I have always thought the orange tank looks better.
Is that geenish blue thing a boogie board?
Dunlop rubber for the feet, they have a D designation too?

I like the quote on the plate. Mount your exhausts however you prefer. It looks normal, I see what you mean by following the curve of the duckbill. The only people that would notice would be other SD'ers.

How are you fixing them at that angle? On my titanium system the carbon hangers and the spring clips dictate a vertical position. You don't get any choice. Do you have bolt fixings where the silencers join the exhaust pipes so you can lock them at any angle? If you fitted them like this with a single seat they would look splayed out. They look right vertical on my bike but it's just a matter of taste I suppose.

Hi bick they are the spring fixings (under slight tension) but im using the akra mounts in the subframe .... problem is when I put the two brothers pipes on a few years ago the akra mounts kept twisting so I had them welded in the subframe at an angle good for the two bros pipes (slight mistake lol) so iv put tge strapps for these akras aback to front to mach the angle of the mounts

Could you do me a favour matey and just measure the length of the sleeve? The cans I'm looking at don't have the cone and I can get the inlet pipe length made to order.

I do have the Akra Y-piece already, although I'm not sure whether off an SD or SDR - should it be obvious ? My bike's a standard '07 SD.

I have the Akra mounting brackets already too. I used to have TubeTech 2T-R on it see.

The lenght is 13.5" matey and the akra y peice is not obvious its only coz I had tge 2 side by side I noticed
