A couple of months ago I wrote an e-mail to Leo Vince asking for information on making an exhaust for the 1125R/CR. I never heard from (Figured as much), but I checked their site to see if there was anything new and I came across the "Underbody Exhaust", this would be perfect for the 1125. I hope they offer something for our bikes, looks like the one in the picture is designed for the new FZ8, hopefully the "can" is universal in design....

If there's not one that is 100% finished, I wouldn't hold my breath on them (or any company) starting development for the Buell.

That is actually really cool! It looks like it would be pretty easy to adapt to the 1125 series.

But talk about taking a page out of Buell's book. This is the first top 5 motorcycle exhaust company that that I know of that independently developed and advertises specifically for under-slung exhausts. It's the dawn of a new age...

(Akrapovic has an underslung exhaust but specifically for the KTM RC8, which they were requested by KTM?)

I saw that exhaust at the Cycle World show and my first thought was that might be very cool under an 1125. Hell, D_adams already has a downpipe for sale.

Frankly, it wouldn't take much effort for Leo Vince to adapt this can to our bikes just like Jardine, FMF, HMF, HR1 etc. did. Depending on materials, their slip-ons can be reasonably priced.
