    Anyone got hi-level Leo Vince pipes fitted to their VTR? Looking to buy
    some, or another make, so anyone with ANY hi-levels please give your
    comments?

    TIA

    I don't think that'll worry the form over function people.

  3. Speak to the guy at Revolution (Roger). I've forgotten the address etc.
    He's the dog's bollocks with VTRs, and he told me high level pipes will
    lose performance.

    Yes I have, he set up my suspension for me.
    Well, he told me I just got to make sure I get them Dynoed if I fit them,
    and ignore what the
    manufacturers claim.

    They move the centre of gravity of the bike up higher therefore making
    the bike less stable.

    Had some Mig High level carbon jobbies fitted to mine, they looked good and
    sounded better than stick cans.
    Debaffled them and they were noisy.
    Sold them to some one in Sweden

    I had a leo vince barbie bell fitted to my mountain bike and when I
    dynoed it power was up 0.125 bhp. Not bad for 2.99 from halfords.
