GPify the Yamaha Fazer FZ8 with LeoVince
Mon, 05 Jul 2010Here is what LeoVince has to say about the new Fazer8 and FZ8 exhausts:
Quick off the mark with 3 exhaust options launched for Yamaha's brand new 800cc Fazer and FZ8 models, LeoVince promise you less weight, better looks and improved performance.
These new Fazers, with their R1 engines, albeit downgraded to a smaller 800cc capacity, have been designed by Yamaha to give more bottom end power. LeoVince have finely tuned their new slip-on GP-PRO and SBK-FACTORY exhausts to further increase both power and torque throughout the whole rev range, and endow the bike with a much improved sports sound - plus a removable db baffle for increased throatiness.
Tech specs (tested on a new bike at LeoVince factory in Italy)
Power: Stock 93bhp at 9900rpm. LeoVince 98bhp at 10150rpm
Torque: Peak stock 7.3. LeoVince 7.6
Immediate power and torque gains from 3500rpm, with a smooth increase all the way up to the redline at 11100rpm
Choose from LeoVince's superb megaphone style all stainless GP-PRO, manufactured from 9 separate outer rings all beautifully hand welded with a titanium-look finish, or the SBK-FACTORY versions that are full titanium with carbon fibre tailcones, with a choice of titanium casing, or carbon fibre casing. All versions are supplied with link pipe for easy connection to the stock pipe, carbon fibre supports and full mounting kits. No modfication is required, and all exhausts are designed at the factory to work with stock fuel settings.
