F800GS Stock Exhaust vs F800GS Leo Vince Evo II

[sijohnston]

I wasn't convinced by these other cans, they looked a little 'jesse' for the bike
14 months ago I had a friend cut the cat out of the headers and stripped all the muck out of the stock can (which I think suits the bike better than the small cans) and put in a straight through perforated stainless steel pipe. You can't even see the welds on the can it's so good. Happy to compare the sounds any time

really happy with it,nicely made,compact,huge weight saving,transformed the bike for me,
nice exhaust note and just about right with db killer in,my mate reckons it sounds like a doodlebug when i give it some

I like the way you've painted your tyre make on. Wicked exhaust without baffle but just too loud me thinks for local neighbours.

So don't look at Paddy's latest pics then. I think he's invested in Tippex!

Much in the vain of the lockable oil cap

Mate, you got a link on where you got this pipe for £210? I just looked on Ebay and couldn't find it.

Cheers

It seems the company has seen the error of their ways and increased the price of their carbon can to £279 although you can still get the alluminum one for £210 here
Luckily i got mine before the price hike

Thanks for the link. Just sent them an email, although I doubt they will give me the same price again. Worth a try, though!
