Yup as I said in my earlier post they aren't the loudest of cans but certainly are loud enough for most tastes - I am more than happy with mine

Nope, not long until I can

to long for my liking ....

nice though

LOL, well I'd have preferred them slightly shorter, but at the moment, I'm more than happy. In fact they are shorter than the M4s on the last VRap.

If I bash em, they'll get shortened then, not that I'm intending on that.

Sweet, I'll give you a comparison soon love.

Cheers Mark.

Thought you'd like Mark.

Although the original cans weren't overly ugly, they were very heavy and massive. No wonder the Raptor has a reputation for being a wheelie machine, its all down to the weight in the ass end!

TBH there isn't much difference in length between the Leo Vince and the original cans, but the weight difference is astonishing, and so much more pleasing on the eye

Money well spent IMO, for a grand total of £150 inc the polishers charge.

All I need now is the screen, which really is needed on this particular bike. It came with R&Gs, a hugger and a belly pan. The rad was repaired for free under warranty. All in all considering I still need the screen, I am still coming well under the asking price from the dealers, cause I haggled money off

I got the non molested bike I was looking for and now have the bike I intended to have, ebay purchases are just a can of worms, luckliy this bike is a baby, so its never had all the mods from muppets done that need attention.

the weight saving is all down to being "EU-free", so when you do wheelie it now, you can't blame the heavy pipes.......

the only thing about the raptor that i dont like is how close to the seat the rear tire is
