Fellow Rocketeers,

Have any of you bought and installed the Dave Platt Short Custom Pipes with the Cat delete crossover? Reason for asking is I'm wondering if anyone has had any problems with the fitting and alignment of the pipes and more importantly the alignment of the slash cut on LHS pipe?
 

I have them ( not the outlaws ) on my roadster. No problems at all.. fitted really easily in about an hour including the crossover.
 
Allan, Could you post a picture of the pipes taken from the rear of the bike for me please? Set I have the LHS pipe the slash cut is out of alignment by about 35 degrees clockwise (does that make sense) The slash cut on the RHS is vertical once installed but not the LHS. Have sent them back and an on going saga is slowly unfolding with blame being pointed at me for installing the LHS hanger upside down, back to front, wrong part, twisting end can when attaching bracket...etc... Just looking for an installation to make a comparison with - Thanks in advance!
