remove the heat shields but it seems the rear sets are in the way, and I'd rather not have to remove those just to get at the heat shields
I’m guessing you want to remove the heat shields to paint them? I can’t imagine another reason, unless it needs to be replaced. I don’t recommend removing the center bolt. The stock exhaust is very heavy and is only held by the center bolt. If you remove it all the weight will be transferred to the header studs and nuts. You don’t need to remove the exhaust to remove the heat shield. That would be a huge job for just a heat shield. All you need to do is wiggle the rear set a bit, to make space for the heat shield to be removed. To do that you will need to remove the swingarm axle nut on the left side of the bike and push the axle in, just enough before it passes through the swingarm. If it passes through the swingarm you are screwed. You will open a much bigger job. Once you push the axle in, you will need to remove the lower bolt of the right rearset. After that you just pull the right rearset out to give space for the heat shield. You can check out my rearset installation video for guidance. th-cam.com/video/jka0d-uRDNQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=oqCTKbzZ0dJDpn5H
Thanks for the sub! I’ll upload these days a an air filter installation video and I think I have some revs in that. I own the bike with the CRT and thats the only one I can make rev clips with, as the bike with the SC1-R used to be my buddy’s and he sold it.
Thank you. The frame sliders I’m using are by Evotech Performance. Best frame sliders for the RS660 and I have seen them on a different RS660 on a low side protecting the entire side of the bike with success. They are technically plug and play. You only need to remove the fairings to install them and no need for any type of drilling. Very clean install.
@@jasonjohannes8285 Evotech makes frame sliders specifically for the Tuono 660. The arm length is different as the Tuono doesn’t have the side fairings the RS660 has. If you own a Tuono, order specific to your model.
Correct. This is the “Trofeo” exhaust. And yes, you would need to tune the ECU. I know guys that went over 1000 miles without tuning the ECU with no issues. But for the long run it is best to tune it as these engines run very lean as they are.
I have really enjoyed your channel and thank you for sharing all contents on RS660, it is really helpful as a new Aprilia family member. Was just wondering, what will be the better timing to change my stock exhaust to aftermarket one , most likely I am looking for SC CRT. Any thought ? after half year of riding or a few thousands km ridden ? I recently just got my new RS660
Súper el video, una pregunta bro ? Cuando voy a ordenar me da 2 opciones , el de titanio y el de stainless steel , en mi caso quiero dejar los apoyos para pasajero
I have the titanium and the titanium its not supposed to fit the pegs. But I made a video how to make the titanium fit the foot pegs. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/LPPatheOJOE/w-d-xo.html Its easier to fit it if you get the CRT. But if you get the SC1-R you need to make a bracket. I explain this in the video.
@@ianjoe9909 Of course! I took my wife for rides too with the CRT and she had no issues being loud. Normally I would suggest the SC1-R if the plan is to have a passenger, only to make it smoother for the passenger. But its up to you. Everything will work with a little modification or no modification. Either titanium or stainless steel.
πολυ ωραιο βιντεο και οι 2 μηχανες ακουγονται τελεια! Ενδιαφερομαι να αγορασω το RS 660 . Θα το συνιστουσες? Εχεις αντιμετωπησει καποιο προβλημα μεχρι στιγμης?
Είναι περίπλοκη η απάντηση αλλά με λίγα λόγια ναι θα το συνιστούσα, αρκεί να μην είναι από τα πρώτα μοντέλα που κυκλοφόρησαν. Τα πρώτα μοντέλα έβγαλαν αρκετά προβλήματα και ανακλήσεις. Το δικό μου δεν είναι από τα πρώτα, κατασκευάστηκε Ιούνιο του 2021 και ως ώρας είμαι στα 3000Km χωρίς προβλήματα και χωρίς ανακλήσεις. Το μόνο πρόβλημα που μου έβγαλε στα 1000Km ήταν το διάκενο της μίας βαλβίδας εξαγωγής με αποτέλεσμα να μην μου κρατάει ρελαντί. Ρύθμισα τα διάκενα και κανένα πρόβλημα ως ώρας. Γενικά τα Aprilia είναι γνωστά για τα διάκενα βαλβίδων. Δες RSV4 για παράδειγμα. Αλλά γενικά σαν μηχανάκι είναι απίστευτα διασκεδαστικό.
@@ALFAVITAGA καινούριο θα το αγοράσω οπότε θα είναι ή του 22 , ή του 23 αναλόγως το πότε θα γίνει η αγορά . Ευελπιστώ η Aprilia να έχει κάνει μια προσπάθεια να διορθώσει ότι θεματάκια είχε . Ευχαριστώ για την απάντηση , κάνω sub και περιμένω κι'αλλα βιντεάκια με το εργαλείο ! Ride safe 👊🏼✊🏼💨
Microfiber cloth and isopropyl alcohol. You need to wipe it down especially if its titanium, so it won’t leave marks when it heats up. And during installation the headers do get greasy from touching them.
Short answer yes and no. It technically voids warranty, but its more complicated. First of all in the USA we have the Magnuson-Moss Act. Which means Aprilia would have to prove that the problem on your bike was caused by the exhaust, in order for them to void your warranty. But the actual exhaust is not really the problem. Its the mapping that void the warranty. But if you have a warranty claim, the only way for Aprilia to know you have a map tune, is if they request a mapping history. But they almost never request that.
Great video but Jesus christ man I can't hear the full potential of either of the exhaust!? Your friend seams scared of it and you weren't much better yourself.. Get on the pipe boys and let's hear them properly 😂
Thanks for watching! But we couldn’t go over 4k for multiple reasons. It was 11:30pm on a 7 feet tall garage. Neighbors were sleeping and chips of drywall were falling off the ceiling. These exhaust are LOUD and the video doesn’t really represent the loudness. Not to mention that the exhaust was just installed. You gotta test everything works properly and air/fuel ratio is correct with mapping before you rip it. I have other videos on my channel with flybys, on board and standstill revs.

Το μόνο πρόβλημα που μου έβγαλε στα 1000Km ήταν το διάκενο της μίας βαλβίδας εξαγωγής με αποτέλεσμα να μην μου κρατάει ρελαντί. Ρύθμισα τα διάκενα και κανένα πρόβλημα ως ώρας. Γενικά τα Aprilia είναι γνωστά για τα διάκενα βαλβίδων. Δες RSV4 για παράδειγμα. Αλλά γενικά σαν μηχανάκι είναι απίστευτα διασκεδαστικό.
@@ALFAVITAGA καινούριο θα το αγοράσω οπότε θα είναι ή του 22 , ή του 23 αναλόγως το πότε θα γίνει η αγορά . Ευελπιστώ η Aprilia να έχει κάνει μια προσπάθεια να διορθώσει ότι θεματάκια είχε . Ευχαριστώ για την απάντηση , κάνω sub και περιμένω κι'αλλα βιντεάκια με το εργαλείο ! Ride safe 👊🏼✊🏼💨
@@BONTHEBLOCKΕυχαριστω για το sub. Έρχονται κι’άλλα βιντεάκια. Με 2022 και μετά θα είσαι ασφαλής. 💪
What did you use to wipe down your exhaust?
Microfiber cloth and isopropyl alcohol. You need to wipe it down especially if its titanium, so it won’t leave marks when it heats up. And during installation the headers do get greasy from touching them.
Bro after that did you update ecu? Or just change exhaust and done?
In rode it for roughly 100 miles just to make sure everything runs fine and then I installed an Upmap with Gabro’s map.
Does the SC exhaust require flash or does it just adjust itself?
It doesn’t adjust itself. You need an UpMap, race ECU or power comander. I went with Upmap Gabros map. I think its the best choice.
@@ALFAVITAGA Thank you. I didn't see a power commander for rs660
Did this void your warranty?
Short answer yes and no. It technically voids warranty, but its more complicated. First of all in the USA we have the Magnuson-Moss Act. Which means Aprilia would have to prove that the problem on your bike was caused by the exhaust, in order for them to void your warranty. But the actual exhaust is not really the problem. Its the mapping that void the warranty. But if you have a warranty claim, the only way for Aprilia to know you have a map tune, is if they request a mapping history. But they almost never request that.
Did you replace the ECU for this?
I installed an Upmap T800 with Gabro’s map.
This is super helpful. What size were those brass nuts?

'Give it some throttle' .... barely breaths on it
It was 11:30pm in a 7 feet tall garage. No need to wake up the neighbors.
That dude is scared to rev the bike past 2k WTF!
He’s not. It was 11 at night and that exhaust shook the entire building.
Wow all this for an exhaust wow i think ima stay w japanese for now until i can afford to pay someone 😆
This exhaust installation is fairly easy compared to other bikes. Its the multiple fairing bolts and the tight radiator space that makes it tedious.

Great video but Jesus christ man I can't hear the full potential of either of the exhaust!? Your friend seams scared of it and you weren't much better yourself.. Get on the pipe boys and let's hear them properly 😂
Thanks for watching! But we couldn’t go over 4k for multiple reasons. It was 11:30pm on a 7 feet tall garage. Neighbors were sleeping and chips of drywall were falling off the ceiling. These exhaust are LOUD and the video doesn’t really represent the loudness. Not to mention that the exhaust was just installed. You gotta test everything works properly and air/fuel ratio is correct with mapping before you rip it. I have other videos on my channel with flybys, on board and standstill revs.
Buddy was scared to rev his own bike. Shame
Where did you get your tank slider from?
