1313, I'm glad you decided to get them...looks like you were quite pleased.  We did a sound test with my M1100s with LV and a Hyper with termis and they were practically identical.  I have been quite pleased with mine, I am glad you are enjoying them.

Thanks man! Your bike inspired me and made my decision easy. I just wish the proper exhaust springs were included in the package. The right ones are on their way.. They should be here Wednesday. No riding until then.  :'(

Just FYI for anyone purchasing the LV Oval EvoII exhaust.. make sure the exhaust springs are 1" and not 1.5". The 1.5" exhaust springs are not the right ones. If you're in the US, call LVUSA and they'll fix you right up. They know about the problem. A few left Italy with the wrong ones.

Slightly better pictures from this morning's mini-ride to listen to the exhaust. I am going to start wearing ear plugs now.  [evil]
It still looks a bit crooked. Final adjustments are not done yet.

I am still without my exhaust springs until tomorrow but I did do some "light" cruising around yesterday. Ear plugs were a necessity. They still sound good as hell slightly muffled in my helmet. Love it!!

Just like my Termi kit the dealer installed in that one side is lower than the other. It bothered me so I loosened everything off and adjusted them then tightened.

gearhead, I don't know if you read my other replies but final adjustments have not been made yet. The correct exhaust springs are arriving Wednesday. I'll get everything tightened up and aligned to my liking.

See reply #8 on the first page.  ;)

The baffles are out. They were the first thing to go.  [thumbsup] I ordered them from Monsterparts. I paid $828 shipped.

Is the $828 Carbon or Aluminum from Monsterparts?  tks in advance.

awesome thread...

i wonder how long the 696 could run with no muffs. what kind of dammage would be done to the bike?
would i be able to replace the cans with just straight pipe? or THESE?

The LV's look really good on both of these bikes, glad both of you are enjoying them.  ;)

1313, are you going to run it with or without the heat shields?  I think the carbon cans look a little better without, but that is just my opinion.  Either way, good choice.
