LEOVINCE X3 for SUZUKI DR-Z 400 S/SM 2001 - 2008

Ultimately I’m very satisfied with product. The dislikes are minor compared to the likes. LV impresses me as a company that’s cares how their

I bought the slip on unit for my Suzuki DRZ S model.Let’s start with the likes which there’s more of: price is very fair compared to other top brands. I matched up the carburetor with a JD Jetting kit with air box mod and aftermarket air filter, runs perfect for my higher elevation region. Leo Vince customer relations is top shelf. I had a problem right away with one of the end cap screws breaking off upon removal so I could put one of the provided silencing baffles in along with the spark arresting screen. I then broke off the easy out tool in the broken screw. I asked LV if they could send out an end plate and I’d install that to complete the repair. After a little search for shipping sticker numbers in the original packaging LV sent me a new complete muffler/silencer unit. That’s outstanding! I love the selection of said baffles accompanied with the system.
Dislikes:the short baffle makes the note to loud,the bike runs so much stronger than the long one which is quiet but reduces felt acceleration. Oh well,it’s not a race bike. Lastly the muffler clamp doesn’t secure the unit securely enough. I had to fab up a heat resistant cushion and the muffler moves around to much for my preference.
