LeoVince Slip On Exhaust

Post by dderrig »

Just installed it, looks nice sounds similar to stock exhaust with baffle in, have not tried it yet with baffle out.

My mechanic wants me to buy one of this LeoVince exhaust
for an affordable price compare to many other brands.... are they really good ?

Do they really make more noise ?

My R is too silent for me..I can deal with it but when I pass next to a car I can feel that way too many drivers don't notice anything.


Not that I am planning to trade my R for an Harley-Davidson
But ultimately what I would like
is the dog on the rear seat
to give me a highly respectful Military Salute !
While I am passing by... :mrgreen:

That is made by Axio, a great and good looking tail bag IMHO.

Like I said with baffle in very similar to stock, will try later without baffle to see if it gets a more noticable tone for those who want the sportier sound.

I had two Leo Vince SBK carbon exhaust on my Suzuki SV1000s and they have proven of very high quality and finish over tousands of miles. They also sound awesome with baffle removed. I am looking to fit a Leo Vince Factory EVOII slip-on to my new R1200r and was wondering if the left side case still fits with your new pipe and if the remaining clearance is acceptable.

Thanks

Marc, I can't answer that because I don't have a system case but the exhaust is smaller and really sits in about the same position so I don't think it would be a problem.

Thanks Don !

These LeoVince are way cheaper than Abramopopovitch...or don't remember the name.. but what the advantage to get a pricey one ? I am always skeptical when my mechanic try to sell me accessories.

A Leovince is around $380 I think and Abrapopovitch is around $850 if I remember well.

There is also "Two Brothers" exhaust that are very noisy as someone told me...

The one you see in my picture above is SBK FACTORY EVOII TITANIUM W/ CARBON END CAP which goes for $600 still much cheaper than the Akrapovic or some others.

I have the Leo Vince and the system case fits fine. There is no EXTRA clearance but it fits OK. The Leo Vince looks and sounds much better than stock. Not much louder but sounds deeper. I haven't tried it with the baffle removed yet. A good investment.
