A couple of months ago I fitted a Leo Vince can to my 1998 Blade. This was a straight swap for the original, so a straight bolt on job. When I had fitted it I found that there we some small gaps between the (bolt on) end of the can & the flange end on the downpipes. I called the UK importer of Leo Vince & they said a gasket was available to order which will plug any gaps.
To cut a long story short, the gasket arrived (all the way from Italy), & works great, but it’s one of those soft metal compound type things which compresses & squashes when you tighten everything up.
So, going forward, does anyone know if these are readily available elsewhere? Did anyone else have this problem when bolting on a new can? I’ve check the Honda spares & from what I see there is nothing available as standard to do the job.
