Websites for good price on leo vince
wondering if you guys knew of any good websites for cheap prices on leo vince high mount slip ons? I currently have the Jardine round high mount (black) and I'm looking for a change. trying to get under $600 if possible for aluminum. Also - I can not find it in CF. Doe they still make it for the SH in CF?
Thanks. |
anyone?

Thanks 996 rider. I'll let you know how the look/sound compared to the jardine cans as soon as i get them mounted up. |
Pipecity was the lowest I saw new at 606 I believe. Starcycle was 618 or 619. Yeah too bad I just saw that nice used aluminum set on ebay go for under 400. Ebay is the place if you get lucky. I got my carbon high mount Leo's on there and they were perfect like brand new for around 500.

Thanks bro...I saw that set that just sold on ebay and liked the looked and was wondering how the sound was...let me know what you think...Later

They sound great. Not Harley loud like D&D's (but what else is?) but still fairly loud. Nice quality and I was able to bend the hangers a little and pull them in nice and close to the tail-not a huge fan of that "wheelbarrow" look.

hey captain, you got pics of your leos? i want to mod the hangers to bring the pipes in closer to the tail section if possible. I'd like ot see what you did. I created a hanger to work with my subframe a few years ago on another VTR. it looked awesome and I'm trying to recreate that look but not sure I'll have to attach to the subframe this time. Thanks. |

I'll keep you posted. Thanks for the link greg. Just bought them. $567 was the best price i could find anywhere and wanted to get them asap so i could get them on the bike in time to enjoy them befor winter. I bet I could have found some on ebay if I'd looked harder and been more patient.
|
sure. not sure what I'll do yet about keeping them but befor I put them up for sale I'll give you a shout. please PM me to remind me. later greg.
BTW - how hot to you think these cans get (leo vince)? I want them as close to teh tail section as possible but afraid they might melt the tail if they are too close. I had some micron CF cans almost touching the tail and they were fine but thecf doesn't get too hot. |
Too late now I know but.....
I ordered a set of leoVince CF for my VTEC VFR and found the best price for that bike at morepoweracing.com. They don't show CF for the superhawk but do have alum in both hi and low mounts. You have to email for a 5% off coupon which will bring the hi mounts down to $570 plus shipping. AFAIK, they don't stock but get them in 2 days from the importer in Cali. http://tinyurl.com/yx54ou Note: these are for the evo II line which includes a spud, aka db killer, like staintunes use and are the more expensive of the two lines they sell. I don't know if they make a VTR model in the cheaper line. |

Sure, give me a day or so and I'll take a couple pics and email them to you. I still have to take a couple minutes to figure out how to post pics on here. I basically just gave the stock hangers a slight inward bend and everything went with and still clears the swingarm fine. I did have to tuck the hangers under/mount them to the inside of the tail plastic. The cans are RIGHT next to my BRAND NEW tail and they don't do anything to the paint. (I'd cry if they did). If I put an undertail on, which I eventually will, I could probably get them together like a ducati. I actually had them pretty close but liked them better spaced apart a little. By the way took a quick look at your site. Congrats on the contest. Been lifting for a long time and always wanted to do one. Always got a kick out of all the personal trainers out there who just don't look the part...

Hey Drew, found two older pics I emailed you.
|
Yeah no problem, I'd be happy to take some close ups and answer any questions you have. Unlike usual I'll probably actually have some time this weekend to work on this stuff.

Greg,
Speaking of pictures, I would like to add a small photo avatar to my "handle". When I try to upload...I am way oversize. Would you be willing to downsize a photo for me, or is the explanation fairly simple ? |

Greg,
Personal e-mail sent to your litre bike web site address due to upload restrictions on this site. Thanks |
Done. Hope you like it. I've added it to your profile as well. I'm sending it back to you via email.
|
My avatar looks perfect !
Thanks Greg. |
Big Cans
Boy, the leo Vance cans look big on the pics. Maybe it is just becuase I am used to seeing the Jardine's. Opinions guys?
|
Oh yeah, can you mount the passenger pegs with the Leo Vance high mounts?
