OK RSV, my line of enquiry has flopped as Demon Tweeks are only LV race system dealers via Apico. Apparently LV have their business split in to road, race, off road and scooter sections.
I'll give the Darlington MF route a try, as the �375 inc p&p price is right on my budget. Are they a stock item there or did you need to order?
Thanks for the details.:023:

Timpo.

Hi Timpo, Had to order them in but came in 2 days. Like you say LV are split, my friend does mx gear but pulled a few strings to be able to get the sbk range, by the way the main UK importers only hold 2 sets of these at any one time

Sound Barrier
 
Hi!
The "bangs" in the exhaust system occurs with the original system as well with the L&V-system. But with L&V it is "The Big Bang"! The exhaust bangs are caused by the AIS so I plugged the system in the little rubber hose between the chromed pipe and the reed valve and voil�, no "bangs", i.e. I have passed the Sound Barrier! But I just love the sound of my L&V-system (ok, I reckon my neighbors don�t!) I have also removed the snorkel and is waiting for a KN-filter!

Glade to see it works on the XTZ as well.

Just fitted my pair of LeoVincis yesterday.

Overall I'm happy with them. They seem to be well made, were well packaged and came with all the parts needed. They were very easy to fit with no adjustments needed. My only surprise was that they did not give as much of a weight saving as I would have expected. The total weight of the LeoVinces with all pipes and brackets, nuts and bolts was 6.3 kilos, the OE exhaust was 7.1 kilos, giving a saving of only .8 of a kilo.

I have the db killers in and I wouldn't want them any louder. The main reason why I wanted them was for the looks as I don't like the OE exhaust so I'm happy.

Looks and sounds great, and weighs much less(how much, I'll you know as soon as I put the original system on a scale), also bangs when you shut the throttle down, like with the original system, only louder. Look at the piccies. Greetz, Hans.

P.s.: going away for a couple of days, to the Ardennes or Vogezen, let y'all know how it rides, in performance and fuel consumption and such. And if the cops still like me....!





I love these, a friend has a set on his aprilia, and after looking at OTR�s web site, they are what I would like too.
Cheaper than the rest, looks very nice and why not, but, if I were to fit them on my T�n�r� would I still be able to fit my MetalMule pannier frames and cases?

Do they, like the bikes OE pipes, fit under the side or do they protrude?

Cheers�

Having fitted a set last night I can say that they are very slim on the bike. I need to check my pannier rails still fit, but I think they will. Can't answer for the MM stuff though, sorry.

Thanks anyway tripletom�

�looks like a ride to the LV UK HQ next spring to have a nose; if at all possible, can you let us all know how it all goes with the frames etc?

Cheers...
