I just bought a new Leo Vince zx pipe that has an E stamp. There is no restriction in the head pipe. Does anyone know if Leo Vince used a restriction at the silencer?

My restricted ZX only had the header restriction and then some junk in the convergent cone if you wanna count that.

There is nothing in the header but it has an e stamp. No signs that anything was taken out of the header. I'll pull the silencer just to be sure

No small weld scar inside the flange?
Maybe a fake e mark to trick the police?

The box is marked as well as the pipe but there is no weld scar inside the flange. Looks just like my US spec pipe except it doesn't look like it has ever been mounted. I even ran my finger around inside the flange and don't feel a rough spot anywhere. I'll pull the silencer just because I need to be sure but I'm kinda puzzled lol

My Technigas has an E mark and came without any form of restriction.

hahaha...My question is: What is the likely-hood that it is not a China clone? I am not joking. Fram oil filter company was one of the first China "illegal" clone victims. Not sure of current corporate status, but willing to bet that Fram is now Chinese. (I converted to Donaldson filter supply, from UK in the late 80's)
You have a few possibilities:
* USA shipped "E", but no restrictions
* Technigas marks everything "E", and pays off officials
* Technigas mismarked EU/UK/USA products. (Another way to fool authorities)
* Honest mistake? (We make big bucks on this falsehood)
Look at both ends and give us dimensions...

I'll pull the silence and see if there is anything there. Looks just like the other one I have except for the e stamp and it is for a short case. Got to toss it on a bike to see if it clears the wheel on the Eton
