Hello all
I have ordered a leo vinci exhaust and I have now seen the SP4Y website saying that without stiffer springs the bodywork can hit the pipe.Has anyone experienced this,I have the standard springs on the stiffest setting but I do weigh 17 stone. Question Question Question

Eat,drink & be merry for tommorow we buy stiffer springs.

i think with the leo and ginelli you are ok as the pipes sit inside the body work, the pm sticks out the back slightly so may hit the lower body two up

The LeoV points downwards slightly when standing, and leveles with the rider's weight, where the PM pipe points upwards slightly. I think this is the difference, my LeoV has never touched the bodywork.
