Yes Dougl I did. These headers are very tightly tucked in, feed back has told me that heat is not an issue even when wearing plastic water proof pants. No bike mods are required, the system simply slips easily straight into place.
I price the complete system at NZ$1945.00, US$1300.00, AU$1773.00 plus shipping.

@Rocket4me Just to add to the confusion, Reband now makes a pipe for the R3T. I have one on mine and I like it. No heat issues that @1olbull has reported on the CES system. (besides that it is a whole lot better looking)
Billb,
Tell me more about Reband? Where made? Price? Photos? You have my attention.
Thanks,

AWWW, Ya went too far with that last crack - "(besides that it is a whole lot better looking)".
Show me a pix of yours that can compare with the artwork of the CES!
Bull,
Is the CES chrome or is it like the Carpenter and make stainless than gets a little brown? I like the looks of the set on he purple material. Do you have a recent photo on the bike?

Also, Phil, surely the HP diff would be minor (within +/- a few HP) which would be more than covered by the rider's skill factor in a drag race.
So now we are left with best looks and functionality . . .
And Bull, don't forget price and availability....

The CES are ceramic coated inside and out.
Black is also available.
After over a year and 16K miles, the finish has dulled some, but not too bad and they still look good.

Where can I see pix of these Rebands and check prices.
I know I received my CES all the way from OZ packaged unbelievably good, in less than two weeks!
Price was good and likely even better now with the US dollar higher.
Found an old thread - at $1800 they look to be close to the same cost as the CES at $1700 in AUD money.

Bull,
Tasty looking bike. From the photos the can/muffler looks like a slightly different color..just the lighting or are they different. Did you need a new ECU map? With today's dollar what do you think on price with everything including heat shields? I 'll say again...nice bike man!! Oh yea...sound good? Too loud for cops?

They are indeed. behind the header is stainless - header is ceramic coated inside and outside for better cooling.
They sound AWESOME nice and throaty at normal rpms not too loud for coppers. When you grease it the sound is a deep Ferrari sound and may get some unwanted attention.
With the airfreight shipping from OZ, I paid under $2000 for the whole enchalada.
You should contact Leslie and Trevor at: cesracing@bigpond.com.au
They are stand-up folks, friendly, honest, helpful and produce a great product!
