Look what arrived in the mail today... - Yamaha FZ6R Forums - International FZ6R / XJ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

My XJ6S comes with a factory center stand, so the TBR full exhaust was a no-go. All other exhaust I investigated didn't take into account the center stand, only the Leo Vince. An I think it will look sweet!

Cant wait to fit it on the bike!

The only thing I'm missing is a torque meter, wonder if I could rent one?

Soooo how much!? Pics when it's installed.

Also what fuel management did you go with?

ajiribarren · 08-25-2010, 10:52 PM

Around 900 USD shipped to Australia. A local dealer quoted me 1970 AUD (around 1800 USD) without installation!

As for fuel management, none for the moment. Enough farkles for the bike at the moment

. Also got in the mail the Vario Touring Screen for the XJ6S, so I got enough to be entertained for a while hehe.

Hey mate, I sent an email to andrew@sportbiketrackgear.com. All the deal was done by mail. Very nice guys, and everything went on smoothly!

What bike you got? The FZ6R or the XJ6?

I believe so! Our bikes are essentially the same! I like the underbody design of the Leo. Nobody in this forum has taken the plunge into the Leo, I'll try to share my experience with you guys.

**FZRblack** · 08-26-2010, 09:33 AM

I was looking at their site and I am very interested....so which brings me to my next point.

ajiribarren · 09-01-2010, 02:34 AM

Sorry guys for the delay, I was busy at uni. Today I had a free afternoon so I tried to document the installation of the Leo Vince.|

I did it by myself in about 4 hours.

Pics before starting:

The package contents:

Original Exhaust Uninstalled:

Lambda Probe:

Ready to install the new exhaust:

Here is were it took me the most part of the 4 hours install. Trying to connect the headers to the collectors!

It was a royal pain in the ass!! Very difficult to align! I even had to use some grease, and a LOT of patience. I was going to give up, but finally I managed to make it work!

Then was the installation of the muffler, connecting the hangers to the body, and reinstalling the lambda probe.

Here she is, just wating for me to clean the headers and muffler before firing her up for the first time!

(Btw, her name is Candy

)

Headers and muffler cleaned, bodywork installed and baffle removed. Let's fire her up!

Sound wise, I love it!! Deeper and throatier sound than stock, and a very stealth looking exhaust. I shoot a small video, but it doesn't make justice to how beautiful it sounds! I didn't revved her too much, my neighbors were starting to look out the windows, so hopefully I'll might be able to make a better video some other day.

Leo Vince exhaust

Is exactly what I wanted, and for me it was the only option because of the center stand. In the end, very happy!
