Default i have a hilevel leo vince pipe but it blocks my right indi

HELLO not posted here in ages

ok so i have a high level exhaust fitted and a hamicad tail tidy but the thing is the exhaust is quite long so it rises up infront of the right indicator

its either a low level link pipe if i can find one, original pipe back on or snowshovel back on to move the indy where it can be seen


can any one with a hilevel pipe show me a picture so i can compare

thanks

I tried to order a LeoVince today - but they are backordered in the states. Their website though shows the trouble you're having.

Look closely - there is no right indicator.

Look here:

It would probably be cheaper to buy new indicators than to try to find a new midpipe.

If its a low level link pipe you are after we could swap ( my low level for your high level + some cash in your direction )



Pm me if your are interested.........

I dont have a high level pipe but i have used the motrax micro fairing indicators & stuck them to the undertray up inside the curvy protruding bits of the hamicad, they look good & are well out of the way, if you go this route mount them with the thinner end to the back as thats the brightest. May solve youre problem.

Some undertrays will put the indicators in a different place... Or you could shorten the can. i've not seen teh inside of a Leo Vince but almost all race cans are a simple baffle surrounded by packing, and theferore easy to modify.

I have a disasembled Leo Vince can. You might have a problem puting it back together if you take it apart though.

Around the perforated tube there is a corse fiberglass material with a wraping mateiral around it stapled together. There are lots of very sharp bits there, i guess this is the fiber glass stuff. Then there is the packing.

The inner pipe fits very tightly to the endcaps and this may make it hard to put back together.

PS. What year do you have it fitted to?

If it's got fibrous packing, it'll need to be dismantled for repacking from time to time anyway...

I think the inlet pipe diameter of the Scorpion is 51mm ( but will check if you are interested )
