    Out of those pics I like number 3, however number 2 would look alot better if you rework the angle a bit maybe closer to the frame

    The issue is with the RR4 headers they are very long and dont join until quite far back which pushes the link pipe towards the back of the bike more.. I dont think I can do much about this which is perhaps another reason why a low slung stubby is the best option..

    It may be worth giving Mark Hill at MHP Exhausts a bell. He has done fantastic work on my race bikes and their exhaust systems.

    One either side was something I considered :) would be easy to do the way the RR4 header split around the engine :)

    Thanks for the link Robin will contact them also :)

    number 2 does it for me, but forget doing track days with it on, unless you get your old exhuast to fit and make a bracket to hang it and change for trackdays, just like I al doing with the akrapovic... will post a pic up later tonight what my 2 look like
