Storm Oval Exhausts Made of Stainless Steel
Storm OVAL exhaust systems incorporate the manufacturing know-how of MIVV, the famous Italian sports exhaust maker. They deliver the much-loved sporty sound, combined with the sturdiness and durability offered by an exterior made of stainless steel.
The highly engineered silencers have also been homologated for numerous older motorcycle models. With the riveted dB absorber, they have EC type approval. Made by Mivv Italy.
For further information about legal requirements and exhaust maintenance, see "Documents".
Please note:
Slip-on system: Silencer is supplied with a manifold adapter tube
Bolt-on system: Silencer is bolted to the original manifold flange (no adapter tube required)
Full system: Complete exhaust system comprising manifold and rear silencer
The original catalytic converter is retained on the motorcycles marked with (*). For all other motorcycles, the original cat is discarded.
STORM by Mivv - MotoGP technology for the road
The Italian motorcycle exhaust manufacturer MIVV is one of the leading European manufacturers in the industry. MIVV operates as the OEM for Yamaha, Ducati and Moto Guzzi, among others, but also produces aftermarket exhaust systems for many current motorbike models. The exceptional performance of the MIVV systems is based directly on lessons learnt from the world of motor sport: MIVV has been cooperating with Repsol Honda in the MotoGP for years now. The exceptional design and, not least, the unmistakable goose bump-inducing sound are genuinely Italian. In recent years, this has played a huge part in enhancing the popularity of the leading brand.
Modern vehicle accessories of different types now frequently carry an "E" approval mark valid throughout Europe. This "E" mark, which is made up of a combination of letters and numbers, is clearly displayed on the product and shows the application tested, the country in which testing was carried out and, where appropriate, the vehicle type to which approval applies. EC type approvals for exhaust systems, for example, are always issued for a specific vehicle type, whereas in the case of lighting, they apply to an entire group of vehicles, e.g. motorcycles.
This certification mark is the sole proof of legality stipulated by law, i.e. no written report or entry in the vehicle documents by a TÜV (German Technical Inspection Association) test centre is required. However, when it comes to installing accessories, the relevant guidelines of the Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StvZO) must always be observed.
At a roadside check or a TÜV vehicle inspection, the registered keeper is only required to show the "E" mark. It is then up to the official in charge whether to check the mark with the Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA) in Flensburg (or equivalent type approval authority in other countries), which is able to decode all certification marks.
Stainless steel is a collective term for rustproof steel. It is much more resistant to corrosion than non-alloyed steels. Stainless steel does not deteriorate, and is hygienic, UV-resistant, non-corroding, fracture-proof, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. It does not weather and can be recycled in its entirety, even after many years. Technically, the term "stainless steel" refers to corrosion-resistant steel alloys with a wide variety of compositions but always containing a high percentage of chromium (usually a minimum of 10.5%)
.
MAINTENANCE:
Stainless steel should be cleaned regularly like all other materials, especially after exposure to salty air (near the coast), and also at regular intervals.
Water can easily collect in corners, edges and screw connections, resulting in corrosion. So careful cleaning is important, and if necessary screws should be undone in order to clean the parts thoroughly.
Do not leave rusty steel parts against stainless steel to avoid the rust "contamination".
