Hey guys I recently purchased a used Leo vince for my F800s. It was hardly used and in good condition. I already installed it, but is there anything I should have checked on the bike that it still works? I noticed my catalytic converter has been removed. Im just scared the bike runs lean/rich and I damage something. Should I be worried or is a slip-on plug and play?

Hi Tazz Because the LAMBDA

Hi Tazz

Because the LAMBDA sencor is on the header part and due to the fuel injection you dont need to do anything.

You might use more fuel as one tends to be happier with the throttle.

Hi RuanThanks for the reply,

Hi Ruan

Thanks for the reply, puts my mind at ease a little.  I've scoured the internet for posts relating to slip-ons and a few other manufacturers (and other brands of motorcycle) recommended a "retune of the engine" after installing a slip-on.  So I was just worried I might need the same.

No need to retune

Sometime it is advisable to retune when you fit an entire syst and have performance filter as well, however with just the endcan it's about sound only and the little bit of weight saving so just fit and make some noise Cool
