Le mans 3 exhaust
« on: December 19, 2020, 08:58:12 PM »
Hi all

Wondering if any one has fit the upswept lafranconi competition mufflers for a series 1 or 2 lemans on to a lemans 3

I have seen a few pics but was also told due to the longer swingarm it wont fit at the shock indent

Hoping that its able to be done as that is the look I want
Thanks for thinking

  Wouldn't a small exhaust pipe extension fix that problem ?  Peter

Here is my LaFranconi Competzione mufflers on my Le Mans III. These fit straight to the headers on mine.

The ones in the pic of the white mk3 are made for the mk3
I am hoping to fit the mk1/2 mufflers..they are a little smaller in diameter and sweep up a little more also are tucked a little tighter to the side .. Did I mention available in black which is also what I want.. The only other black options I've seen are mistral and zard
Both nice but I like the lafranconi look

I’d call MG Cycle and ask them if it will work if no one on here can give a definitive answer. I could measure mine and size them up to my 1000S which is basically the same as your bike but I’d hate to be off.
