LeoVince- LV-14 R for Z 1100
Italian exhaust brand LeoVince has developed a new application- the LV-14 R for the Kawasaki Z 1100. " Designed to give the motorcycle a more assertive and sporty sound, the LV-14 R reinterprets the naked and road-sport world with a more direct, incisive character inspired by road riding. " We designed the LV-14 R for those who demand immediate response, a more aggressive style, and an engaging sound. " It combines design, technology, and a strong racing influence, transforming every ride into a more intense and personal riding experience with distinctive features including an asymmetrically cut end-cap and hand-laminated 2x2 prepreg carbon fibre with high-temperature-resistant resin which is then vacuum-cured in an autoclave. " The matt finish protects against UV rays and enhances the exhaust ' s dynamic lines, becoming the ideal resonance chamber for its deeper, sportier sound. We manufacture the
body from AISI 304 stainless steel to ensure strength, durability, and a consistently top-notch look." Additional features include hand-welded TIG seams that highlight the " meticulous craftsmanship, while the carbon fibre bracket ensures excellent mechanical strength and contributes to weight reduction. The laser-etched LV logo completes the design with a precise and recognizable detail.
