LV-10 Black Edition - with racing DNA

Italian exhaust brand LeoVince says that " competition has always been in our DNA since 1954 . We conceived the LV-10 Black Edition through the experience of collaborating with the best teams in the world championships . We have brought lightness and performance to the road to allow you to experience the true race feeling of the track ". Celebrating 70 years , and still made in Europe , the Black Edition is finished in a ceramic-based , high temperature-resistant paint on high quality AISI 304 stainless steel . " We chose this material because durability and resistance to corrosion are essential to guaranteeing the race feeling that riders seek . The deep matt black ceramic-based paint enhances the shape with a more aggressive look and delivers the best possible resistance to high temperatures and scratches ". Also made in AISI 304 , the end cap has a shotblasted finish . " Strong and tough , we have chosen it for its optimal resistance to the nitric acid that is present in the exhaust gases . The rear AISI 304 stainless steel mesh on the outlet enhances the racing spirit , and the ' voice ' of the LV-10 Black
Edition is compliant but powerful , even at low revs . " The conical shape allows the high temperatureresistant packing material to expand freely inside the muffler , eliminating friction and promoting gas flow . Though developed through track and race team testing , it is also perfect for small displacement motorcycles ". Additional features include reduced weight , handmade TIG welds and laser-cut logo and stainless steel bracket .
