 I would recommend doing an on line search using the part number, and asking the seller for a discount, you'd be surprised by what you can get, also keep an eye on eBay.
 I just purchased a full termignoni exhaust system for my 1100 and got a big discount just by asking.

 My new to me M1100S came with Leo Vince mufflers with no Db killers, is there an economical alternative to the Leo Vince ones that cost $110 a pair?

 It is just the Db killers that I am after! Sorry for the ambiguity!

2) Press the switch up until the display will read "UNIT     SET"
3) Hold the switch down until display reads "US". Release switch.
4) Press the switch down until you get to the desired setting.

 After reading about cutting down Db killers to achieve a desired sound level I decided to forgo the full Db killer and go straight to the short version. I ordered 2 bronze bushings that have flanges that are 2 inches in diameter and inner diameters of 1 1/2 inches. I drilled and tapped holes next to the flange and bolted them into the Leo Vince pipes with a lock nut on the inside.
 The sound level is still fairly robust butt no longer has the sharp edge that it had, the sound is round and mellow butt not very conservative!
 If I decide I want more attenuation I can braze some washers or tubes to the bushings. For now the sound quality is quite nice, and I have 16 bucks into it so far!

I went to the local dealership tow days ago to have my rear tire replaced, and waited and watched them doing it...
Bad mistake ... I got to hear the sound of exhausts on different bikes there,  all of them are termis.. and now I found myself just finished reading this whole thread and thinking about which slip ons to get   Grin

Okaay .. I finally stop resisting the temptation to get a new exhaust. I contacted some of our sponsors, but I found out that there's an Arrow dealer here who also sells other brands. After researching the web for sound example of Arrow, SC, Zard and LeoVince, I visited the shop today. He deosn't have Arrow in stock but have LeoVince, SC Project and some other brands that I don't remember.

Anyway, I ended up bought Leo Vince One EvoII Carbon slip-ons  Grin

When I got home from the store, I installed the LV slip-ons with my daughter. BTW, I weighed the slip-on on a bathroom scale. The stock slip-on weigh 4 kg each, while the LV weigh 2 kg each. Don't know how accurate or inaccurate the scale is, but that's the result I got.

After the installation, which was easy... I started the engine, with the db killers in the slip-ons. It's louder than stock slip-ons and has deeper (bass) sound than stock but I think it's not that much louder.

Then out of curiosity I removed the db killers and started the engine. Now, it's much louder than stock  Grin I really like the deep sound and the growl.  waytogo So I decided to leave the db killers out and see how it's like tomorrow for commuting. If it's too loud and sets off cars alarm in the office parking lot, I'll replace the db killer. But for now, I like this new deep, bass and loud sound. Dolph
