Jenn Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Hey All! Back to bikes and TMBF after 10/12 year break. Just fitted a Leo Vince Corsa exhaust to my Ninja and it is hella loud (not gonna lie, I love it), but it turns heads and some of them look mad I believe legal limit is 74db for exhausts (boring). There is nothing on the Leo Vince website to say that it’s not road legal (unless you’re in California and I’m definitely not) and I can’t really find anything online but I just thought I’d check with you knowledgeable bunch! Basically a straight pipe with some attempt at muffling the sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Welcome back It will probably say not for road use somewhere on the exhaust! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenn Posted June 8, 2023 Author Share Posted June 8, 2023 Thanks Rennie, yeah I thought it would say it somewhere as I was purchasing it or with the product but it doesn’t. I’m assuming it’s fine, just don’t fancy getting in to trouble for it so thought I’d get some advice. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennie Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Depends how loud it is I suppose, some people get away with loud pipes for years, others get pulled all the time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Frog Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Just popped on to the bay of E and found this. If you have the reference number for your pipe you should be able to turn it down a little if you wish. Hope that helps. Cheers Ian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullscreenaging Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Your looks like it’s not road legal. Top one with no baffle says not approved. Bottom one has a baffle and approved E pass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenn Posted June 9, 2023 Author Share Posted June 9, 2023 @fullscreenaging @Ian Frog @rennie yep, it’s definitely NOT road legal Probably naive but didn’t realise that ‘Homologation: Not ECE approved’ meant (in lay terms) not road legal… you live an learn I guess! Gonna see if I can find a baffle to fit to see if that helps at all. If not I’ll see if I can find a road legal one I like. thanks for all the help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bud Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 A lot of biosecurity the cat left on are not too loud. But it really depends how friendly your MOT tester is. If it's significantly louder than stock, they can fail it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
