I got mine, and am very happy with them.
The bike seems to run so much smoother now, maybe a minor power upgrade, but not real noticable... I had the TPS fixed the day before I fitted them, so I don't know if that had anything to do with it running smoother though.

As for how far they stick out...

Not a great video, was using my phone and the pic keeps freezing, but gives you an idea. I have seen some others on YT that stick out further!!!

Re: Leo vince

I put my Leo's on a couple of weeks ago and couldn't be happier. I haven't noticed any gain in power, but that's not why I got them in the first place.

The main thing is that they completely alter the image and feeling of the bike, and turn it into a bady boy I feel so much tougher riding it now

I have to admit that I worried a bit about them sticking out too much, but they're just perfect. Get them now! I didn't get round to taking any pictures yet, maybe sometime next week.

Re: Leo vince

The Two Bros. Carbon cans sound much, much better, IMHO. Don'l leap until you've heard them. There are several clips on this board; should be easy to find.

If that was directed to me, I fit them myself, and it was pretty easy, very straight forward to do, and did it in a couple of hours.

They basically slip together, and each pipe is held together with a spring (sort of like a silicon film inside each of the pipes for sealing)... Only the Cat eliminator pipe has a clamp where it joins the header pipe.

Re: Leo vince

I love mine. I drove through an alley the other day and almost needed to change my shorts. Here's another pic of how far they stick out.
